Jason McAteer & Gary Kelly on Roy Keane's hardman persona

[@arcturus2739]

Roy Keane's aggression and how intimidating he was often makes people overlook what a great player he was.

[@johnmcintosh5465]

Not at all , It's just something that puts others off him that are in the game, but no football fans think he wasn't a great leader most supporters would have had him in their teams any day ✌️.

[@rememberthisnameslut]

Disagree. His aggression made him the player he was. Never settle for mediocrity, always striving for more. Its not difficult to link the 2 to contribute it towards why he was such a great player

[@arcturus2739]

@@rememberthisnameslut No, what I mean is that people just look at his aggression, and do not appreciate how he controlled the game from the midfield. I am a relatively young fan, and that was my mindset before, until I started watching full 90 minute games during quarantine.

As Giggs once said.. He can't imagine choosing a utd all time 11 or world 11 without Keane in it. Great player who very rarely gave the ball away.

[@paulmallon9292]

@David Michaels funny, I actually remember that. But keane was a great player. He has branded himself as something of a hard man no nonsense player but he was an exceptional footballer. His passing was excellent. Rooney even commented that he was the best passer of the ball he ever played with. Always directly to the feet quickly and almost always forward.

I'd be annoyed after being 2-0 up and throwing It away & can't understand why anyone would consider It as a good result

[@nigefal]

You are not Irish obviously? It was away in Holland. Plus at the time the Dutch were one of the best teams in world football in 2000. Also in the end it actually was a good result because Ireland ended up coming second in the group knocking the Dutch out. Also McAteer scored in the return fixture in Dublin where Ireland beat the Dutch 1-0.

[@johnmcintosh5465]

nigefal Yeah your right I'm not Irish but my opinion is based on the facts Ireland had a 2-0 lead with 25 minutes left in the game, And as for being one of the best teams in the world as you said Holland were ? They actually failed to qualify form the group for that 2002 World Cup . And football is all about opinions and I stand by what I said and actually agree as to why Roy was upset at losing a 2 goal advantage with 25 minutes left of the 90 minutes. ✌️
