- Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane delivers a brilliant story about Sir Alex Ferguson's managerial ability, with how he used to deal with Eric Cantona!
This is from our #CadburyFC show with Cadbury Ireland! - Sport
Say what u like about Roy but he's never boring.
Indeed. He's the Katie Hopkins of football.
100%
@Darius Beaumont A good heart? lol, ok. There's plenty that would disagree with that. Roy spends most of his time these days gossiping and back-stabbing like an old woman.
As an Arsenal fan I totally. Viera and Keane would use most midfield players today as door mats.
@@leighsymons5619 They really wouldn't though. The game's moved on, as it always does.
Every team would love a Roy Keane in the middle of their midfield.
even a synchronised swimming team? actually he does have lovely legs - so yes - you're right
tiarnan You gay or something 😂 weird guy
and he refuse to join the national team
@@dios.9586 he has the finest of legs. Some say Zeus himself carved them from granite and placed them upon his body in a beautiful ceremony atop of Mount Olympus.
mybackpocket Yeah but would hate him in the dressing room 😂
Now everyones rocking trainers with suits. Cantona was years ahead in both fashion and football🤣
And life too
tbf he's french, fashion is at the top of their priorities
@@abdulfattah4276
To stand out, not fashion per se.
desfefe is that a bad compliment to French people? Lol
@@abdulfattah4276
I mean if you look at Luis Vuitton, you'll understand what I mean lol. I never thought the french were fashionable, but that they just wanted to stand out wearing crazy things. Unique is fashion apparently.
“Lads it’s Tottenham”
I suppose nowadays spurs say it about us
Classic. Really gets to the _Spursy_ nature of THFC :)
@JDMH mate after last weekend we should be quiet
destiny killer stop twerking for Tottenham fans they got battered last night
@@destinykiller1975 nah. They went out of the fa cup against us, the lost the last 2-3 games against us. They're broke, with worse owners, and we are building a far more exciting project. Their main striker might as well leave them. Lol spurshite will keep up with an empty trophy cabinet
You don't have to be a captain to be a leader. Teams need to listen to this man 👌🏻
Saffron Forever the Man Utd team right now need to listen to that line.
@@thebizness5596 I was fed up of listening to him years ago.
I don't know why people complain about Man. U's leadership, they've got Pogba 🤣.
@@dinerouk why u here then?
Lies again? Ryu Ken
Had to replay the start cos I thought I heard him wrong but after close analysis that was defo a compliment to Fergie!
Sam Woods same 😂
Me as well ahaha
Fergie created Roy....in terms of Roy idolising Fergies absolute desire and obsession to win - you even heard Gary say they were mirrors of each other - so Fergie became Roy's football father...and then instead of letting him go softly as he was coming to the end of his career - he shanked him - and tried to get the Manchester crowd on his side by leaking lies to the press about Roy...but the fans were too smart for Fergie and too loyal to their greatest captain of all time...So as much as Roy despises Fergie for what he did during the last 6 months of his Utd career - he'll still always love him for the previous 12 years - its a kinda like a Luke Skywalker / Darth Vader thing...
You need to watch the rest of the interview lol
@@tiarnan76 that's a nice fairy tale mate.
man, I really wished Fergie and Roy would bury the hatchet. Roy should have an statue outside OT, thats the honest truth, hes the most influential player this club has ever had, Best, sir bobby, robbo included. True united fans got heartbroken when they saw the treble team anniversary without Keano, that was an abomination
he'll never be forgotten for his plays on the pitch. he's absolutely a legend for mu.
juan altredo couldn’t agree more. It’s time for the two proud men to bury the hatchet. United Legends.
@@niallmartin9063 what is the problem between ferguson and keane?
Keane is the best leader I've seen in the modern game. I'm not a utd fan.
@@victorformosa2825, 100%, an absolute colossus, that demanded and played at the very top of his game, An ic0nic Midfielder (hold, pass, run), as good as any in Europe when he Played......Up the Chels...
Eric was very French.
Beautifully, magically French.
Our Frenchman
Roy Is a grade A doochebag. Controversial comments that are borderline unacceptable. Big talk for a bang average player
@@alexindy3504 You clearly have never watched Roy playing in his prime. Roy was one of the best midfielders in the EPL in his day.
Harvey Smith His comments are unacceptable and not justified by the fact he played well 20 years ago
@@alexindy3504 Lot's of Roy's comments can be seen as unacceptable but so was your comment calling him "a band average player."
Two wrongs don't make a right.
@@alexindy3504 You never have seen Keane play. I am a liverpool fan but Keane and Vieira were two of the greatest midfielders of the last 28 years of the premier league.
Anyone who's spent time being managed by Ferguson and Clough is worth listening to. I could listen to Roy Keane all day!
100% agree. He talks a lot of sense..Problem is people let hatred get in the way, and cannot admit what good sense comes out of his mouth.
@@gditembu?
haha, i just did for staight 3 hours today. impressive
He seems perfect for television. Direct, outspoken, little or no filter.
Imagine how man United players feel now under Olé. He's got pogba performing for us goodness Olé's at the wheel.
Newcastle fan here. That United team of around 1998-2000 was so great. Never down and out always had a goal in them and a never say die attitude. One of my favourite football teams of all time and Roy Keane would walk into any 11 I’d ever pick. Professional, commited and always did the job. He’s not very diplomatic but I have massive respect for him. It’d definitely make you a better player to play with him. If you were having a lapse in concentration and commitment you’d look over at him and slap yourself back into focus.
That Man U won a CL? The one the won vs Bayern was so undeserved!
@@conradchandler9973 But they won it! Liverpool didn't deserve to win in Istanbul but they did! That's football
@@conradchandler9973 Had Keane and Scholes out in the final ? Lost 0 games in 11 in the CL but undeserved? Behave 😂
@@conradchandler9973 lucky uefa changed it so the top 2 got in. They weren’t champions
The thing that used to always'd impressed me about him was that under moments of stress and during high pressure games or games with high pressure moments. How he could nearly always control every pass given in to him at speed because of the opposition attack. And then play it simply, calming the tempo of the game down to build their own attack. Or, at will pull a whole team of players forward by determination and example to make a difference. Captain's don't get much better.
Never a boring interview with this man, much respect to him always speaks his mind, unlike most players.
Could listen to Roy tell stories all day. He's got a gift for it.
I really like Roy when he’s not bitter. He is a big man, but sometimes becomes consumed by perceived, past injustices. Guess, we all do & this guy is only human too. Best wishes to him. He was a real force of nature🙌👊👌
He still is a force of nature
Eric changed it all for United, on the pitch he was magical and made things click, off the pitch, the rebel in him made the club popular throughout the world even though Serie A was the Best League then..
Very good point. Eric was the catalyst. he was such a skilful, stylish, classy player head and shoulders above everyone else. Beckham, Giggs, Scholes and co would watch him train and be in awe of him. He was their hero. I remember watching Eric at a beach football event years after he retired and he was head and shoulders above everyone else even then in terms of skill. During the event a group of United fans were constantly singing his name. At the end Eric received man of the match and a big crate of nice champagne. What did he do? He ran across and gave it to the group who were singing his name...That's Eric for you. Coolness personified.
To be fair, I wouldnt tell Eric what to wear. Cantona did his own thing.
He was a tortured artist that would produce magical moments.
@@bighands69 And the greatest kung fu kick ever caught on film
“WHEN THE SEA GULLS FOLLOW THE TRAWLER, ITS BECAUSE THEY THINK SARDINES WILL BE THROWN INTO THE SEA.THANK VERY MUCH”.
“WHEN THE SEA GULLS FOLLOW THE TRAWLER, ITS BECAUSE THEY THINK SARDINES WILL BE THROWN INTO THE SEA.THANK VERY MUCH”. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!!!
Being hard as nails is another reason not to
He is very direct, honest and truthful
Nice to see the respect is still there even of he doesn't really like him anymore
I wish there was a player like Cantona these days, he was so entertaining in every way.
Haaland/zlatan have the character . Darwin might have the talent
@@DonFelixGallardo Haaland bores me to death. Most players do these days, they are like robots.
@@GordonCaledonia I agree all the maverick tendencies get coached out of them these days. Haaland if started his career 10-15 years ago could defo be an Eric. He has that slightly crazy look in his eyes. Obv Eric was better dribbler and passer than Haaland I’m just talking character here
@@DonFelixGallardo Norwegians aren't that crazy.
You still see some crazy stuff in the Italian league, but the red cards just get dished out. Gattuso would be banned all the time now.
Cantona was actually a fair player, not that dirty, people remember the hooligan getting kicked, but Eric let his skills do the talking. But he was so eccentric that today people would think he was mentally ill, but he was just French! Just Eric!
They are really drip feeding these Roy Keane Clips
Theyre all in the main uncut one
It’s for people who don’t have the time to watch 2 hours.
harry sivri only has time to watch 12 10 minute videos 🥴
Mr Nedlop do you know why genius? The beauty of that is because you can watch 10 videos over the course of a week or two. Ain’t that amazing? spastic
Why complain
Roy Keane....... Warrior......Legend........ I wish he was 20 again
Roy Keanes Era in United full of warriors
Love listening to Roy. Always talks about the strength of character and work ethic. Very simple but sadly lacking in many players today. That is what makes winners.
If Roy criticised or brutally exposed my wrong decisions, I wouldn't feel offended, instead I'd shake his hands!
His monologue deliverance is unmatched and makes you want to listen all day!
Love keano just one if the most honest people you can meet, just says it as it is.
Keane was the natural successor to Cantona both being very driven players with excellent standards. But my heart is still in Scholes - what a phenomenal player England is yet to reproduce.
I would love to see MANU play back in the days, man, they had Temperaments like a rugby teams, brilliant boys.
Even more was the team that won the first Premier League. Cantona, Hughes, Brian Robson, Giggs, Kanchelskis (MASSIVELY underrated), Ince, Pallister, Bruce, etc
The team was full of leaders and men made of steel, and was a RIDICULOUSLY fast team. Watch United tearing apart Norwich in the 92/93 season. Search for this on CZcams:
"Norwich City 1-3 Manchester United (92/93) | Premier League Classics | Manchester United"
"you don't have to captain to be a leader" well said
I never mind Roy always liked him and I'm a lifelong Utd fan.But he sounds interesting to me love hearing him tell the stories of years gone by:)
When sir Alex passes Keane will have the longest tribute message
What makes you so sure Keane won't pass first?
@@naajee90 because Alex Ferguson is thirty years older than Roy keane so it is extremely likely that he will die before him
It doesn't depend on age buddy 🤓
From Cork to Barcelona - the lads done well himself. Listen and take heed kids
Cantona was a baller but he was tough as nails he had a mean streak that’s why people respected him
Never saw him bullied by anyone on the pitch ever
ROY SPEAKS THE TRUTH Brilliant Man
Here after our 1-6 beat againts Spurs and that "Lads, it's Tottenham" hits different.
You're still small tottenham
Not even Jose can transform little spurs into a big club 😂
Lol what’s happening now
3-1 revenge complete should have been 4-1
I used to play DM in the day and Keano was one of the players I used to watch to try to emulate because he did the simple things well.
DM ??🙄. Not good enough to just play CM?
@@ruaidhrim2678
What make you think playing defensive mean lesser a player?
Toff.
@@ruaidhrim2678 Dont think you understand how football works.
Is the striker always the best player and the keeper the worst in your logic?
@@ruaidhrim2678 cdm is one of the most hard working position beg you shut up
That era was filled with leaders. Keane, Becks, Neville, Giggs....struggle to find even 1 these days
Led by a scotsman though
Wouldnt put Beckham down as one of those leaders, have you heard the man talk? xD.
@@daaichommie708
Yeah but he was captain of England and a leader on the pitch. Work rate is phenomenal.
@@redeemerl5212
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Fergie uniting Great Britain
DaaiChommie He was never a leader but a great player. Knew when to cross the ball, make runs and tackles.
3:24 Gary's Smile #Priceless
Glad he is showing sir Alex respect again I think you must have talk things out great knowledge from Roy by the way
1988 I was taking a flight from East Midlands to either Dublin or Shannon, can’t remember. Knew nothing at all about football although I lived with a stone’s throw of the Forest grounds. Tiny propellor plane, seats down one side, luggage on the other. A pleasant young man took the seat beside me, back row. He was wearing a tracksuit and was had a signed football in his lap. We had a pleasant few words, didn’t talk football then so it was never mentioned. Throughout the flight I realised on this small flight that everyone was craning their necks to look at our seat. As we got off a woman rushed to me and asked it I was his mother? What! I was 35! Absolutely not I answered, probably looking furious.She rushed off as if afraid I was going hit her😂. The following day I saw an article about Roy Keane in the Irish Independent. That’s Roy Keane!!!!!! That’s the most I know of RK. He was a lovely young man in 1988 and I think that he has done quite well for himself in the meantime. Worthy of note, he didn’t even mention that he was from Cork!
I have so much respect for this man
Golden words and stories
He might be a bit contrarian at times but Roy and whoever was the current hotness were always my favourite players. He was special, you loved him if you were a United fan and everyone hated him, he was our captain
Love Roy or hate him he talks a lot of sense.He tells you as it is..He was a great leader on the pitch (Not a Man. United fan)..He played for the shirt, and gave 100%..He expected the other players around him to give the same, if not he would soon let them know..Hes had his moments over his playing days, but remember, hes not the only one..
Hes also bitter
We lost a game and I went in the dressing room first and Roy Keane was second. I liked to go first after the game. I didn't want to speak to anyone as we lost..
I didn't understand English, just the bad words. I heard my name and 'f*** off' by Roy Keane, the best player.
"I knew that was bad so I stood up to him, this idol of Manchester, this great guy who everyone loved, and replied: 'F*** off, you'. I don’t remember what happened next"Gabriel Heinze..
Keane knockout Gabriel Heinze for real..
King Eric 🍺
Keane is right about coaches like Ferguson and Clough. Ya, you need decent players but it’s all about man management. The best teams had coaches that weren’t too technical (the delegated that), but they made sure they understood every player and had a locker room full of leaders
Just like the way Keano played the game he is a delight to watch just talking about the game as well.
Every team needs a Roy Keane. I'm an OK average standard player but I'm a bit lazy and play my best football when I have someone in the team shouting at me. Every team needs an angry RK making sure players are fighting for every ball at the top level.
2 great players Roy was anlegend
Ha ha...suits and trainers. Definitely not a French thing. Definitely a Cantona thing. He's unique.
Keano pure legend gr8 man could listen to keano day an night not a fraid to speak out legend
I'd love to see Roy as United manager one day.
Hmm... Liverpool supporters, are you?
Or at least as an advisor or motivator. Just so the current lads got a earfull & wake up from their slumber.
None of the young players could survive if he becomes MU manager.
He will kill lingard at the first meeting
Once em Glazers are gone and that capital making mentality is reigned in.
Would love it if SAF and Roy Keane could just make amends.
I know it's unlikely, and they're both grown men with their own lives.
But they both brought the best out in each other and gave us some of football's greatest ever moments.
None of us know who was right and who was wrong. But if one of them could put pride to one side and extend an olive branch.
Oh, the joy that would bring to us United fans...
Who is Saf......
Well said.
@maureenlansley671 Super Saf the tech review guy. He and Roy Keane forged a formidable legacy with United in the 90s. He then went on to review tech products.
@@Donalob Appreciate it 👍🏾
The second half it’s a hell of a book it inspired me
In the end, the last chapter of the book he says that he gets stock on the train to Philadelphia instead of getting off in New York once he managed to comeback to New York all his team mate waiting at the station for him were singing...
I won’t say... read the book
I honestly believe he should be the next Man Utd manager, he’ll put fire in their hearts again
I remember seeing Eric on a night out. Grey suit.....and red Nike trainers.
Classic Eric , suit and trainers, but he’s French so no bother, Sir Alex knew that a happy Eric equaled a winning Utd
This demonstrates the unique talent that was Ferguson. Even the best players can't quite explain his articulation.
Roy Keane best of the best!!!
Gary Neville- head nod the whole way through Keane speech in agreement. Lol
Add Maradona in his prime to the Man Utd 21/22 team and they still struggle and are in as battle for top 4.
Add Roy Keane to the Man Utd of today though and they become title challengers.
He was that good a leader and exactly the player their 11 needs right now.
a great group of players with a great manager !
Two legendary players
He's a genius
If you were picking a Premier League all time 11 the first name on that sheet would be Captain................... Roy Keane.
Yes, and Roy would want to be in the other 10 positions as well...
Nah man..................
@David Clinging im not a Utd fan but he would be my all time PL XI Captain. Can you name a better option?
@David Clinging so after all that you didnt name another option! I dont believe that Keane was "one of the best ever" but thats not what you need from your captain. He is an extension of the manager on the pitch and Keane was the perfect example of that for Fergie.
He was more than a hard tackler, you obviously dont understand how important controlling the tempo of a match is through the style and speed of passing. Doing the simple things consistently is not simple in itself.
Also leave Scholes out of it there's nothing romanticised about saying he was one the best midfielders ever. He has been lauded as such by some of the greatest players to ever kick a ball...and they have no reason to heap such praise unless they believe it's true. Go and ask the coaches at La Masia why they use him as the template of a midfielder. You're making yourself sound delusional.
If you were picking 10 men to give your backside a good seeing to the first name would be Captain Roy Keane.
Love the end of that 😂😂
As a City fan, never liked the guy when he was playing. But, what a mistake. Top man. And, I mean MAN.
Me to will never forgive him for what he did to Alfie Harrland but as a pundit on sky sports and now with Micah Richards warming to the guy abit but it’s still there 🔵🔵🔵
And as a United fan I love Micah now he’s retired! What a duo haha
@@tomhickson8313 it was a bad tackle but thats all. If anything it was goof for you as he got sent off
Classic Keano....
Great sofa. "Lads, it's Tottenham" ... great line, presumably that was when they were 3-0 down and came back to win 5-3.
Gar Sm yeah definitely not the 1999 3-1 loss I suppose 🤔
Nice to see him showing respect to the best manager of all time.
He tells it like it is no bull I respect that
So this is who Morrissey was singing about in 1997...”dunking the chamois, just think of the goodwill...the ladder’s a planet, Roy is a star & I am a satellite but that’s alright”...cool. BTW...that was such an AWESOME Morrissey tour...went to 4 shows...Kalamazoo, Ann Arbor, Chicago & Buffalo.
Aaahh yes, the brilliant Morrissey👍
Roy has got the attitude that footballers had in the 1940s. Most of today's footballers are lazy, spoilt, soft, love themselves. Not what I called hard tough men.
@Ze TheGame Too many divers and cheats in today's game. If England had 11 Roy Keane's they would have won a World Cup by now.
@Ze TheGame do you not think Keane could still boss the PL?
yup and a lot are now mentally ill, alcoholics, depressed, homeless, unable to talk about their emotions. people are finally waking up about the fact that fake toughness is silly. i bet you that roy keane cried at home when he was at man utd.
not because he's french, because he's eric
😂😂😂
Eric, The King
He make sence what player he gave it all every game legend he work hard give him undted job wood finish in top four every season
Thank you King Eric!
LEGEND FOREVER ......!!!!!!
Wtf is up with Keane’s voice at 3:29? 😂
🤣🤣🤪✌🏽
Isak Pettersson loool really made me laugh
Helium leak from his microphone
😆
Suit with runners cantona 🙈🙉😛😁 keane legend 😎
lacoste runners haha
As Roy said in his book. Fergie was very lucky to have the squad he had. Born winners.
Fergie made the group…..simple as that.
Honestly Fergusan's greatest achievement was probably the last Prem Cup he won with the team he had, more than half of them weren't what you typically call world class. It speaks a lot to the culture and winning mentality he bought into the team.
Alex put those players together.
Say what you like about Roy Keane, he's articulate, knows his football and both those things always come over in any interview with him
Roy would be a great dinner guest. He would have plenty of great stories and incites to tell you.
He'd tell you to shove your dinner party up your bollocks
Can't tell if you meant insights, or incites as a pun
@@baz3338 PMSL baz baz hahaha
@@Petrolosis Lol. I see what you mean. My bad. I did mean insights. Thanks.
@@YouKevo He would if you were not hungry and wanted to go home early.Good player but nothing above that ...Fergie was right to bin him when he thought he was becoming manager of United which is a good job he never was.Poor poor manager.
Your a genius Roy
Keane say nice things bout Sir Alex hmm...
It was only the last months at United they had conflict
The rest of the interview was much less complimentary towards Fergie.
I believe there conflict was fault on both sides. Both strong willed characters that had to be boss and they clashed. As much of a Utd fan I am I have to say that Ferguson let his ego get in the way, when it came to getting rid of brillant players! Basically Ferguson was like the vince McMahon of football managers you either had to get on with him and he had to be superior or you were gonna get the boot sooner or later.
@@Jonathan-pg2hd I disagree with that he got rid of players when they became toxic to the group, he did say he regretted it with stam
Roy Thomson I mean your probably right but who knows only Alex and the players will know at the end of the day.
His exit is the reason why MU haven’t been MU.
We’ve never got a decent CM to fill his shoe. (We won the 2008 Champion league because of Hargreaves and Carrick in the middle).
Although he’s never rated as the best footballer in the world, what he does is to make the players around him be the best of themselves on the pitch.
It is not coincidental that MU downfall happens when either he is injured or absent.
brilliant
I think we can take a key factor and implement it through all sports Ferguson players management skills was top class, simply by getting to really know his players & by just finding a solution to make it work... I just feel his people skills were top notch, I feel to many coaches don’t know how to get their message across
If this man wasn't one of the greatest futboler he easily could have been a comedian
Great player
Eric's in a league of his own
The most honest guy in football. Says it like it is and doesn't shy away from upsetting woke types
Woke, give over with your shine.. woke 😂
Roy Keane the man was like the iron captain of man united ..won't get players like him Again
“Leave him off, he’s Irish….”
A 100%... a manager manages players' temperament, mindset, culture and ethics. Like Keano said there, the great ones don't really coach or train players day to day... they leave that job to the coaches... so with respect to Ole, i honestly think people forget that he has got those top manager's qualities...
I would argue that Pep, Tuchel, Bielsa they are all tactical coaches... Van Gaal is a good example of a great technical coaches but that is all they are... coaches... I would argue that Klopp amd Pochetino are coaches as well but they have a good balance of tactics and technics.
Ole is a manager, he is never a coach. As long as the players buys into his idea, works their socks off for him and are always enjoying playing for him than that is more than good enough.
So much Business Management skills can be learned from a good Football Manager. A good Manager can delegate, man manage, read his Players/Staff, know when to keep quiet or throw a Football Boot at someone!!!
ROY KEANE A GOOD INSIGHT TO MANAGERS IE CLOUGH AND FERGUSANE
United could do with this man now big time, some way involve with the club.
you've had this guy in your team middle of the park
and now you've pogba
but we still want to have same man utd
It's worse than that; Pogba is injured, he would have been GREAT for us v West Ham. No, our senior MF player right now is... MATIC!!!!!!!!
Pogba couldnt tie roy keanes boots, not even half the player roy was.
Why the hell doesnt Roy have his own podcast man!!!
Id pay good good money for that
You can do whatever you want when you're King Eric!
A knacker .
