3) Patrick the murderer
“If it had come to a fight, Patrick could probably have killed me”. – Roy Keane.
One of the greatest midfield battles of the previous era was that of Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira. These days, we don’t find such battles taking place in the middle of the pitch. The combined mental strength of these two is far greater than most of today’s players’ character amalgamated.
The football fraternity witnessed a lot of battles between these two. Once, things went beyond the scope rationality, and, hence, in that moment of chaos, judgments were shrouded by a thick nebulous of wrath.
During a brawl in the tunnel, Vieira was so angered that he might as well have killed the United legend if matters ended up in a fracas. At least that is what Keane thinks.
