Roy Keane is undoubtedly one of the hardest men in football. That is a fact. Oh, what, you don’t believe us? That’s fine. Go and take it up with him and see what happens.
We certainly won’t be backing down on the claim anytime soon, merely out of fear, as he is one seriously fierce individual – even these days.
Throughout a glistening career where he established himself as one of the Premier League’s greatest ever midfielders – and one of the best in Europe during his peak – Keane also earned a reputation for being notoriously tough.
There wasn’t – and probably still isn’t – such a thing as ‘too physical’ or ‘too rough’ in Keane’s book, with him loving a crunching tackle or a scrap on the pitch just as much as the game itself.
