My absolute favourite ever United legend. Name your son after him kinda tier for me
Roy Keane
- Thread starter MyOnlySolskjaer
- Start date
He called Arteta sore loser 
You cannot name a child Roy in 2022, it's just wrong.
He has a good middle name
Dont be positive Roy! You'll get the sack.
On a serious note, is this the most praiseful he has been of United since Fergie left?

Did sky pick up the keane chants that went on for a good 15 mins after the game! Was class. He is just an absolute legend!

Give that a reread
Yeah they did mention the Keane songs. Could be heard clearly when they were pitchside straight after the final whistle.
We don't get Sky commentary in the US - was he wanking off the opponents in order not to be accused of having Man Utd bias?
A refreshing change from the defeatist Gary Neville.
No chance of that happening. Honestly think he's a bit twisted in the head.
Love how much of a fan he is... Clearly very happy with the effort the team are putting in and the character we're showing at the moment.
Roy’s an optimist at heart. Neville is a pessimist in reality.
Ugh, he is just the best.
They’re both perfectionists but Neville is the pessimistic type who is always worried about what could go wrong, Keane’s always thinking about what could go right if you’re brave
That's a really keen observation and bang on. Keane has such a great energy about him.
Just catching up on the post game stuff. Keane really rates ETH doesn’t he. Couple of times he’s done that post match interview at the side of the pitch and you can tell Roy loves it.
Love this version of Roy, waited a long time for Utd to give him a team to be optimistic about
Particularly after the Liverpool game Ten Hag was interviewed again and you could see by Keane he didn't pour scorn on anything he said. He was straightforward and honest, no airs or graces , called it as it was. No bullshit. Things that Keane instantly identifies with and resonates with him.
Keane has been banging on for years and years now about a lack of character and passion, whereas the likes of Neville and co. have persisted with "we need X type of specialists in X position" and almost overcomplicated what the issue is.
ETH has come in and brought in not just quality, but real characters. Eriksen, I mean nothing more needing to be said there, the guy literally is back from the dead. Antony, Martinez, Casemiro, Malacia, they all seem to have that born competitor mentality about them, and top characters too because you only need to look at the camaraderie on the pitch to see it.
And what's more important is why they've replaced - the likes of Shaw and Maguire who play with zero personality. I think Keane respects that ETH has identified what he has been banging on about, and is the main reason for the nod for top 4.

I would love if he somehow gets involved in our team. Assistent or coach or something. Always been top professional.
We all know history about him and Sir Alex Ferguson. We all can see how much he loves ManUtd despite what happened long time ago.

Merson is clueless Keane had him on toast.
Good call. You can see in this clip why Keane was a legend of a player but wasn't a great manager. No patience, standards insane and too blinded by rage to manage but treated every game like a derby.
If you've read or seen Remains of the Day, Roy Kent/Roy Keane reminds me of the protagonist if he was full of rage.
Thanks for posting it, it's brilliant, and it's absolutely spot on. "I know why they lost"
Can you imagine Keane playing under Ten Hag? Match made in heaven regarding standards (rightly so as well)
I love the man and you can see why we won so many underserved matches while he was captain. He always has a positive outlook.
Really get the feeling Keane likes EtH. Which I guess tells you all you need to know about our new manager. If Keane respects him then that is good enough for me.
No worse than SAF was when his Aberdeen team won the cup wasn’t it and he came out throwing them all under a bus. Still today he can’t explain his actions. He learnt to go the opposite way quickly in terms of protecting the group, Roy on the other hand..never did. The tape thing was a nonsense excuse by Fergie to get him out. You have Rooney saying his words weren’t that bad and ronaldo coming over to hug him at every opportunity. Two of the young players Roy had apparently said aren’t good enough for Man United…all nonsense.
It's so sweet seeing a man of Roy's age in love all over again. He's got a serious hard on for ETH and being serious for a second it's nice to see so much respect.
This thread is making me feel rather queasy.
Great point on why he didn't excel as a manager, which at the end of the day is our gain as he's just brilliant on Sky these days.
