Two huge characters football misses today.Love or loathe them.Fucking class acts 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Ad Max Huge rivals and two opposite styles.It was fierce at times but as we get older we respect it more.Not only for the level of intensity but both teams playing out of their skins.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Too true mate 👌🏽
Ad Max I used to say to pals in pub watch and absorb this football.Man Utd were a machine 👏🏽 The treble in 99 if only Bergkamp scored the penalty at Villa park 90 mins too 👀
Not sure class act describes him the best but he was a warrior willing to die for his shirt
I agree mate. I'm a season ticket holder at Utd. those 90s clashes at Highbury and old Trafford. those were the days eh!
Spot on .
Ian Wright is the only player that can make Roy Keane smile.
Ben Carter person*
Def a mutual respect there... You can sense Keane kind of doesn't want to like Wrighty but actually can't help but love him!
Niall Heaton go to bed you sad twat 👍
Add Micah Richards to that now
Viera as well
I've been watching football for 40 years. Roy Keane is the most consistent performer at the highest level I've seen anywhere in any country during that time. Roy Keane = Winner.
Spot on, even when they lost, keane never let his performance below a certain point. true professional
Neutral Observer. I agree bro after watching 28 years of it . Cnt ever remember keano having a bad game.
Agree,but don't forget Denis Irwin. Ferguson has always said it was his best buy.A consist 8 out 10 in every game. Incredible. Liverpool supporter for over forty years now.. you gotta respect the greats and ignore the tribalism sometimes.
Amazing reply. I thought i was the only person who thought this
@@robertpirsig5011 - "even when they lost"
As a neutral observer myself, I remember on one occasion Man U getting stuffed 6-2 by Southampton in a league game. I realise I'm flying in the face of the most relevant statistic here but Keano was the standout player on that field.
If Roy Keane was English, he would have been considered as the best centre midfielder the premium league ever had. No question. I find it hilarious when people compare Gerard to him. Don't get me wrong Gerard was one of the top top players of his time but Keane just controlled the centre of the park like no other. I have been to games were United were up 3-0 in the 80th and Keane would get subbed off and all of a sudden the team completely lose there shape and composure. People seriously underestimate what he brought to that team. He mastered the act of keeping possesion and patience to wait for openings in attack, never phased by playing a banal pass that kept the structure of the team at all times. Critics always go on about the sensational stuff and times he may of lost his temper, but at the back of it all he was a driven selfless leader who put his team first and won everything that could be won.
Same as Paul McGrath (born in London) ... if they played for England they'd both be in the XI.
@@Nautilus1972 Paul McGrath drank far too much unfortunately. Great talent but not a Ferguson standard player.
Great player.
He would be one of the best but the greatest ever was Scholes.
@@keshavsharma7913 they were very different type of players. But if you were in a real battle you would need a Roy Keane.
what a player what a person. the game these days is crying out for players like this guy!
+Danny Muirhead true its all to floppy now
the game these days your barely allowed to tackle. he would be banned well over half the season!
He'd be wasted in this era. I don't mean that in a sentimental way, just his style and personality suited late 90's period so well. Was still quite old school then where players weren't going to the gym or on special micro managed diets. Keane was way ahead as a professional athlete - along with the rest of that united team - in a way that he wouldn't be now. Players aren't better, but they're more precious and better looked after
They are all pampered over paid soft bastards. No leaders in the game anymore.
Ee by gum. In my day "we used to live in a water tank on rubbish tip."
Keane's honesty is his number 1 asset.Any young man should listen to him.What a professional👍👍
I’m a Liverpool fan but have massive respect for Roy Keane.... outstanding player.. one of the prem era greats
Liverpool fan. Have too say Keane one of the most Influential midfield players in our game
absolutely legend status
Roy's the perfect alpha male. He is the man you would want at your side and in your army. The perfect embodiment of Cork steel.
Bollox
Loose cannon. Wouldn't want him anywhere near a gun.
Cork Steel was sold for a penny and poisoned the harbour :)
He nearly could have been a meath man.... Hardy
Alpha male..😂😌
alex Ferguson said it best," if you had 11 Roy Kean s you would never lose a game, I couldn't say that about any other player, not even Ronaldo. "
Until you go down to 8 men lol
Johnny Williams well that's not 11 then is it
@@Toetothunder idiot.
He never said that
bansheewhiskey i believe messi is the best of all time but i don’t think 11 messi would it’s not about talent it’s the hunger the aggression the leadership that stands out
I'm a Liverpool supporter but come on, Dalglish and Fergie, both went for this guy. Quality recognises quality. Everytime. Great captain. Would have loved to have had him at Anfield playing week in week out.
One problem Keane absolutely despised Liverpool so he'd never of signed for them
Ciaran Richardson
I sit in the Kop week in, week out. As a Liverpool fan I hated Keane in a United shirt. But I always respected him. An intelligent football fan doesn’t need to like a current player to respect their ability, and then give them plaudits after they’ve retired.
The point being made is that Dalglish (an incredible player and successful manager) and Ferguson (a hugely successful manager) saw his quality. Not who he signed years later you absolute mug. Id follow a different sport , go back to school, or google the word logic if I were you @Msec ses
@@jonlacey316 Daglish was at Blackburn, not Liverpool. And Roy already agreed to sign for Kenny. Roy never despised Liverpool, and he wasn't really a United fan at that time. Growing up, Roy Keane idolized Glen Hoddle and his team was Spurs (lol). All Roy knew that summer was that Forest had been relegated, Brian Clough had resigned, and he wanted to move on to win trophies.
It was a Friday afternoon when Kenny, Roy and Forest agreed terms. His wage would 40k a week, and Blackburn would pay Forest 4m (record fee). Blackburn office was closed so couldn't finalize the deal. Kenny Daglish and Roy shook hands, and agreed to sign on next Monday. Roy went back home to Cork that Friday evening, drank himself to death as usual on Friday and Saturday. On Saturday morning, the news broke, and SAF read about it, and moved in because we wanted Keane. Sunday morning, when Keane was still hang over, he got a phone call from Sir Alex, telling him who he was, and asked him if he had signed anything. Roy said he hadn't. So Alex said, come down tomorrow for a chat with me. Roy resisted the idea, but Alex said t was just a chat. Most of Roy's family were United supporters, so he came down to Manchester on Monday. SAF said the same thing as he said to Alan Shearer, that United would go on to win a lot of trophies with or without Keane, but with Keane United would win Europe. Shearer didn't quite buy it, but Roy did. On Monday, Kenny Daglish went crazy upon hearing Roy changed his mind, but Roy just shrugged if off and let the clubs negotiate a fee.
Martin Edwards was a stingy bastards, and eventually Forest agreed on a fee of 3.75m (still record fee), and Roy's salary was at 35k per week, less than what he'd get at Blackburn.
I am a Man Utd fan and I think Keane only “hated” teams out of respect when they were a threat to his team. As a pundit he is currently praising Liverpool and rightly so. He has always admired proper professionals which is what the current Liverpool psyche is. If he hated Liverpool, then their fans should take it as a compliment because it wasn’t hate out of malice.
0:01 probably only footage you will ever see of roy keane smiling
Upamanyu Lahiri this video just randomly popped up in my suggestions and I was about to comment this😂
It's weird though 😂
The greatest Captain of the Premier League era.
John terry nuff said
Not even close Adam Roberts
@LEE KING SNATCH john terry isn't even in the top 3 haha
100%
Gerrard by a mile
Absolute legend. Knows the game inside out and one of the best players ever. Honest tells it how it is and the game needs this. What a player. What a man.
This fella is the epitome of an old school footballer and everything a captain is,was and should be! Much respect for the footballer and especially for the proper man that carries himself with fearless determination and pride! Couldn't stand him back in the day but had to respect him immensely as he gives you no choice otherwise! Admiration From a Liverpool supporter!
Roy Keane underrated . One of the best
One of the best midfield players ever!! A straight talking guy as well!! Anyone else agree??
unquestionably
Celtic to the core Roy my Bhoy.....🇮🇪🍀
Miss the battles he and Viera had back in the day. They never disappointed.
Proper footballers.
Keane was awesome! But viera was Better,best midfielder ive seen,an im a wolves fan
Class act, class player too, Roy Keane my favourite player of all time.
Ah Ian love you your respect for Roy is so special your a true professional you know how amazing Roy was
It's a blessing to be able to love your job this much.
Best captain ever to grace the premiership!
Irish Arsenal fan, happy to soak in this interview. Would love to see they day Man United and Arsenal get back to the top again.
You'd never give anything less than your absolute best playing alongside Keane out of fear alone lol.As far as Captains go I'd say he's the very definition of why you have one.
Love Wrighty and Keane! Coming from a spurs fan.
Love the two of them such respect for them both
Most under-rated "Player" of all time 🔴
One of the best
*Totally* not a United fan lol Keano however.. one of my favourite players from the Premiership era. And he talks truth and doesn't pull out of speaking it, just like his tackling
So true, Liverpool fan but have a great load of respect and time for Keano
It's easy to forget as so long ago but when Keane started at forest, he was awesome. In a team that had some superb players as well.
He went up another level or two in HIS play when he went to United (cos he had to).
And that's not at all meant a dig at Forest...at the time they had a fantastic, entertaining side.
Roy is just a natural leader, can learn so much from him without him even trying
Love them both ROY the best Captain ever ever ever love him you too Ian
LEGEND
+whatststory101 LEGENDs.
Great to see how they get along now..
Merciless, lethal, fantastic
Living legend!end of!
We Miss The ROY KEANES Badly In Todays Game👑🍀1 in a Million🍀👑
Where is the rest of this interview? So good
Great player
2 great players.Love Wrighty.
The King of Mean The One and Only mr. Roy Keane💪
2 legends in 1 room
Unfortunately we don't see these type of players again Keane, Viera, gattuso ect all play football with there heart so passionate people just see them as but cases but they honestly wasn't it was the passion and drive flowing through them those snapping tackles, arguments/fights , rivalries between opposing teams players it was the days !
Legends!
thanks for posting but where can we find the rest of the interview??
Greatest captain of Man United. Man U did not lose many matches with Keano in the line up.
The mentality of that United team was unbelievable. Yet to see it since
Very underrated as a footballer. However, will never forget that incident when pre game, Patrick Vieira was having a go at Gary Neville and Keane got right into Vieira's face. Vieira's scared face said it all. Imagine the feeling it must give having a captain like that!
Louie M viera was scared 😂😂😂🤦♂️🙊🤷♂️
Little Keane with his stumpy arms is going to have his way with big black athletic Vieira? That's kinda cute. Maybe in his dreams. Didn't Keane himself say that Vieira would quite comfortably knock his block off? I think even a grub like Keane would be angry at you for implying such a fantastic scenario.
I want to know who the fuck underrates Roy Keane as a footballer? Ridiculous thing to say.
RK was UNDER-RATED?
Bollocks.
where can I see this full interview?
Legend
Keane is far to modest in this interview. One of the greatest in his position of all time.
He looks and sounds relaxed here, he's not playing to the gallery, he's just being "normal."
He never plays to the gallery tells it like it is
KEANO KEANO...BEST PLAYER THE PREMIERSHIP HAS SEEN.
What a tour de force. Dirty bastard, sure, but what a player. What a winner. What a leader. He is in the same bracket as Sergio Ramos and John Terry - you might not like them but you would always want them in your team.
You must be joking you can't compare he was the best
At the beginning of the video you see Roy's teeth when he smiled. That's the first time I have seen him smile like that.
The one that got away....legend
Full interview??
Does anyone have a link to the full interview
Brilliant..
Great books top man
One of the best captains we ever had
Keane is a hero fact
Roy Keane was Man Utd ... he was the one you looked to and said come in Roy .... sort this !!
The player you wanted in the trenches!!
He did what was needed and took no prisoners!!
Aside Bryan robson.... he’s Uniteds best midfielder!!!!
tough, straight up person, leader, bully, psycho, loyal servant
the only thing he did wrong in his career was stepping up to coaches and criticizing trainings and etc. with the media
if Roy kept all that inside the teams 1-on-1 with coaching staff then I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be so many issues and we'd see him playing in MU until he retire
Were can I find this ep
One word...HERO
He was truly one of the best midfielders in the premier. Probably him and KDB would be your CM picks in a starting 11 (even though I prefer Viera)
Got the hole interview?
Full interview???
If Roy was playing now instead of matic, pogba would be a superstar and wouldn't have to defend as much, and Keane would keep him on his toes or kick him up the hole at half time
Back Bone if Roy was playing now Pogba would be sent packing-for the price we bought him and all the hype/haircuts/wages he’s the most overrated player I’ve ever seen, 2 years and counting and he hasn’t done it for me- all I hear is potential- total rubbish. Having said that he did ok today, only ok- against Bournemouth!
Keane would make Pogba obsolete.
Pogba would sulk and shrink to being what he is....an over rated athlete
There’s only one KEANO 🏆 🏆 🏆
Wrighty is one of the few who would stand up to keane if needed
Not really lol
Keane is fucking unbelievable how he played football so calm so composed.......untill you piss him off then he becomes twice the player he is already
As a Arsenal fan best midfielder for me
Handsdown best Manchester United player ever. Yes you can say what about Ronaldo but I’m sorry the years of service Roy gave unbelievable
Keane just tells it as it no bullshit not like a lot of these footballers
Classic Keane!!!!
Not gonna, l got chills!
legend, world class for sure. if David's world class Roy defo world class. head, pass, tackle, goals, control, ultimate leader. man u world class players under fergie, becks, Ronaldo, giggs, Roy, Eric, scholes, Rio, big pete, evra, ruud, waza, vidic, ... anymore ??
Keano
Too many players are labeled world class and they are not..
lets compare say Giggs or Raheem Sterling to C Ronaldo for a perfect example.. Would you say they are on his level?
C Ronaldo is world class, indeed the brazilian Ronaldo was too before his injury.
But ppl like Giggs and Sterling are not at their level and never would be!
Ronaldo can beat players as well as Giggs ever could, Giggs could never cross a ball as well as Beckham.. Beckhams passing as a winger was World class, nobody crossed that ball better!
C Ronaldo can beat players and score goals for fun! Messi too ofc = same level.
You have to have a class of player below C Ronaldo and Messi i believe.
So we have C Ronaldo, Messi, Maradonna, Pele, Romario, Ronaldo, Cruyff etc as the top players.
Peter Schmeichel would be too for his position as i've not seen a better goal keeper before him or since (Banks etc before my time)
I understand many United fans will rage at this, but compare Giggs to C Ronaldo for goals and assists, both are wingers, both played for good United teams.
Giggs only ever hit double figures in goals at premier league twice! 24 seasons at United, when they were at the top of their game! Ronaldo in a mere 6 seasons at United destroyed Giggs season best of 13 goals 3 times with 17 goals, 31 and 18 goals respectively!
And then look at what he went on to do at Real Madrid, it speaks for itself!
Ronaldo is WORLD class, Giggs simply wasn't at his level!
Surely Irwin deserves a mention. Could play in either side of the field and a set price specialist. Evra wasn't half the player he was.
According to Fergie, the first name down on his team sheet.
0:11 - 0:12 " JUST, A NUT "
I'll say 'nutter.'
The ghost of a starving spaniard invaded his body for a split second
My 2 favourite pundits
That Cork accent :-)
Up Leinster 😉
Would love keane to be man united manager one day.
8 secs in and a sly dig at Dunphy :D
His definitely aged well , how Utd could do with him now
That moment when Vieira got in nevilles face and Keane said to him I'll see you on the pitch. Fucking priceless.
I was too young too see Keane play, can someone tell me what player of this day would he be comparable to?
Roy Keane wore his heart on sleeve too many people are captains today and they're quite Roy Keane was often the loudest on the pitch he's one of the best captains ever don't quite who I would compare him too but you should watch some of his battles with Patrick Vieira Rhoose games were war because every player wanted it too people are by standers in modern football
i don't think theres a player to compare to Keane these days for leadership and drive to win!
I guess the closest player you could 'compare' him with in terms of importance would be Kante when Leicester won the league.
Don't really think there is a player that he can be compared to. Hardest working player I've ever seen. The semi final in the Champion's League against Juventus 2 nil down is the epitome of Keane.
He got a yellow knowing he'd miss the final and dragged that United team to victory, completely bossing the midfield of Zidane, Dechamps, David's and Conte.
People get the impression that Wrighty and keane dont get on but its a well known fact they are drinking buddies and its just banter on TV
Keane doesnt drink so Im not sure who you mean when you state its a well known fact?
Keano Keano Keano
Never heard RK squeak before
My favourite pundit
If Roy Keane met Roy Keane he'd absolutely slate him.
I hate arsenal and united, but top 3 ever in the PL: (1) Cantona (2) Henry (3) Keane. Big shout to Le God also. (not a saints fan either haha)
Well, See Eric as a Leeds man then .... cos he was. First.
Thought it was Simon Cowell from the thumbnail
When he said the manager I just had to check how long ago this was posted. Shame 😕.
The greatest football captain PERIOD.
Roy Keane was Man Utd ... he was the person
Excuse me. Now.. boys WILL be boys, but you guys have reason to begin WW3?? Naw.. This is/was the MOST awesomest Soccer clip!! I couldn't take my eyes off it. I am not usually a Futbol fan.. but this got clicked "full screen" and had me GLUED!! :) Russ T1
Greatest captain of Man United. Man U did not lose many matches with Keano in the line up.
