Man Utd: Roy Keane's list of five world-class teammates includes Scholes & Giggs

Roy Keane was key to Manchester United’s dominance over English football in the 1990s and early 2000s.

The Irishman was an absolute warrior in midfield throughout his career and on top of that, he was a genuinely world-class footballer.

Keane possessed a first touch better than most, was a brilliant tackler, could dictate the tempo of games and even chipped in with crucial goals.

What more could you want from a midfielder?

If you were asked to name the genuinely world-class players from Sir Alex Ferguson’s long reign as United manager, Keane would simply have to be one of them.

But which others would feature? Well, opinions on that matter will differ greatly, especially as there’s so many top-quality players to pick from.

Keane actually gave his answers to the tough question when he was a guest on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football back in 2019.

"I think we both really loved and wanted to do what was best for Manchester United." ❤"Senior players ultimately run the dressing room."
