Patrick Vieira reopens his feud with Roy Keane by joking he doesn't want to touch his old rival's shirt as he recalls their battles and 'respect' for each other... despite insisting he was a 'much better' player than the Manchester United legend

Patrick Vieira couldn't resist a few digs at Roy Keane in the latest installment of BT Sport's What I Wore series, joking that he didn't want to touch the Manchester United legend's shirt while insisting he was the 'much better' player of the two.

Vieira enjoyed an iconic rivalry with Keane during his time at Arsenal, sharing a number of fiery and ill-tempered battles on the pitch as the Gunners and United went toe-to-toe at the top of the Premier League.

Their mutual disdain also boiled over during an infamous 2005 spat in the Highbury tunnel, where a furious Keane could be heard shouting that his old adversary was 'not a nice guy'.
