Viera pulled Keane’s pants down that day. Masterclass he produced that game… getting kicked all over and still remained calm and the touches he was doing was unreal. One of the best performances in that decade in the prem leauge from a player!!! (Newcastle fan)
Keane and Scholes would have played not more than 10 games per season if it wasn't for the refs who were supporting Man Utd. Vieira is the best defensive midfilder ever, Keane is just an agressive avegrage ass
Conspiracy theories abound. Refs supporting man united like arsenal didnt get howard webb giving them handball goals😂just bitterness because we used to bully you back then. Stop crying 20 years later. The refs used to give bad decisions against united all the time
Man U were masters of those dirty little tackles which disrupted play, and demoralised the other team, stopping them from playing, without getting booked. Of course I think such constant dirty and deliberate fouling should be punished. But I was always ahead of the curve, and it wasn’t then.
Arsenal fans when they had Keown ,Adams and Wright breaking people's bones to succeed ; "aaaah men's football" Arsenal fans when Wenger stopped buying players suited towards the English game ; "Man U were thugs ,the ref's were biased towards them"
You could say the exact same about viera, this was just a bad game from united & arsenal were insane that season. Keane pocketed viera quite a few times tho.
@@ocearbhaill3894 Name me ONE player Viera tried to or put out of football? You can pretend all you want that Vieira was not judged by a different standard, if he made half the fouls Scholes did I could probably understand
The fact the types of Scholes and Keane got away with so extremely many dirty fouls during their career at Manchester United just shows what control Sir Alex had over the refs. And dont say "Viera was the same". No he wasnt. Not even close to Scholes and Keanes level. He played hard, yes. But Keane and Scholes sometimes went in to injure other players on purpose. The tackle Keane made on Håland back in the days could just as well had end his career. And that was far from the only time he mad tackles like that. When did Viera do a tackle like that? Never.
Bollocks. Stop making conspiracy theories up mate, you sound deranged. United used to ger awful decisions against them, you wont remember that tho as it doesn’t fit your agenda
When did viera tacklee like that? Have you seen when man united beat arsenal 6-1 and keane absolutely dominated viera all day🤣🤣wen has viera ever beat united like that🤣🤣🤣
The fact that you say that means you didn’t watch football back then and just watched these compilations made by Arsenal fans. Both teams were playing the same and playing tough with fouls that in todays game would be reds was the norm. Just watch the match from Community Shield from 2003 when both Neville and and Cole got a yellow for fouls in the first 2 minutes. You’ll see how both teams were playing tough. Also watch FA Cup final from 2005 and tell me Lauren didn’t actually do worse vs young Ronaldo. He had like 8 fouls that today would at least be a yellow. Also Vieira could have seen a red from the fouls on Ronaldo. But of course you are only watching what it suits you as Arsenal fan.
As an itaian football fan who's been at Old Trafford several times and sympathizes for both Arsenal and United, i don't love theories about coaches or teams corrupting referees or similar stuff (that has been proven to be true only about one team and that's juventus). I do think that Man Utd's status as most iconic english football team at some points of football history has contributed to them being treated a bit more softly than other teams by some refs. But that has been known to happen to many important and influential clubs. That said, anybody who says Roy Keane was better than Vieira and talks about ucl wins and shit, doesn't know much about football in my opinion.
People often say they believe Keane was better than Vieira, but honestly, I think Vieira was always better. The difference was always that Utd had Keane and Scholes as a midfield partnership. Maybe the best partnership of its generation. Wenger never quite found the equivalent of Scholes (let's be fair there wasn't one), and so it was always magnificent Vieira and a weaker partner vs an almost as good Keane, and a world class Scholes. My only regret of that time is that after the invincibles Real Madrid wanted Vieira and Arsenal turned it down. How amazing would it have been to see Vieira next to Zidane in that Galactico team.
I've never heard anyone but the most rabid ManU supporters claim Keane was better than Vieira 😀 Vieira was always the superior footballer, by quite a margin I'd say. It's just that Keane always had Scholes next to him, who was so versatile that you could afford to have a (comparatively) low-skill wrecking ball next to him. They made a good partnership, but the thing is, Vieira would shine no matter who was next to him, whereas Keane would not have.
@@Jugistoteles The one game with the bust up in the tunnel before the match Man u won 4-2. Only time Keane could ever say he got the better of Vieira, despite the head to head being slightly in favour of Keane for wins (7v5, which could easily be reversed if there were some decent refereeing in some of those encounters). On paper, they had similar careers. 7 top flight leagues, a UCL, but Vieira also had a World Cup, another WC final, and Euro 2000, AND was the beating heart of the Invincibles. Clear winner here is Vieira, who is, clearly one of the best ever DMs. Better than Kante or Makele. And daylight between Vieira and Keane.
@@emilpindur9400 Vieira never won the UCL. He was a bit part player in the World Cup win and was a sub throughout. Go on about Scholes being the real driving force all you want, but surely you've got to apply the same reasoning to Zidane in the 98 World Cup, plus all the other world class team mates that carried him to victory? Keane played for Ireland FFS so of course he's not going to do as well. Also, other than that 4-2 you mentioned, wasn't there a game where Keane scored twice in a 2-1 victory at Arsenal? Pretty sure he got the better of him that day too, not to mention when United beat Arsenal SIX - 1, and most other occasions TBH. Keane was the beating heart of the treble winners (who lost less games that season than the self titled 'invincibles' did in 03/04 and won 3x the trophies), a team that won three in a row, 7PLs in 9 years and broke records for points and winning with most games to spare - none of which Vieira did. Also - head to head in the PL - it’s Keane 5-3 vieira, and Keane missed one of those seasons through injury. Arsenal fans like to moan about refs, but you got away with murder yourselves - the 'battle of Old Trafford' in 2003 being a prime example. Plus David Ellary did all he could to win you that semi in 99 - but Vieira won it in the end - by passing it to Giggs
@@Jugistoteles "I've never heard anyone but the most rabid ManU supporters claim Keane was better than Vieira" Laughable that you call Keane a " (comparatively) low-skill wrecking ball". Such nonsense. Keane was the all around superior football player. Scored more goals and a better passer to boot. Keane was an attacking midfielder in his early days at Forest and was the clear better passer and assist man. He scored 33 goals in 154 games for Forest, over three seasons from the age of 19 to 21, with far less of a skilled cast around him than Vieira had at Arsenal. How many goals did Vieira score? at that age? 10 Goals in 173 games for Arsenal (his first 4 seasons, I even gave Vieira an extra year and season, to make it look closer) Vieira was powerful, stronger and better at defending. Fact remains....Roy Keane scored more goals with his head as well. Keane's goals powered United in the Champions League two years straight....Vieira rarely ever scored in the CL. Vieira scored a whopping 2 goals in 66 European Games for Arsenal. Keane scored 14 goals in 84 European Games for Man Utd. At age 30 Keane had played total games = 472 - 77 goals At age 30 Vieira had played total games = 523 - 43 goals (Keane nearly doubles Vieira in terms of goals per game at this point) Vieira should have been scoring 10 goals a year with his head, from corners and free kicks with his strength, athleticism, power and height. Frankly it's embarrassing that he did not. People love to point to the Vieira/Keane battles....fact is, Vieira was 5 years younger, and did not start to get the edge on Keane till post 2001, when Keane was 29 and had gone through severe knee and hip injuries. Arsenal fans always seem to forget the Keane pre-2000, when trying to assess the Viera-Keane rivalry. " It's just that Keane always had Scholes next to him" Oh, always? Is that so? Scholes did not even finally secure the starting midfield spot next to Keane full time until 1997-1998 and Keane missed half that season as you may recall. Before that, he never started more than 16 games in a season and was shuttled around at striker as well in his first three years. You seem to forget, that Keane played for Forest from 90 to 93.... Keane arrived at United in 1993, displacing Bryan Robson.....he had Paul Ince beside him for the first two years, then Nicky Butt was his primary partner in 95-96 & 96-97. 98-99 was the first year that Keane/Scholes were the full first choice pairing, with both healthy. "Vieira would shine no matter who was next to him, whereas Keane would not have" Really? Keane was shining with Nicky Butt next to him, who provided little in the way of attacking capability. Vieira was in full decline by the beginning of the 2004 season at only 28, and he had Gilberto Silva next to him, who was hardly a poor player. Did Vieira shine at Juve with Emerson next to him? Nope. He was only 29 when he got there. and Inter? He was 30 when he got there....How'd he do with Figo, Cambiasso and Stankovic next to him? He got beaten out for the starting role by Olivier DaCourt, and was never even a full time starter again. How about the 2002 world cup? 26 years old....in his prime....total failure without Zidane next to him. Why did he not stamp his authority on that World Cup? 2006 world cup, still only 30...totally average, even with superstars around him. Average in the group stage at best. Good vs Spain in the 1st round knockout, Decent in the quarters vs Brazil, Average vs Portugal in the Semis, Let Materazzi outfight him for Italy's equalizer in the final, poor, then limped off in the 60th minute into the sunset How about France in general....he had legends next to him....Keane had virtually nothing with Ireland....and yet, Vieira had 101 caps and 6 goals for France, while Keane had 9 goals in 67.....and had to shoulder far more of the attacking load in central midfield than Vieira did with the attacking superstars around him. Get over it....Vieira was a great footballer, powerful, strong, ferocious and a driving force....but simply not as good all around as Keane.

@@rarefootball10 Partey is good, finally we have a midfielder of that profile who is a colossus in the middle of the park. But even still, he cannot lace Paddy’s boots. Paddy rarely got injured, he was a man of steel. Proper captain. But regardless, hopefully Partey does it for us this year!
I'm a Liverpool fan and I remember seeing Viera. Huge frame but so skilled and elegant. Massive amounts of skill AND toughness. Pretty much any team ever would want PV in their starting 11.
Keane was NOT a hard man of football but a mere nasty thug on the pitch. Vieira was like a Preying Mantis with those lanky legs but he made the game and tackling look so easy & effortless. He is definitely an underrated past player from a Gers supporter here.
Yet Keano,small for a bully , got warned by Vinnie Jones early in a United match against Wimbledon and Keane never went near Jones for the rest of the match .Keane knew that if he tried to mix it with Vinnie on the field there would be afters in the players tunnel and Keane would certainly have come off worst !
Indeed.. Vieira Drops Performance of ages, I remember he 'Vieira' dictates the intire midfielder and to be honestly he wasn't playing dirty game he was like gentle of football but Kean Drops Dirtiest Performance of ages and he deserved a red card, I'm Man United fan but I always love fair game, I know Roy is An Irish his DNA is to play a dirty game 'That was his nature' but don't forget one more thing, perhaps the most important influence in the game Sir Alex Fergusson used to tell his players to kick the top player of their opposition.. if I'm wrong you can correct me

@@ameEeeee3 yea I mean this proved it really. Viera miles better footballer, better tackler, better passer, just better at everything over Keane and now a better manager
It was generally accepted that when Arsenal and UTD played if Keane got the better of Viera UTD would win and visa-versa. Utd won a lot more often than Arsenal
I always maintain that Keane was as Coward, not a hard man. Sly tackles, tackles from the back, he knew no-one could do anything to him apart from a Booking or sending off. Alan Shearer always owned him, there was a real Man.
I don't remember that much about Keane but watching this I'm asking myself why was it allowed to "play" in the first place? Ok I know that back then the premier league was the hardest one, well, that what we saw from France anyway but this guy is just dangerous on the field.
Your a crackpot Keane was an all round brilliant midfielder the most reliable midfielder the prem has seen forget all the hardman bollix it doesn't mean anything nobody even thinks about that when it comes to football
Baffles me that Viera won a World Cup and people still say Keane was better but a lot of those same people say Messi has to win a World Cup to be the best ever .It doesn’t add up .
U expect keane to win the world cup witb Ireland? 🤣🤣 even messi couldnt do that. And noone is calling Keane or veira the goat. Messi gets that praise so the burden of winning trophies is greater. I hope this clears things up. But for u to be confused by this you must be incredibly stupid so i think you are probably still baffled
This video just show how good Vieira was during those days. Probably the best midfielder in the world in that period. It is common knowledge that referees used to fear Alex Ferguson and many 50-50 decisions used to go Man Utd way. Not taking anything from them as they were definitely the strongest team then, but perhaps a title or 2 should probably go to another team.
@@laughingatyou2232 Winning the title at old trafford is better than 3 points 🤡, lol Vieira came to your home dominated Keane and won the league title at old trafford and man is typing 6-1 under every comment, I’d rather lose 6-1 to my rivals than have my rivals come to my home beat me and win the title there and celebrate on my turf 💀
Vieira a beast and all around a better football player than Roy keane who was a good player at that time but just for the premier league. He wouldn't had make it in Serie A or in la Liga.
Roy keane bossed viera about when he beat him 6-1, won more medals, and had a better career. All round better footballer, viera was mediocre. Not good enough
That’s it. You have a legend of the game on one hand: athletic, technical, versatile with a magnificent vision. On the other hand, there is this angry little man who tries to compensate his weak football abilities by being as brutal as possible. The most amazing things is how he got away with so much brutality and how a group of people can idolise him for being no more than a thief on the pitch. I love tough players with character. This guy was just mean.
I know keane was far superior to that animal viera. A champions league winner who bossed zidane about in europe. Viera could never bless him. He had such an average career
Spot on. Vieira was a class above. Keane should have seen red. I know it was a different era but Keane benefitted from being a United stalwart and got away with murder. Even ginger Scholes got away with a few. His legacy was built after he retired. Rewatch the 99 semi against Juve. Keane gets all the credit but the best man united players were Cole and Yorke (really classy performances). Didn't suit the media narrative who needed a "British" Roy of the rovers story. Keane is credited with "single-handedly carrying United to the final and everyone laps it up as gospel.
Agree! I did not know the player Keane intentionally injured was Erling's dad! As a former ManU fan, I never liked Keane for his aggression. Vindictive character, no hero. I am glad Erling is doing so well for Man City, causing much chagrin to ManU fans. What a way to 'avenge' his dad.
Modern day football is so shit compared to this. I'm only 29 but my god, the amount of soul that has left football since I've been watching is depressing
To have flying kicks thrown at you and still remain so calm and measured takes real character
And this "characters" is what Arsenal players pussies

What happens when you don't have class but are just made out of anger issues
What a player Patrick was...
When you don't have skill of your opponent, you resort to anything i.e. tackling by Keane.
Qué jugador más completo, fuerza, agilidad,velocidad y pases. Uno de los mejores en el mediocampo
Viera pulled Keane’s pants down that day. Masterclass he produced that game… getting kicked all over and still remained calm and the touches he was doing was unreal.
One of the best performances in that decade in the prem leauge from a player!!!

In this video you can see Vieira playing football beautifully, while some angry small helpless men just run to hurt someone
Roy Keane isnt an angry small man
@@DCescoriaHe is
@@MB-dk5pq Yeah, he would, but compared to class such is Vieira, Keane is nothing
Keane and Scholes would have played not more than 10 games per season if it wasn't for the refs who were supporting Man Utd. Vieira is the best defensive midfilder ever, Keane is just an agressive avegrage ass
You know nothing juventus 99 fool.
Conspiracy theories abound. Refs supporting man united like arsenal didnt get howard webb giving them handball goals😂just bitterness because we used to bully you back then. Stop crying 20 years later. The refs used to give bad decisions against united all the time
Viera isn’t even top 5 dms, hes dog shit. Got dominated when united beat Arsenal 6-1, where was viera then? Wheres his champions league? 😂😂😂
Back when football was interesting.
I'd go with Makelele.
Viera was on a different level
I just love the title. These two were great back in the day.
Man U were masters of those dirty little tackles which disrupted play, and demoralised the other team, stopping them from playing, without getting booked.
Of course I think such constant dirty and deliberate fouling should be punished. But I was always ahead of the curve, and it wasn’t then.
Vieira has more red cards than Keane ,and Pires won more penalty's (6) in one season ,than Giggs won in 20! (5!!)
@@colloquialsoliloquy6391 well maybe Pires was getting fouled. And my point is that Man U were masters of the little fouls that don’t get booked.

How many players has Keane tried to injure
It was normal back then he actually went for the ball most of the time
You could say the exact same about viera, this was just a bad game from united & arsenal were insane that season. Keane pocketed viera quite a few times tho.
Seems that everyone forgets that Keane was playing against the likes of Vinnie Jones, David Batty and Rob Lee on weekly basis
@@ocearbhaill3894 Name me ONE player Viera tried to or put out of football?
You can pretend all you want that Vieira was not judged by a different standard, if he made half the fouls Scholes did I could probably understand
@@MrAllenm94 Roy Keane lol?
The fact the types of Scholes and Keane got away with so extremely many dirty fouls during their career at Manchester United just shows what control Sir Alex had over the refs. And dont say "Viera was the same". No he wasnt. Not even close to Scholes and Keanes level. He played hard, yes. But Keane and Scholes sometimes went in to injure other players on purpose. The tackle Keane made on Håland back in the days could just as well had end his career. And that was far from the only time he mad tackles like that. When did Viera do a tackle like that? Never.
Bollocks. Stop making conspiracy theories up mate, you sound deranged. United used to ger awful decisions against them, you wont remember that tho as it doesn’t fit your agenda
When did viera tacklee like that? Have you seen when man united beat arsenal 6-1 and keane absolutely dominated viera all day🤣🤣wen has viera ever beat united like that🤣🤣🤣
The fact that you say that means you didn’t watch football back then and just watched these compilations made by Arsenal fans. Both teams were playing the same and playing tough with fouls that in todays game would be reds was the norm. Just watch the match from Community Shield from 2003 when both Neville and and Cole got a yellow for fouls in the first 2 minutes. You’ll see how both teams were playing tough. Also watch FA Cup final from 2005 and tell me Lauren didn’t actually do worse vs young Ronaldo. He had like 8 fouls that today would at least be a yellow. Also Vieira could have seen a red from the fouls on Ronaldo. But of course you are only watching what it suits you as Arsenal fan.
As an itaian football fan who's been at Old Trafford several times and sympathizes for both Arsenal and United, i don't love theories about coaches or teams corrupting referees or similar stuff (that has been proven to be true only about one team and that's juventus). I do think that Man Utd's status as most iconic english football team at some points of football history has contributed to them being treated a bit more softly than other teams by some refs. But that has been known to happen to many important and influential clubs. That said, anybody who says Roy Keane was better than Vieira and talks about ucl wins and shit, doesn't know much about football in my opinion.
You forget how beautiful and effortless Vieira was on the ball. For a guy with his physique and strength, his touch was like silk. 🤌
Could you imagine Keane playing for united now, he would be doing that to his own team
Aged well
He would be sent off every match.
no he'd get a fist in his feckin' gob and whimper away
Watch V during these days was incredible, guy ran the matches. Probably the backbone of the invincible team
People often say they believe Keane was better than Vieira, but honestly, I think Vieira was always better. The difference was always that Utd had Keane and Scholes as a midfield partnership. Maybe the best partnership of its generation. Wenger never quite found the equivalent of Scholes (let's be fair there wasn't one), and so it was always magnificent Vieira and a weaker partner vs an almost as good Keane, and a world class Scholes. My only regret of that time is that after the invincibles Real Madrid wanted Vieira and Arsenal turned it down. How amazing would it have been to see Vieira next to Zidane in that Galactico team.
I've never heard anyone but the most rabid ManU supporters claim Keane was better than Vieira 😀 Vieira was always the superior footballer, by quite a margin I'd say. It's just that Keane always had Scholes next to him, who was so versatile that you could afford to have a (comparatively) low-skill wrecking ball next to him. They made a good partnership, but the thing is, Vieira would shine no matter who was next to him, whereas Keane would not have.
@@Jugistoteles The one game with the bust up in the tunnel before the match Man u won 4-2. Only time Keane could ever say he got the better of Vieira, despite the head to head being slightly in favour of Keane for wins (7v5, which could easily be reversed if there were some decent refereeing in some of those encounters). On paper, they had similar careers. 7 top flight leagues, a UCL, but Vieira also had a World Cup, another WC final, and Euro 2000, AND was the beating heart of the Invincibles. Clear winner here is Vieira, who is, clearly one of the best ever DMs. Better than Kante or Makele. And daylight between Vieira and Keane.
@@emilpindur9400 Vieira never won the UCL. He was a bit part player in the World Cup win and was a sub throughout. Go on about Scholes being the real driving force all you want, but surely you've got to apply the same reasoning to Zidane in the 98 World Cup, plus all the other world class team mates that carried him to victory? Keane played for Ireland FFS so of course he's not going to do as well. Also, other than that 4-2 you mentioned, wasn't there a game where Keane scored twice in a 2-1 victory at Arsenal? Pretty sure he got the better of him that day too, not to mention when United beat Arsenal SIX - 1, and most other occasions TBH. Keane was the beating heart of the treble winners (who lost less games that season than the self titled 'invincibles' did in 03/04 and won 3x the trophies), a team that won three in a row, 7PLs in 9 years and broke records for points and winning with most games to spare - none of which Vieira did. Also - head to head in the PL - it’s Keane 5-3 vieira, and Keane missed one of those seasons through injury. Arsenal fans like to moan about refs, but you got away with murder yourselves - the 'battle of Old Trafford' in 2003 being a prime example. Plus David Ellary did all he could to win you that semi in 99 - but Vieira won it in the end - by passing it to Giggs
@@Jugistoteles
"I've never heard anyone but the most rabid ManU supporters claim Keane was better than Vieira"
Laughable that you call Keane a " (comparatively) low-skill wrecking ball". Such nonsense.
Keane was the all around superior football player.
Scored more goals and a better passer to boot. Keane was an attacking midfielder in his early days at Forest and was the clear better passer and assist man. He scored 33 goals in 154 games for Forest, over three seasons from the age of 19 to 21, with far less of a skilled cast around him than Vieira had at Arsenal.
How many goals did Vieira score? at that age? 10 Goals in 173 games for Arsenal (his first 4 seasons, I even gave Vieira an extra year and season, to make it look closer)
Vieira was powerful, stronger and better at defending.
Fact remains....Roy Keane scored more goals with his head as well.
Keane's goals powered United in the Champions League two years straight....Vieira rarely ever scored in the CL.
Vieira scored a whopping 2 goals in 66 European Games for Arsenal.
Keane scored 14 goals in 84 European Games for Man Utd.
At age 30 Keane had played total games = 472 - 77 goals
At age 30 Vieira had played total games = 523 - 43 goals
(Keane nearly doubles Vieira in terms of goals per game at this point)
Vieira should have been scoring 10 goals a year with his head, from corners and free kicks with his strength, athleticism, power and height. Frankly it's embarrassing that he did not.
People love to point to the Vieira/Keane battles....fact is, Vieira was 5 years younger, and did not start to get the edge on Keane till post 2001, when Keane was 29 and had gone through severe knee and hip injuries.
Arsenal fans always seem to forget the Keane pre-2000, when trying to assess the Viera-Keane rivalry.
" It's just that Keane always had Scholes next to him"
Oh, always? Is that so? Scholes did not even finally secure the starting midfield spot next to Keane full time until 1997-1998 and Keane missed half that season as you may recall. Before that, he never started more than 16 games in a season and was shuttled around at striker as well in his first three years.
You seem to forget, that Keane played for Forest from 90 to 93.... Keane arrived at United in 1993, displacing Bryan Robson.....he had Paul Ince beside him for the first two years, then Nicky Butt was his primary partner in 95-96 & 96-97. 98-99 was the first year that Keane/Scholes were the full first choice pairing, with both healthy.
"Vieira would shine no matter who was next to him, whereas Keane would not have"
Really? Keane was shining with Nicky Butt next to him, who provided little in the way of attacking capability.
Vieira was in full decline by the beginning of the 2004 season at only 28, and he had Gilberto Silva next to him, who was hardly a poor player.
Did Vieira shine at Juve with Emerson next to him? Nope. He was only 29 when he got there.
and Inter? He was 30 when he got there....How'd he do with Figo, Cambiasso and Stankovic next to him? He got beaten out for the starting role by Olivier DaCourt, and was never even a full time starter again.
How about the 2002 world cup? 26 years old....in his prime....total failure without Zidane next to him. Why did he not stamp his authority on that World Cup?
2006 world cup, still only 30...totally average, even with superstars around him. Average in the group stage at best. Good vs Spain in the 1st round knockout, Decent in the quarters vs Brazil, Average vs Portugal in the Semis, Let Materazzi outfight him for Italy's equalizer in the final, poor, then limped off in the 60th minute into the sunset
How about France in general....he had legends next to him....Keane had virtually nothing with Ireland....and yet, Vieira had 101 caps and 6 goals for France, while Keane had 9 goals in 67.....and had to shoulder far more of the attacking load in central midfield than Vieira did with the attacking superstars around him.
Get over it....Vieira was a great footballer, powerful, strong, ferocious and a driving force....but simply not as good all around as Keane.
@USCFlash Cool story but you, for most of your essay, seem to confuse player ability with goals scored. You also make several erroneous claims / questionable interpretations but I won't go into them because this is UA-cam comment section and it's Christmas over here.
All that's not to say you didn't make some good points there. You wrote *a lot*, by the way! 😁 A part of me hopes you copy-pasted some of that from something you've wrote elsewhere before. But anyway. This is as much as I'll engage over here - thought I'd say that to save further time for you. Why I'm even is responding is to acknowledge the work you put in (I don't usually respond because of kids, busy job etc and there's hardly any time for this).

Vieira is one of the legends in midfield.. far better than keane.. or nowadays players like casemiro, kante etc etc
They don’t make em like Vieira anymore at Arsenal,lol. He was a monster of a player and used to put fear in opponents.
At least Thomas Partey is trying to some degree.
@@rarefootball10 Partey is good, finally we have a midfielder of that profile who is a colossus in the middle of the park. But even still, he cannot lace Paddy’s boots. Paddy rarely got injured, he was a man of steel. Proper captain. But regardless, hopefully Partey does it for us this year!
Except to Keane obviously..
😆😆😆@@rarefootball10
I'm a Liverpool fan and I remember seeing Viera. Huge frame but so skilled and elegant. Massive amounts of skill AND toughness. Pretty much any team ever would want PV in their starting 11.
This video explains why he is such a monster in FIFA 😂
He had such long legs, he was like a skilful Carlton Palmer 🤣🤣
Keane was NOT a hard man of football but a mere nasty thug on the pitch. Vieira was like a Preying Mantis with those lanky legs but he made the game and tackling look so easy & effortless. He is definitely an underrated past player from a Gers supporter here.
Roy Keane, the most successful thug in the history of British football.
He is the Donald Trump of football.
Viera was indeed a monster...I wasn't privileged to watch him
No probs, Solomon. At least you got to watch Sunil Chhetri
@@downtoearth5443 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I miss this PL era with the Keane Vieira Van Nistelrooy hatred. And Paul Scholes, the greatest tackler the game has ever seen.
Yet Keano,small for a bully , got warned by Vinnie Jones early in a United match against Wimbledon and Keane never went near Jones for the rest of the match .Keane knew that if he tried to mix it with Vinnie on the field there would be afters in the players tunnel and Keane would certainly have come off worst !
Talking about Keane throughout his career, what a cheek to have a go at Norman Hunter.
one of the greatest defensive midfielders i have ever seen a pure football engine.
Indeed.. Vieira Drops Performance of ages, I remember he 'Vieira' dictates the intire midfielder and to be honestly he wasn't playing dirty game he was like gentle of football but Kean Drops Dirtiest Performance of ages and he deserved a red card, I'm Man United fan but I always love fair game, I know Roy is An Irish his DNA is to play a dirty game 'That was his nature' but don't forget one more thing, perhaps the most important influence in the game Sir Alex Fergusson used to tell his players to kick the top player of their opposition.. if I'm wrong you can correct me
There's a documentary where his own players say he used to tell them to play dirty

It was generally accepted that when Arsenal and UTD played if Keane got the better of Viera UTD would win and visa-versa.
Utd won a lot more often than Arsenal
Roy keane is like a player in EA FC that is being controlled by a toddler
💪 But viera was beast 😁
That was one of the best Vieira performances i saw tbh remember watching that match
Those were the battles of personalities and titles, epic. Now just battle of wages!!!!
I always maintain that Keane was as Coward, not a hard man. Sly tackles, tackles from the back, he knew no-one could do anything to him apart from a Booking or sending off. Alan Shearer always owned him, there was a real Man.
I don't remember that much about Keane but watching this I'm asking myself why was it allowed to "play" in the first place? Ok I know that back then the premier league was the hardest one, well, that what we saw from France anyway but this guy is just dangerous on the field.
wow, Kene such a coward. Adds no football value as a midfielder just trying to break a better footballers legs.
Your a crackpot Keane was an all round brilliant midfielder the most reliable midfielder the prem has seen forget all the hardman bollix it doesn't mean anything nobody even thinks about that when it comes to football
Alan shearer didnt own anything🤣🤣🤣

I prefer this era of football. Players were men and settled their own scores instead of rolling around like they’ve been shot
This was definitely the best era in Football.
Very Excellent Thierry And Pivotal Vieira!
This video just show how good Vieira was during those days. Probably the best midfielder in the world in that period. It is common knowledge that referees used to fear Alex Ferguson and many 50-50 decisions used to go Man Utd way. Not taking anything from them as they were definitely the strongest team then, but perhaps a title or 2 should probably go to another team.
Is that the music from GTA III?
Viera and Petit in the hart beat of ARS back in the day. Just Awesome 😎
Shame to say this as an Englishman but the French are just so much more elegant on the ball.

“Arguably best player” - don’t disrespect. Henry there with the word “arguably”
Man United dirty buggers who had refs in back pockets also let's not forget Fergie time.
This Keane got to be one of the dirtiest players to ever grace the green pitch.
Viera was ahead of his time in that agressif era of football he just win the ball cleanly.
No wonder Messi and Ronaldo had a long career, in those time they would picked up serious injuries
Vieira a beast and all around a better football player than Roy keane who was a good player at that time but just for the premier league. He wouldn't had make it in Serie A or in la Liga.
Roy keane bossed viera about when he beat him 6-1, won more medals, and had a better career. All round better footballer, viera was mediocre. Not good enough
Premier league was better than serie a and la liga back then you fool😂😂bless ya
Gta music makes this video even better🤣
That’s it. You have a legend of the game on one hand: athletic, technical, versatile with a magnificent vision. On the other hand, there is this angry little man who tries to compensate his weak football abilities by being as brutal as possible.
The most amazing things is how he got away with so much brutality and how a group of people can idolise him for being no more than a thief on the pitch. I love tough players with character. This guy was just mean.
That is one of the best comments I have ever read. Kean was a dirty no ability little bollocks
I know keane was far superior to that animal viera. A champions league winner who bossed zidane about in europe. Viera could never bless him. He had such an average career
Spot on. Vieira was a class above.
Keane should have seen red. I know it was a different era but Keane benefitted from being a United stalwart and got away with murder. Even ginger Scholes got away with a few. His legacy was built after he retired. Rewatch the 99 semi against Juve. Keane gets all the credit but the best man united players were Cole and Yorke (really classy performances). Didn't suit the media narrative who needed a "British" Roy of the rovers story. Keane is credited with "single-handedly carrying United to the final and everyone laps it up as gospel.
All vieras tackles where clean
Keane should have been banned for life after intentionally injuring Erling Haaland's father which eventually forced him into retirement.
Agree! I did not know the player Keane intentionally injured was Erling's dad! As a former ManU fan, I never liked Keane for his aggression. Vindictive character, no hero. I am glad Erling is doing so well for Man City, causing much chagrin to ManU fans. What a way to 'avenge' his dad.
Modern day football is so shit compared to this. I'm only 29 but my god, the amount of soul that has left football since I've been watching is depressing
That's why keane is nothing more than a school girl
Keane bullied viera when united beat arsenal 6-1 .don’t remember arsenal giving united a beating that bad?
