“I imagine managing Roy Keane would be very difficult” why? Such a silly thing to say, I’m not the biggest football fan but I’m pretty sure all it required was A) showing him basic respect. B) Know what you’re talking about and C) have a winning mentality. If you can’t muster that you’ve no business managing.

[@mrsoikawa]

exactly what I was going to write. I would have imagined he would have been incredibly easy to manage if the management were anywhere near competent

[@simsey33]

He was self managing. Simple as

[@MinisterManDan]

He fell out with Fergie at the end of his career, it’s sad but it’s not exactly an unprecedented thing that a proud player who is at the end is the last guy to realize he’s spent. The only other manager he ever fell out with is Mick McCarthy, who wasn’t fit to run a chip shop. When people say Roy was tough to manage, well he couldn’t have been too tough because he played 98% of his club career for two managers and the only reason Forest let him leave was because they got relegated and Clough left, Clough didn’t want to let him go for love or money.

[@leehambleton9919]

Difficult to manage no chance Roy wanted to win every game I would have thought he was easy to manage the players at United now I would say are hard to manage because they don't realise or don't care what it means to play for that club

[@michaelkumar2530]

Ben heath likes drama. If you listen to some of his questions, that is his aim. It makes good viewing. I wouldnt take an interview by him though.

[@gateway1739]

Most of the time? Nearly every time he stepped onto a pitch he performed. He inspired and drove every other player on his team to the next level. What United would give for another Roy Keane now.

[@coalfacechris1336]

Agree mate, and I would take another Carrick as well. The talent has still been there even since SAF retired. What the team needs is leadership on the field and in the sheds - to ground these young guys and drive a proper work ethic. Bruno is a talisman, but the team needs leaders in the vein of Keane, Carrick, Bruce, Robbo etc. to pull it all together.

[@Geokinkladze]

His level had dropped towards the end.

[@pedrobandito2]

@@Geokinkladzeand was still above most players (even ones more talented than him)

[@Geokinkladze]

@@pedrobandito2 "most players" Not at Utd at the time. The prob at the time was working out if the drop was permanent (class and form saying) or temporary (Scholes came back from injury once and was crap for a while, turns out he was just off the pace) Fergie had seen plenty of evidence showing f or keane it was permanent. Keane's struggles at Celtic showed he was right.

[@malabuman2463]

"Man Utd Coach Gives Insight into Roy Keane Fallout" So Mike, what happened? ' I can't answer that for you, it was between those two ' I always bite at the bait 🙄

[@martin-d4h]

Roy explains it in detail in his book, I think it is in the second book he done. All from Roys perspective of course, but the book is well worth a read. I found his explanation of the meeting in the managers office with all the playing squad which basically ended his time there hilarious.

[@EnshroudedLad]

Thanks for the heads up

[@dawnmancaloriankeebals4262]

Mike wasn't in the meeting, it was sir Alex and Queiroz. Mike has previously stated that he has never felt the need to ask the boss about what happened.

[@foyble]

I can’t believe this says “ex man United coach” and not “Mike Phelan.” He was a serial achiever as a coach wherever he went. Respect him enough to use is name.

[@b.alexanderjohnstone9774]

He’d be a joy to manage. Far better than these sensitive souls now who you can’t raise your voice to but who think they are all special.

[@samanglais]

I randomly watched some of the 2005 Fa Cup Final the other day, Man Utd V Arsenal. Roy played 120 minutes, scored a pen in the shootout, and played well from what I could see! Anyone aged 30 or over generally gets pulled off before 90 minutes these days!

[@Wozefootballchannel]

Modric and Kroos play golf then or you just dont watch football outside United

[@samanglais]

​@@Wozefootballchannel I'm not even a 'United' fan. Modric barely starts now. Kroos is in the most dominant team of all time but in the big games, when it's heavy going, I've seen him come off.

[@Wozefootballchannel]

@@samanglais in 2005 keane was 35 and Modric played full games when he was at that age and i watch madrid games.you can do your research

[@jasonwolfe5787]

Watched him play against France at landsdowne Rd in 2005 aswell, France had Vieira, Makalele and Zidane in midfield, Roy was absolutely outstanding. We lost 1 nil but those were 3 of the greats of the modern game and he was dominant against them. I think people just think he was a thug but he was an excellent player.

[@coalfacechris1336]

@@jasonwolfe5787 In United's Top 5 greatest ever midfielders, and if he'd left at his peak and went to Italy or Spain, he would be spoken in about in same breath as his peers at the time. Imagine if he'd gone the Galactico's instead of Graveson? But it's all the other club's players and supporters who had their collective arses handed to them by Keane that only concentrate on the Haaland tackle - a player nobody would even remember otherwise, except in my book for engaging in a grub act standing over the top of a badly injured player abusing him about his deserved wages. Yes, Keano should have taken the higher ground there and waved the winners medals in Alfe's face, but history shows payback is a bitch in a contact sport.

[@garethdeere4822]

Roy was a winner and gave everything for the team. So many utd players now just want the money .

[@carlmason4153]

Footballers in General Just want the money Not Man Utd players alone. the game is lost to the supporters

[@barrymckenna8547]

Didn’t Roy Keane threaten to leave unless he got a massive pay rise

[@morrisanderson3180]

​@@barrymckenna8547 I reckon so.

[@RevealedFilms]

They all want the money, some just want the success as well. Same way you are at work…it’s no different. Players are employees and fans are just loyal customers of the product being sold…don’t ever forget that.

[@barryb90]

@@barrymckenna8547 Yes, he did. He just won a treble, the PFA, FWA and finished 6th in a Balon D'or. Nothing wrong with flexing your muscle to get a pay rise. He was the first player in England to break the 100k weekly wage.

[@user-ht9mh4cm3f]

Asking if it was difficult to coach somebody like Roy is the kind of question someone who doesn't understand the game would ask. Hot head/pride aside, he'd be a coach's dream.

[@foppo101]

Roy Keene was a top player and a very proud man.People like that you treat with respect.They either fight back or walk away manager or not.

[@LC-gs6qv]

He didn't say anything we didn't already know!

[@MichaelMulqueen-j6c]

Every time I think about Roy Kean I keep coming back to the same thought that if man united had a winning minded totally focused and concentrated leader like him again it would make the difference be tween us winning and not its what we need

[@sallycinnamon15]

It's amazing how people who've never shared a pitch or a dressing room with Roy Keane have a pre-conceived notion about his personality. That initial question could, and should, have been so much better.

[@curley247]

This interviewer wanted Phelan to bash Keane…

[@philt6440]

And looked bored when he didn't get any juice for his podcast 2:43

[@robwood8331]

[@TheGreenDevil21]

[@tommalone58]

Sir Alex assembled a team of individual talents and unique egos, and made them a winning blend. It took some man management

[@eoinmaguire6691]

I still see Roy now so I can only say good things😂🇮🇪☘️☘️☘️

[@mmlentertainment]

I remember Phelan playing that was way way back

[@michaeljohnson-km6ig]

Keane was a top player and was tough on himself. And wanted his teammates to want the mentality to win and have pride. How many players would get booked in a semi final of a European cup and know they were to miss final and think, right this is my final I'm going to get my team there. Players these days care more about money than winning trophies.

[@jasonmcardle4087]

Fergie threw keane under the bus. Keane's problem with ferguson was making up lies so he had an excuse to do what he did. Whatever you wanna think about keane hes honest and loves utd. The infamous video where hes supposedly brought up players contracts and wages never happened. Rooney Scholes giggs nevil butt have all said what keane said on the video was bang on keane just told them all where they went wrong who played bad, he was utds cpt he was out injured with a broken foot. Ferguson has done it to plenty of players over the years Beckham another 1 he did dirty

[@Ali920a]

Keane then went on to throw players under the bus weekly as a coach you would think he learnt something.

[@I.Wallivs]

We know why he was let go. He was the last of that kind of persoanlity in a game and dressing rooms that were pandering to players rather than bringing them through tough. Thats why the decision was made, the interview was just the spark. In the end i think fergie actually got it correct in the long run but ousting him publically was the wrong way to do it, keane loved the club that he felt was his and to be dropped like that still hurts him, loyalty means everything to him. As much as I'd love to see him and ferguson bury the hatchet to keano it'd mean backing down on everything he stands for, so it wont happen. The managers power of foresight was completely correct but let down terribly by its execution, keanos naïvety was his downfall so quickly, he didnt notice the game passing him by in terms of a younger, softer generation coming through and he let himself light the tinder. That being said he should have left under a shower of applause and praise for what he did for the club

[@mrdeafa25]

If you understand how people with autism cope with life and turn negatives into positives then managing Roy Keane would be a breeze. He is a high performing autistic adult with a one dimensional outlook on life who has achieved great things and inspired others. I'm not sure Mike Phelan has given much insight into that.
