Two of them were great, definitely the highlight of the premier league era to date in my opinion. I doubt we'll be seeing a rivalry like this for a long time. Keane was something else at his peak.
Agreed. Same goes for the United and Arsenal rivalry back then. Never a dull moment when those two squared up and I don't think we've seen a rivalry that heated, since then.
He was brilliant for his entire career Keane but from 99-02 he was the best out & out midfielder in the game. Always showed up when it mattered most too, you can’t coach that.
Keane was immense that day. Without him that could've been a loss because that Arsenal team was good and just as competitive. This is why hes rated so highly. Small details.
Another thing Keane seldom gets credit for was his pace. See him chase down Vieira around 45 seconds in after making a great tackle and then getting up off the deck to stop Vieira in his tracks.
Omg how in Gods name did Alex FERGUSON not give ROY KEANE A KNIGHTHOOD WHAT A PERFORMANCE my God shame on you Alex he gave his team everything and more if that's possible
Remember watching this live and just didn't get how much quality and commitment there was in it at the time!Roy was great but I still think Bryan Robson had slightly more quality,in fact he's my favourite England player of all time
Robson was immense too. You can also watch videos of him if you'd like! th-cam.com/play/PL9n84njYMCXQEwm-aKcMMpyE-FnCqE3uj.html&feature=share One of my favorite midfielders ever.
proper mans game this was tackles flying everywhere not like todays era where its stop start every 5 mins going to VAR when someone farts there will never be anything like the 90s the amount of top players all around the world like del piero zidane totti cafu to name a few wipe the floor with the millenium generation to now
What the fuck? He was never underrated what are u even on about? Voted in the Premier League's Overseas Team of the Decade along side Vieira, won PFA Players of the Year, and you being an idiot calling him underrated? How disrespectful you are to United's most successful captain. Stop using the word underrated because it just makes you ignorant.
Definitely. They were two of the greatest midfielders of the Premier League. There have been games where Vieira's got the better of Keane and vice versa. Those Arsenal vs United matches from that period never failed to entertain. Box office stuff.
Proper heavyweights. Technique, physical, tactical and leadership in driving their teams forward... In an all time Prem 11 I think in a 3 man midfield Roy/Patrick would demand the box to box role alongside a sitter like Fernandinho etc and the creator like KDB.

This is the best football you will see. Highbury was a mad place to play. Midfield was so tight
How many Roy Keanes were playing that day?
The nostalgia. I didn't truly appreciate what great days these were, very little passion in football anymore.
All the clashes and nobody on the ground rolling. Proper mans game.
Keane was the main man on the field. He dominated Viera in his home turf
A bit more closely competed than that if you watch the full match. A clash of true prem heavyweights indeed.

Stam was one tough bastard

He was a runner in his youth. Incredibly underrated athlete.
love him
upload more, so valuable
Sure thing

i doubt a Cork man would accept a nighthood
@@niallyshere don't suppose he would

Keane was better
Robson was Keane's favourite player and who he partly modelled his game on.
Some Man Roy is
Used to look forward to these exciting games - now boring
Keane still the best midfielder in premier league history.
wait did keane shake dixon hand in the tunnel? im sure ive heard him have a go at players shaking hands before the game before

Keane was awesome.So so Underrated in England maybe because he was Irish and the best.

Dennis Irwin out muscling Vieira
Roy got the better of Viera that day... he didn't win every encounter.

Nowadays we have Partey, Fernandinho, Kante, Declan rice, Fabinho etc….
