Arsene Wenger left in awe at "incredible" Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira relationship

Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has labelled Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira’s modern day friendship as “incredible” despite the pair being “ready to kill each other” during their respective playing days.

Battles between the two midfield generals are iconic images of the Premier League era as the Gunners and Manchester United battled for honours around the turn of the century. On more than one occasion, the pair came to blows on the pitch.

Their tense showdown in the tunnel at Highbury is also a much talked about argument between Keane and Vieira. Despite their often explosive relationship, the duo appear to have patched things up over recent years since hanging up their boots.
