From a liverpool fan from Northern Ireland, what an absolute baller irwin was, left foot, right foot, assist, free kick, long range he had it all, he was ahead of his time in the 90s as a full back, how a footballer should be, as much talent as anyone else but didn't seek recognition or glory or fame
A left back that couldn't really be beat 1 on 1, truly two footed, could play on both flanks, took all set pieces, quality crossing and the most consistent performer I have ever seen.
I think this description was over rated a little bit, why we haven’t seen the media talking about him? .. this question doesn’t mean that you’re wrong but what I mean he was so influenced enough as well as we should remember him till now or as well as what you have described. Still this my perspective and I appreciate what you said
@@ibraheemaleissa7985 1. He wasn't english 2. His prime was before ashley cole who got all the plaudits and the premier league got massive money 3 wasn't a flashy player. What age are you?
Absolute legend longevity and an absolute winner doesn't get spoken about enough had everything and was good at every sport proper legend not forgotten by me
Best full back we have ever had at the club. He could do with teaching the current crop of players the art of crossing the ball and how to take corner kicks. Class act. Had it all and such a humble hard working player. They don't make them like Denis anymore.
My favourite full back of all time just about pipping Zambrotta. Just unreal technique when crossing the ball. AWB could do with watching Irwins highlights and see where he can improve going forward!!!!
That Man u team was amazing, as a neutral so watchable, I really enjoyed football in the nineties, such a good time. Still in bloody lockdown!!!!! But thanks u tube, keeping me sane with football videos. 👍
He was reliable with pens and never missed to cost the team winning a competition but he missed in the 1993 CharityShield and in the PL 1998/99 vs Villa at OldTrafford which ManUtd still won 2-1.
My dad was a football academy coach in my hometown growing up in the 90's. He always spoke about Dennis Irwin being the most versatile and consistent player he had seen in the Premier League. He regularly told us Dennis Irwin was the perfect role model for any young player in terms of ability and professionalism. Now I see what he meant!
Roy Keane: Dennis my god, he can play left back right back, good at set piece, good with his both feet, rarely injured always fit, train well always consistent, good lad good personality good character..
What made him such a brilliant penalty taker was he always hit the ball low and hard, none of the silly over the top shots some players take where it goes 15 feet over the bar.
Probably up there as Ferguson's best ever signing. He was a 7/8 out of ten almost every game , two great feet and don't think he ever missed a penalty either outside of that one he scored via rebound anyway ! Legend
@@jordanheale7479 Probably relief, it was 1-1 against Halifax Town, who United should have been beating, and that goal made it 2-1 for Utd in the '87 minute.
As a kid born in 1990, I didn't realise how often Irwin played on the right before Paul Parker and Gary Neville came along. He was always the left back guy.
I dont remember him. Ashley Cole and Roberto Carlos are on my list and now Irwin. Irwin had a good weak foot! In terms of technician was not good but was awesome at following the tactics
Id play him right back in my Prem League all time 11. Ashley Cole left back. Paul McGrath and Terry centre halfs. Best striker Prem League ever had was Suarez
My God, imagine if Denis Irwin was playing now, he could play left-back, right-back, get you a goal, knew how to defend, never injured, a brilliant guy in the dressing room. 😭
And yet Cashley disgracefully gets into Premier league hall of fame before him. Even Evra should be there ahead of AshleyCole looking at their careers records everything in England and outside of the PL but Irwin really what more can you do? 7 Premier league titles (would've been 8 if Bosvelt didn't try to break his leg just before ManUtd played at Highbury in 97/98) 3 FAcups, ChampionsLeague, LeagueCup, CupWinnersCup, SuperCup. 33 goals for ManUtd in 12 years, how many goals did Cashley score in 14 years with Arsenal/Chelsea. I've seen loads of key contributions from Irwin with his weaker foot I now need to see a tape of Cashley's best bits with his right foot please can someone send me the link?
Great video, only nitpick, Irwin won a penalty against Middlesbrough at the start of the 92/93 season that would ordinarily be designated as an assist so should be 33g/39a
really confused me too. I think maybe when he puts his hands above his head he's celebrating but is also frustrated that it either took so long for them to score or that they've already scored so many that goals are meaningless at that point (idk the specifics of scoreline). If you look at the other two United players in that shot 9 and 14 they have very calm and subdued reactions, not much excitement from them too

Mr reliable, even when he switched from right back to left it made no difference
*DENIS
One of the most humble Man United player to fans ever. I've meet him several times and he always kind if I asked photograph or sign autograph :)
False
As Gary Neville said in a tweet, he wasn't the just United's best left back, he was the best right back too.
Alan Hansen voted him the best LB *and* RB in Premier League history
Proper two footed
Keaneo wasn’t wrong
Yep

What a great video and what a player, defensively outstanding also and a all round fantastic player
Very underated was irwin a free kick master and had a great shot fast skillfull and great tackler 👍
He wasn't underrated he just wasn't English
Boom Boom Mancini facts
Irwin was o e of the most consistently solid players for United while he was playing for them. Definitely a United legend!
Agree with you, my friend :)
Our best ever full back without question
You can't help but wonder how much would a player like that cost in the current market...

Bring us good old nostalgia about how great Man United in 90's, isn't ?
He never missed a penalty during whole his career!! Maybe just once, but he scored the rebound.. Hats-off to him..

What a crosser of a ball... incredible footballer...
What a player Irwin was ,best left back in PL history imo
Message from TH-cam.... 'we don't have sufficient space on our servers to fit a compilation video of all of Irwins defensive plays'.
This guy was incredible he could do anything u name it
Half of these he's playing at right back. Best Premier League fullback ever.
The best all-around LB the PL has seen to date.
Probably up there as Ferguson's best ever signing. He was a 7/8 out of ten almost every game , two great feet and don't think he ever missed a penalty either outside of that one he scored via rebound anyway ! Legend
Absolute legend . 🇮🇪 ❤️ ☘️
Yes, totally agree with you my friend.
Dennis Irwin is a Man United living legend !!!
Man was a fucking machine, and some brilliant free kicks. Plus 8:44 was payback for Bosfeld's foul.
Clearly one of the most popular players with fans and his teammates,you can see when he scores how the other players react
Totally deserved his place alongside all of those other legends.
3:34 what was that defender doing at that post? The header came his way but he looked like he was just watching the game...
left or right ! rarely see such quality and consistency from either foot
Definition of unassuming footballer
Forget how good he was, underrated
Гравець був надійний , працьовитий і грамотний. Один з найкращих захисників МЮ і світового футболу всіх часів.

Trent is a poundland scouse Dennis Irwin. And he’s 100% the best full back in the world right now. Just goes to show how good Irwin was
Trent is great so was Irwin

He was always the left back guy.
Unlikely to win anything without the character of this man
what a player he was.
All 152 Beckham assist for United
One of Manchester Uniteds best players ever
6:42 Iconic Moment of PES
40000 of these views are Roy Keane
Just having a watch of a man doing he's day work.
The greatest left back of all times
Nope i got Maldini and Roberto Carlos competing for that spot
Roberto Carlos - no discussion😁
It should be evra even only concerned united players
I dont remember him. Ashley Cole and Roberto Carlos are on my list and now Irwin. Irwin had a good weak foot! In terms of technician was not good but was awesome at following the tactics
@@FilipeIria87 he had unbelievable technical ability. Just because he's stocky & not flashy doesnt mean he's not technical
Roy Keane watches this everyday
Different class
one of the first modern fullbacks
How? Was there really a "fullback revolution" in the late 80s/early 90s?
The good old days when football was football
Who got him in pes Tommorow or today.. he is sick man.. 🔥❤
Me
I got his IM for 100 coins last week~
Id play him right back in my Prem League all time 11. Ashley Cole left back. Paul McGrath and Terry centre halfs. Best striker Prem League ever had was Suarez
I'd forgotten how two-footed he was.
No wonder Roy Keane never stopped going on about him. Best ever left(or right) back in the premiership? probably.
My God, imagine if Denis Irwin was playing now, he could play left-back, right-back, get you a goal, knew how to defend, never injured, a brilliant guy in the dressing room. 😭
If Roy Keane is such a fanboy of yours that it becomes a meme, you know you're kind of special as a footballer.

"Like an offer. To the great gods of football."
My god denis irwin top class
Haven't heard from him since he retired. Wish Carragher, Neville and Richards had followed suit.
How much would be be worth in today's market? Unbelievable footballer
If he was 25 and had been at Utd for 3 to 4 seasons performing at his usual 8/10, it would be an easy £100m.

Found Keano's secret channel.
Great video, only nitpick, Irwin won a penalty against Middlesbrough at the start of the 92/93 season that would ordinarily be designated as an assist so should be 33g/39a
Winning a penalty used to be classed as an assist?
@@perspectiVe- no. The guys wrong
00:44 why is United's number 7 (webb?) angered that United have just scored? He was throwing a Ronaldo tantrum well before Ronaldo got the shirt.
really confused me too. I think maybe when he puts his hands above his head he's celebrating but is also frustrated that it either took so long for them to score or that they've already scored so many that goals are meaningless at that point (idk the specifics of scoreline). If you look at the other two United players in that shot 9 and 14 they have very calm and subdued reactions, not much excitement from them too
Who is your united man, no7, at 00:42 who is pissed that united scored. He looks angry that he was not the one who scored.
I mean he low key nice w it, Roy ain’t wrong 😂
Denis Irwin: Pep's wet dream.
Trent got 2/3 of the Irwins assist tally at 22 And counting.. nevertheless DI was class
fewer games back then and Denis Irwin was in his mid 20's when he joined United
Irwin was also way better defensively, and I support LFC. we will see how TAA develops on that side of the ball.
Play TAA at left back and Robertson at right back. That's how good Irwin was.
Trent is average can't even get a game for England
Trent Alexander-Irwin
Roy Keane wasn’t lying this guy was the business
Why did number 7 react the way he did at 0:43?
