The point is not the mentality, it is that they showed no remorse for what they did. We have had people on here for the ast week looking for remorse from players from other teams, but are blinded as to the non apologetic remorse from their own players!

Do as we say but don't do as we do!

DOUBLE STANDARDS!

Cantona and Keane will long be remembered after saurez is forgotten.  Both of them were arrogant and Keane in particular was aggressive. I would never have expected either of them to show remorse. It was/is not their character. It is also not in saurez's character to appoligise for what he has done. At least the other 2 admit and accept what they done.

Cantona and Keane will long be remembered after saurez is forgotten.  Time will tell, who knows?

Both of them were arrogant and Keane in particular was aggressive. Sounds LIKE Suarez!

It is also not in saurez's character to appoligise for what he has done. Ditto for the two Lads.

At least the other 2 admit and accept what they done. Sounds LIKE Suarez.

Truth be told if Keane or Cantona had played for Liverpool and commited those acts the United fans would hate them the same way they hate Suarez now. And if Suarez played for United the United fans would love him.
Such a fine line in between being hated and being a hero.

Truth be told if Keane or Cantona had played for Liverpool instead of United they wouldn't have won all those trophies,awards to make them heroes.

Truth be told I'm not a Liverpool fan but if Keane and Cantona had played for Liverpool there is a good chance Liverpool would have won the league. If Keane and Cantona had played for any club at the same time there is a good chance that club would have won something they were that good......truth be told

In the mid,late nineties Liverpool weren't even title contenders and truth be told one or two better players wouldn't have won them the league.

You are the one having a laugh, One guy tried to injure a spectator. The other purposefully ended the career of a fellow professional. There is being the tough guy on the pitch, but you don't take it to the stand or to a personal vendetta.

As for your point about neither playing, unless you were not born or started following United after 2005, one or both of these have been players that played for your favourite team and their unfortunate behavour had no influence on you changing allegances.

For the umpteenth time, Keane's tackle did NOT end Haaland's career.

The tackle by Roy Keane in the derby in April 2001 put the Norwegian out for a long time, he never played a full 90 minutes again. He underwent an operation on his knee and despite resuming training in the pre season he was forced to withdraw for a second operation. He received a setback when his knee swelled up once more and he was sidelined again. Alfie went through the following two seasons without having started a game for the Blues.

It looked more and more like Alfie was loosing his fitness battle and in February 2003 the club sent him a six month notice on his contract and he was due to leave Manchester City in August 2003. However Keegan decided to give him a last chance to prove his fitness and when pre-season training started Alfie was in place to battle for a place in the squad.

In the summer of 2003 Manchester City midfielder Alf Inge Haaland retires from football. The 30-year-old Manchester City admitted defeat in his battle to overcome a serious knee injury.
