Keane played for United from 1993 to 2005, winning almost everything there is to win – the no-nonsense midfielder lifted seven Premier League titles, as well as the FA Cup and Champions League.

He would certainly set the standards around the place, and the players would most likely fear him given his fiery reputation from his playing days.
