‘You’re insulting me’ – Roy Keane fumes at Gary Neville leaving former Man Utd team-mate stunned during disagreement

MANCHESTER UNITED legend Roy Keane accused former team-mate Gary Neville of “insulting” him during a heated debate.

The pair were discussing which position is the easiest to play on the pitch during an episode of the Stick to Football podcast by SkyBet.

Ex-midfielder Keane argued: “Right-back is the easiest position to play,” prompting Arsenal legend Ian Wright to agree, saying: “Yeah, you can see everything, you can get up the pitch.”

But Neville, who played as a right-back for both Man Utd and England, claimed: “I think that’s, to be fair, subjective. Because I think if you’re playing against a wide player that’s quick and has got some skill, right-back is not easy.”

Pointing at Keane, the England star continued: “If you’re in midfield against players who can’t pass a ball…”

However, Keane quickly chimed in, saying: “Put it this way, I went to right back, listen. I done a decent job for the team. I know we were strong. You couldn’t go into midfield and do what I was doing.”

Wright went on to say: “Because it’s (playing right-back) easier to do! You’ve done brilliantly at right-back, but it was easier to do.”

Neville then joked: “I think for 10 years my career has been ridiculed,” before staking his claim that either centre-forward or goalkeeper is the hardest position.

But eventually, after a lengthy discussion during which Neville suggested midfielders don’t tend to do as much running as full-backs, Keane said: “You’re kind of insulting me. There’s a couple of insults coming my way.”

Following his senior debut in 1992, Neville made over 600 appearances for Man Utd.

Meanwhile, Keane made 476 appearances for the Red Devils during his time at Old Trafford.

The pair also discussed how much Keane, who set United back £3.75million in 1993, would be worth in the current transfer market.

Neville argued: “What was Declan Rice? £100million. You’d be worth £100million.”

And while Keane sipped his drink, he casually responded: “Thought so.”
