Bryan Robson vs Souness | vs Liverpool 1983 Community Shield (2 Goals | All Touches & Actions) 

Can’t believe that somebody said robson was overrated never heard that before, juventus wanted to pay a small fortune for him back in the day and the united fans stopped it with a protest over a million signatures I don’t think Liverpool fans did the same for any player

To this day, my United hero!

who said that talking shit Bryan robson was over rated really he still the best midfielder ever and still to this day no one better than robbo proper legend

That ball @0.40 was no mistake, sublime pass

Absolutely 💯 Captain Marvel

I had the pleasure of seeing Bobby Charlton. Good as he was, different kind of player, but Bryan Robson was no Bobby Charlton!!!

Yep spotted it straight away& KD stood up like a Man! Today the Toughest players they have are in a Fantasy League team or on XBOX!

You are welcome! It's hard to find games from the early 80s unfortunately. Apart from this encounter, I couldn't really find any other full games featuring both Souness and Robson. Nonetheless, even a friendly between United and Liverpool is going to be one that's fiercely contested!

Any match between United and scouse, is a proper game!

ROBSON WAS NO SAINT EITHER. THE MUCK AINT ALL ON SOUNESS'S WHEELS.

Thing is, every team back then had a souness or Tommy smith type player . An ‘enforcer’ so to speak

You are welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!

@Oneman Oneman not exactly what I had imagined but thanks

@Oneman Oneman that kit always conjures images of beating Liverpool, going great until xmas then robbo gets injured for England and united finish 4th

I have that exact shirt

The away shirt from 75-80 was a classic. This is a nice kit too though

Underrated? By who?

@@paulcookies by manutd fans and everyone in england most of the time he's left of the conversation of top 10 manutd players of all time and even england nobody mention his name

@@leddidi Robson was the most over rated player I ever seen in the 80s. The combination of Robson & Wilkins were always anonymous when playing against Reid & Bracewell. England were going no where in the 86 world cup until Robson got injured and Wilkins got sent off. Reid and Steven came in and we nearly won the world cup

@@peterbell2793 Maradona would never have scored if robbo was fully fit in 86. He would have cleared the 1st not laid it on like hodge did. And robbo would have hammered him for the second not out paced like reid was. I don't support utd but don't mention reid or anyone else in the same breath as bryan robson. Barcelona was evidence of that Maradona did nothing robbo did him and scored twice. But I respect your opinion I just don't agree.

Robson in my opinion was world class dont recall him ever being underrated

You are right, it is a Robson compilation video but I sometimes include the vs tag if the context or individual battles/rivalries warrants it. Both were magnificent midfielders and amongst the best in their trade. Having them both on the same side would have been akin to cheating! Regarding Robson wanting to go to Liverpool over United, I could be wrong but I think he wanted to move to United. Ron Atkinson - "Soon as I took the job, I wanted Robson. When I was at Albion he’d put in a transfer request, slipped a letter in my office when he’d come back from being away with England. So I called him in and he said, “Well man United are after me.” My reply to him was ‘I tell you now for nothing, the only way you’ll go to Man United is if I go there before you!’ The day I got the United job Robbo was out in Switzerland with the England team, and he’s on the ‘phone: “Gaffer, remember what you said?” Talk about managers tapping players up - he was tapping me!” You can read more about it on this thread that I made on an United forum. www.redcafe.net/threads/classic-players-bryan-robson-the-greatest-british-midfielder-ever.431217/ You can also check out the pair of Souness compilations that I'd made before if it interests you too. Graeme Souness - Champagne Charlie: ru-vid.com/group/PL9n84njYMCXTeMSncHMElToH9bVbjCIJ8 Cheers!

I have read Robson’s autobiography entitled Robbo… he states the fact that he at the time preferred Liverpool. His new film also entitled Robbo is basically his autobiography but, the point of wanting to join Liverpool isn’t mentioned

Interesting, will have to check that out again as it's been some time. Thanks for pointing it out!

@@footballsgreatest2645 please do and thanks for your replies

You are welcome.

Shocking comments from him, rather disappointing, putting rivalry and feuds aside.

@@footballsgreatest2645 i swear. I think he is spot on sometimes. But this was an absolute madness. Generally, dont speak about something you have no idea about..

If Pogba done his job properly Souness wouldn't have had to cover for him and haul Robson down

Please tell me your joking?

Tough to say, Souness was more aggressive whilst Robson was more dynamic but equally imposing physically. Nothing much between the two of them in the physicality stakes imo, although they both had different approaches to the game.

I always felt Souness would bully Wilkins when Robson was out injured; with him playing, Utd usually beat Liverpool. But there was a bit of rock, paper, scissors about it as Robson never seemed to do very well against Peter Reid.

@@philipjones3517 Reid and Bracewell at Everton made Robson & Wilkins look poor. Never forget the 86 world cup, we were on the verge of going out, then Robson did his Shoulder, Wilkins got sent off and the Everton boys of Reid, Bracewell and Steven came in and we nearly won it but for the hand of god

@@peterbell2793 Yep, Bracewell was superb in that world cup.

@@philipjones3517 Usually Beat Liverpool? Most games were draws and your cup final for a good 25 year period when Liverpool dominated lmao

You're either deluded or was born to late

@@genghiskhanjunior9581 you obviously have no clue about English Football, so pipe down.

@@tonydew440 lol when were you born? Definitely not before 86/7??

Souness was definitely better than Robson. Robson was a tad rash.

Stop drinking you’re drunk 😳

Fair enough, I disagree on Robson being overrated, but everyone is entitled to their opinion of course. Both Robson and Souness were brilliant footballers and amongst the greatest British midfielders ever. The United fans and the English are naturally going to root for Robson and the Scots and the Liverpool fans for Souness.

RUBBISH!

@@thefullenergychannel2879 Your right your respect for others opinion rubbish

@@footballsgreatest2645 your Right we all have our own opinions. Bryan looked alot better than what he was for quite often in a mu shirt or England shirt he was the only that give it everything consistently. That's why I say that. You know media make more of English players.

@@footballsgreatest2645 I'm from NI it for example STUART DALLAS SCORED TWO LOVELY GOALS AT ETHIAD LEEDS WON 1- 2 IF IT HAD BEEN ROBSON ROONEY OR ENGLISH PLAYER IT WOULDVE SPIRALLED BEYOND BUT DALLAS IS FROM NI. IM A FULL ON LFC FAN.

Lol souness was way tougher than robson. Where's robsons european cup

@@CoolDude-jp1kj souness had a miles better team around him to be fair

@@diarmuidkelleher5868 Yes and Souness made that team better. He was a far better player and captain.

@@King-cb5kl ha ha ha

@@CoolDude-jp1kj ha ha ha

I'm guessing you're a Scottish Liverpool fan

@@genghiskhanjunior9581 wrong on one account ain’t no Liverpool fan that’s for sure I just know football next they’ll be telling us Keegan was better than Dalglish or Sancho is better than Best 😂 Robson was a decent player but I’d have keane or Souness and probably a few others before him every time

@@TheNewton47 Maybe I'm a little biased being English and a United fan lol plus my first ever game at OT was a midweek FA Cup replay under the lights v QPR and Robson scored a belter. For me Robsons lack of trophies in comparison to Souness, Keane etc goes against him but both these players had far superior players alongside them compared to Robson. Injuries also hampered Robson a fair bit but his Captain Marvel tag was certainly earned and warranted.

@@genghiskhanjunior9581 Lol Souness was better. End of

@@TheNewton47 Proves you know nothing about football
