Jamie Carragher committed the fairly familiar mistake of listing an Irish footballer as "British" on twitter today. Carragher was responding to tweets about his Daily Mail column in which he lists the best foreign XI of the modern era when he listed one R.Keane as a "Brit":
.@adempsey1 Keane would always get in my premier league 11 but this is just a team of foreign stars no Brits included.

.@mattiopontio @Iainsh No error on my part and a lesson to be careful tweeting when your hungover!

This was a mistake that was often made of Denis Irwin too. Keane would probably be more upset that Carragher is on twitter.
Carragher's foreign eleven was:
Schmeichel, Zabaleta, Kompany, Vidic, Evra, Ronaldo, Vieira, Toure, Silva, Drogba and Henry.
