John O'Shea lifts the lid on THAT fiery Highbury tunnel row between Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira... and reveals how 'clever' Gary Neville made the Man United captain 'go into overdrive' before facing bitter rivals Arsenal

Former Manchester United star John O'Shea has opened up on the infamous Highbury tunnel row between Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira in 2005, revealing how 'clever' Gary Neville was in the dressing room before kick-off.

Reigning champions Arsenal and serial Premier League winners Manchester United met at Highbury in February 2005, and the fierce clash was preceded by a tempestuous bust-up between the two former captains.

The incident was sparked by Vieira picking a fight with Keane's team-mate Neville, who told the Manchester United dressing room before kick-off about his altercation with the Arsenal midfielder.
