Ahead of Manchester United's visit to the Emirates Stadium to take on Arsenal, former Gunners captain Patrick Vieira has spoken of how he relished the rivalry between the two sides.
Vieira had infamous bust-ups with numerous members of the United line-up, including a pre-match clash in the tunnel with Roy Keane over his treatment of Gary Neville.
Speaking to the Sun, Vieira lamented: "When I was at Arsenal, Manchester [United] was the best team in the country, because they were winning the League in the last four or five years.
"There was a big rivalry between the two clubs and every single game that I played against Manchester has been tough, has been difficult.
"There was a lot of tension, a lot of arguments, battles. But it was fantastic. I loved it a lot," he said.
"Of course, talking about tension, there was some on the pitch, some outside the pitch and that makes me laugh now."
