I am a Leeds fan and didn't think I would ever say this but since Roy stopped playing I am a big fan. Very dry humour and funny. A seriously good pundit and a family man.

I can watch and listen to Roy anytime anyday and love listening and watching him. Every single word is honest, brutal and the truth.

He was an unbelievable player. People think about his hard tackles etc but his football brain and technical ability were incredible. He was a top footballer.

I've been a Man United fan for 40 years now. I've seen a lot of great players come and go. World class players. Keano was the only player that made me cry the day he left

He is being humble.... He knows full well how good he was.

Watching him at Forest in the early days was an honour! loved Keano and still do, ive got so much respect for this man and so proud he talks about forest in the way he does, after all he won in the game he never ever forgot his roots and still doesnt.

Harder you work the luckier you get

I’m a Liverpool fan. But when I think of what it is to be a football captain - first name is Roy Keane. We would have been absolutely obscene with him at our club. Huge huge respect for that man.

Absolute ultimate captain

His passing was very underated think his stats are a nearly 80% Completion rate ....phenomenal 😮

Nobody can give insights like roy keane. He keeps it simple and paints a detailed picture. 👌 👍

Love how modest Roy is. He’s the best central midfielder ever to play in the Premier League. Just above Viera. People talk about Keane being a hardman. His attitude. The tackles. They forget he was an an incredible player. He hardly gave the ball away. Would always play the ball forward and in to feet. Elite footballer.

The kind of man you'd want in the trenches with you. Absolute beast ❤⚽️

I pray that keane and ferguson will have a long sit down chat at some point before its too late.. even if its one where they both know its the only time theyll ever talk.. just clear the air, be open and honest.. and set everything straight They will always definitely respect each other

Keane played very simple football, reliable with the ball

Roy is being very modest here. You make your own luck. His quality, work rate, passion,professionalism and determination got him into those positions.

Listen to his words it's from the heart. His belief in his own ability for. Man.U it's a pity all present players don't give the same comment. Well done Keno legend

Could listen to Roy for hours and hours on end. After everything he achieved in the game his so humble. What a top professional, player and leader he was. Such a waste to not see him in another managerial job putting all his qualities and experience to use. People forgot the amazing job he did at Sunderland as well.

Keane had three careers at Utd. He was more of an attacking mid when he signed, then he transitioned to box to box before becoming purely a defensive mid. Let's not forget he also played CB and RB quite a few times during injury crises. He was RB when Utd battered Ipswich 9-0. His first 3 managers in professional football were Brian Clough, Jack Charlton and Alex Ferguson...that's not a bad education.

What a player these players dont exist anymore

Keane like Ferguson and Clough are from a different era. A better era.

" you can control it,you can pass it and you can move, just do that". In other words don't try and show off,cloughie kept him grounded, no big time Charlie's when he was in charge. He said he drank a bottle of milk because cloughie told him to despite not liking milk but he didn't dare refuse.⚽

How Man U could do with someone of Roy's caliber leading the dressing room and captaining on-pitch right about now!

On the pitch a leader of men and probably a gent off it 👍❤️

SOLID FOOTBALLER,Always no 1 on the list

What would you give for a footballer with the Roy attitude.... brilliant! Would you want a team mate tough diciplined and full of passion... Definitely. The game is sadly lacking real footballers today.. but when the game goes around treating adults both on and off the pitch like Children.. that is exactly what you will get.

Keano!!❤

A fabulous attitude to the game! Any club looking for a potential class Manager? He’s here!

Best Keane interview ever

He only expected his teammates do give 100% the same as him. What a player!

Fantastic, Keano so honest!!

He was better than he gives himself credit for. An excellent player going forward, a goal scorer. He was quite a threat before adopting a defensive mid role. And his passing was simple but excellent. Always forward and well weighted passes.

Glorious Freudian slip at 4:46 - “so when I did become the MANAGER” - meant to say “Captain”. Either way, best captain the club’s had. Inspired those around him

Respect.

A legend

Love Keano❤❤❤

Legend

There was a time when, if Keane didn't play, we all just knew that United would lose. Without Keane, a United loss was almost inevitable, that was his influence... I still remember the treble days... when there were rumours when he would leave for Juventus, every United fan was nervous.

Met Roy, a no nonsense fella and what you see! Is what you get.

Brilliant words and sentiments. The only player who could be mentioned in the same breath of Bryan Robson

When your passing rate is in the 70 to 80% completion rate levels, you were a great player. The hardest thing to do is control and pass the ball at the highest level when the game is played at a 100 miles an hour. Control, pass and move is the basis of football. Then doing it at 200miles an hour is the difference between a pro and everything else. Then he added tackling ie retrieving the lost balls etc then ofcourse his leadership skills. Not the most skilful but had the basics to a T.

Soo humble... best of the irish

Dynamite roy

I hope Alex Ferguson and Roy Keane can put their past behind them. Life is too short to hold grudges.

One of the best players to ever put on a United shirt

Football is a simple game when played right

Captain Fantastico!

I can watch Roy all day

Liverpool fan. In my lifetime the greatest player in PL history. The best Captain, the best man, no BS =, no excuse, no bad habits, massive strength, and discipline. The best player when it mattered on a field of supposed superstars. A mentality God. In my world 11 he is the first name on the team sheet, then Messi..

Slip up - "and when I became Manager" (Captain)

Why do these pundits always discredit how good they were. How was he average one of the best midfielders to play the game tbh

United is the shambles it is because there are no players like Roy Keane left.

Good to see even though he fell out with Fergie...how much he clearly respected him.

Why he is an absolute great pro and and was exceptional every time he went to war. Only time I seen him bested in a midfield battle was Man Utd vs Real Madrid....Fernando Redondo run the show and Keano couldn't touch him that night. But top player and pro.

Why has he never been given a chance managing man utd? Would bring back the old work ethic that used to trive there!

He downplays his own ability when he says Pass. Control. Move. He done this and more to the very highest level. His winning mentality was unmatched, his aggression was frightening. They really don’t make them like Keane anymore

My captain.

Keane was manager for years! Even steve McLaren had to ask him for the team to have days off and Keane always said no and that inspired McLaren

Quality

He's honest. If you're bad you'll know if your good you'll find out eventually 😂. As a forest fan as soon as saw him in Dublin v Man City I new we wouldn't keep him for long He got dogs abuse 😂😂😂 and Niall Quinn Ireland highest scorer at the time,, was booed remorselessly The Irish are a funny bunch

Has plenty of of medals to back up his career

No wonder he gets so frustrated with the Utd teams of the past 11 years. He would have gone through a brick wall for that club and he expected it of his team mates. No excuses. What a player.

Is united ready for Roy Keane

Sub £10k you can’t go wrong with an s5… 4.2 v8 is a good motor, go for manual with full main dealer history and low ownership.lot of car for the money

Would be in my 5s team all day long

It is one thing being a great player; it is another thing transmitting to a great manager.

There’s only 1 KEANO 👌

Control, pass and move. The players who excel are of course talented, but they do the basics so well. Milan is my team for 35 years. Watching my team over the past 10 years, I'll tell you that control, pass and move are skills not easily gotten or honed. Too often instead of control and easy pass forwards, footballers decide to play it backwards or sideways. Scared to take responsibility or panic when the opposition even slightly press. Last weekend we literally seemed to play with a 1-4-0-6 system. Midfield non existent, the defenders just passing it around amongst themselves, and all of the other players with their backs to the opponents waiting for some sort of magic to happen. Scared to receive the ball, pass it and or take it past an opponent and put the opposition on the back foot - just can't do it. So whilst it seems that roy Keane is downplaying or simplifying his abilities, the reality couldn't be more different. He could do those 3 things extremely well, and that's why he is so celebrated by his clubs' fans even after all these years.

Just tree tings. Oak, ash, sycamore.

Roy is a perfectionist and temper. You can't lead men with temper. Ten Hag is the right person

Aye he was Pish

Realises how lucky he was. How few entitled ‘celebs’ understand that.

Sargents run the British army; that goes for Special Forces.

Dem tree managers taut me eveyting

Soccer!!! Ffs Roy😊

He done a deal with Kenny to sign for Liverpool and then changed his mind. He would’ve been class at LFC. It just goes to show how good he was as he went to win tons of trophies.

He was shot from 2003 onwards when his hip went and was basically wearing a mask when picking up his wages. It's telling he never played again after leaving utd. Fantastic in his day though.

Roy managed United?

Disgrace he wasn't made manchester united manager after ferguson! One time ferguson ego got better of him

Ferguson 😡

Self effacing legend...

He always goes on about people who didnt win trophies but to be fair if United didnt want him and he went other clubs he wouldnt have won. Would be interesting to see him humble

Carregah is cringe

Walking his dogs when his teammates were playing in a knockout match at the World Cup for his country. Yeah very professional 😂

Roy Keane an over rated hardman.Vinnie Jones and Duncan Ferguson would tear him to shreds

Does anyone want to hear what Keane says? Are all Irish so negative?

His luck would run out if he had the bollocks to back up his bullshit talk and fight Jon Walters...

Most Irish people would be the same as Keane. We are not interested in hob-nobbing our way to the top and cups of tea with the manager would be out. I bet Irwin never had cosy chats with Ferguson. His praise for Clough seems OTT, probably because Clough is dead and can't dispute it. Clough once punched Keane in the face. I've no doubt Keane is a winner but he sure rubs people up the wrong way. He doesn't seem capable of changing and remains a relic of the early 90s. I don't think he is capable of adapting to how things are now for players. It's a shame because he has a lot to give, but I don't see any future for him management and he is becoming a cartoon character in punditry. I would love to see him taking on a sleeping giant of a team like Sampdoria or Fiorentina. Any team in fact. It's now or never, the longer he languishes in podcasts, the more his profile dies. His kids are all more or less grown up now, so there's no excuses.
