He won seven Premier League titles, four FA Cups and the Champions League during his time at Old Trafford, making him the joint most successful Irish player in history.

Despite winning several accolades - including the Treble in 1999 - with the help of Ferguson, the ex-midfielder claims Pep Guardiola is the better manager of the two.

In the latest episode of the podcast, Keane joined Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and Ian Wright in debating who the greatest Premier League manager of all time is.

The former Ireland international said: "I like Pep, but if I don't pick Ferguson people think it's personal."

Wright then chimed in to ask: "Is it personal?"

To which the United legend responded: "Everything is personal, Ian."

Keane continued: "I look at circumstances. [Arsene] Wenger at the time, maybe he didn't win this but what he did for the club like building the new stadium, the recruitment side of it, style of football.

"United weren't doing all that stuff with sports science.

"[Jurgen] Klopp, with his circumstances and the way he lifted the club.

"[Jose] Mourinho, he's in the top five. How long have we got?"

Keane was then asked to give a definitive answer on who he believes to be the best Premier League manager of all time.

After narrowing it down to Guardiola and Sir Alex, he said: "It's a toss of a coin."

And after a long pause, he went on to conclude: "I'll go with Pep."

Wright was left stunned, but Keane insisted that his time at Man Utd with Ferguson was "fantastic".

Ferguson left Man Utd in 2013 and retired with 13 Premier League titles, two Champions League titles, five FA Cups and four League Cups.

Meanwhile, Guardiola has already won six Prem titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups and four League Cups with Manchester City.
