The distaste he has for losing the title to city to this day shows why he's a legend. Mans got all the passion. Wish todays players still had that. - arsenal fan

True

Arsenal fans are the the only opposing clubs fans I actually respect 👌💯💯

[@jiren6637]

lol they won it the next season

[@francismeehan5298]

I been watching united 35 years ..i am excited its a pressure free rest of season only for those who want to be united players ...i believe ole will instill what it means to play at old trafford ..he has zero pressure on results...a man united spirit will be created ..95 /96 we where 12 points behind in april and won it ..united have always had a culture pre ferguson there was a culture ...between van gall moyes and jose that culture was lost on pressure to win ...fast attacking football first with wingers ...enjoy the process enjoy the football the players who dont know how to be united players will be weeded out by season end ..than 2019 /20 weather solskjaer is managing or not i really think this is our long term ...

Rio was definitely one of the best CB's to ever grace the League.

[@ukbigjon]

The league... Mate he's one of the best cb's to grace the game. He was so intelligent in his positioning, great passer, brave, tough, loads of pace, great communicator. He had it all in spades. Legend

Nostalgia overload with those 90s serie A kits...god bless channel 4 gazetta football italia.

[@Leaps-xz3hg]

as a Brazilian I love the respect Rio gave to Romario, he is by far the most underrated striker in the world. To me he might be the best striker or player to ever exist, he has the most goals, more than Messi and C. Ronaldo. Romario deserves to be in the conversation, best striker inside the box.

[@berekethaile8420]

The problem for Romario was that he missed the 1998 WC to many of that generation was the highlight. Zidane, Ronaldo where benefited from that time.

[@jackbanks2018]

This series will be something special

[@12Hydrocarbon]

Rio + Vidic = Manchester United

[@ijuwan17]

Don't forget Van der Sar man... Ferdinand and Vidic was amazing! But with Barthez, they were ... But when VDS was in the mix, these big3 were defensive All Star!

Just ripping through Baggio, Romario, Ronaldo, brought back memories man. I always remember Romario for battering the Brazilian fan, I think it was, during training, he was slagging the players off and he went up into the stand and filled him in. Awesome player.

yes Rio I agree R9, the defenders he destroyed, were the greatest of all time, so for me he is the peak, Maradona too, and John Barnes was my hero too his football genius could not be denied, and he as a person is a great man, he was a role model for me and I am white, so maybe somewhat ground breaking in that regard. Dude has such integrity, nothing but love for Barnsey, and Romario possibly the best out and out finisher I have ever seen
