Manchester United Legend Roy Keane Reckons Guardiola Is The Special One Not Mourinho

Manchester United legend Roy Keane's assessment of both Pep Guardiola and Jose Mourinho won't go down well with the "Special One."

The Irishman was bullish as ever after assessing Manchester City's performance last night admitting Mourinho's rival is indeed his self-proclaimed moniker.

City opened their Champions League account in style by thrashing Borussia Mönchengladbach 4-0, not to mention Guardiola getting the better of his Portuguese counterpart by claiming victory in the Manchester derby.

And the Spaniard has clearly impressed Keane; "He said he's a challenging coach - doesn't look like he messes about. I wouldn't like to mess with him. Two coaches in Manchester. Mourinho reckons he's the Special One, to me this guy is."

While adding; "We've seen City have good starts before and they take their foot off the gas a little bit, but I don't think it will happen under this guy." He told ITV.

The Catalan coach has a 100% record having won their first four league games as they sit top of the league as well as getting their European excursions off to a good start.

Meanwhile, Jose and Co. suffered another defeat this time on their own European quest away to Dutch side Feyenoord.
