      Considering he dominated the middle of the park during United's most prolific period of success, Roy Keane is by no means a fake tough man. Vinnie Jones had quite a bit more height and weight on him than Roy. But pound for pound Jones couldn't touch Roy on the pitch as a player. And in football that's the only fight that matters.

      Fashanu pushed Keane after the head-butt and Keane still didn't react. Keane concentrated on getting the ball for the throw in, Utd were awarded.
      The truth is, their reactions weren't unusual for the time. There wasn't a team in their division, that wanted to get into it with Wimbledon. They could manhandle any team in the division. It was best to just stick to the football, win the match and get out of dodge!

There was less money in the game so every team just gave it a go, rather than playing cautiously & worrying about their possession stats. And because there was less money in it, it was cheaper to go, so it attracted the actual fans rather than ppl being there for a day out or the spectacle of it. Modern PL games remind me of Las Vegas boxing - a lot of ppl there aren't even supporters. They just want to take some selfies.

      @@MrMarcoUnico totally agree. CR7 & Messi are the very top talent & product of the game today. But Maradona was on a different level. He didn't dive, roll around like he'd been shot, he got up dusted himself down then wanted the ball back at his feet. He doesn't even get close to the credit he deserves. He won seria A with napoli virtually on his own. Taking a provincial club like Napoli to the scudetto in a league where defence has always been high quality. He carried Napoli to that scudetto whilst defenders tried to kick him off the park every game. He also carried Argentina to a world Cup win. For 1 player to b able to achieve such things almost single handed whilst being a target for the most brutal tackles is astounding. The fact FIFA don't acknowledge this because he was a white Latino, and a human being with genuinely human mental health and other issues is appalling. And the fact they handed Diegos crown to Pele is disgrace to the game. Pele played in some great Brazilian teams. Maradona made teams great. Such a shame FiFA have to play racial games rather than confirm what the football world genuinely knows.

      @@pierer91Yes, many people.
      Cantona is lucky to not be firmly planted into the ground here, thus he goes airborne when he gets hit. Otherwise the potential consequences are broken legs, torn ACLs, etc.
      Or rather, he wasn't merely lucky -- back then everyone was constantly watching out for such tackles and was on his toes ready to jump. You didn't really survive to reach that level if you didn't developed such instincts -- your career ended in the youth teams already.
      P.S. Maradona got his leg broken when he played for Barcelona against Bilbao by exactly that type of tackle, i.e. "both travelling in the same direction". It wasn't career ending, but still it was a badly broken leg, and it could have been worse.

    This is such a fascinating video really. It encapsulates in a few minutes the difference between then and now. Starts with a long ball up the line, two footed lunge from the Wimbledon, no bother, play on. Then a prone Vinnie Jones throws a headbutt at Roy Keane's midriff as he runs by him. No bother for Roy and the rest, just handbags really, play on. Then Jones tries to snap Cantona in half with a tackle that's probably red nowadays. Cantona straight up, no rolling around and a little bit of aggro between the players but no overly zealous referee flashing cards everywhere. It's just fascinating really. You might say football is more technical now and for many it's better but I enjoyed that temperature that was allowed to go into games back then. Now, a lot of games develop into slow snoozefests

      Well, it doesn't, actually. No one is going to claim Vinnie was an especially gifted footballer, but he could pass and play. He just happened to be more of an asset as an enforcer. Different times. He wouldn't have stood out much in the 70s. He was among the last of a dying breed in the 80s and definitely by the 90s and the Premier League.
