Former players and managers - general discussion

For me it’s a private matter between him and his wife. My reasons for wanting him to not be an ambassador are football related not personal life related.

I agree, it is between him and his wife, that’s what I meant about facing the consequences. I’m not the least bit interested in his sex life, that’s his business.

Don’t want to be a party pooper here…
But that definitely looks like a crocodile to me…
Given that there are no Alligators in Australia and that is Steve Irwin… he either left Australia to film the clip, or they flew in an Alligator from elsewhere for a star appearance! :joy:

Definitely a croc. Alligators’ bottom teeth aren’t visible when their mouth is closed.

Based on his appearance on Carra’s podcast that sounds very believable. He is such a David Brent. Basically the whle conversation was him rejecting his squeaky clean image with allusions to him being a wild child who loved a pint. It was so fucking weird.

Gators have better dentists.

Apparently, none of the Scottish squad speak to Billy Gilmour, he trains and eats alone.

Daniel Sturridge on Jurgen Klopp: "Jurgen was a great manager, he’s different to all the others, and I didn’t play as much under him, but I learnt a lot and we had a very good relationship, especially towards the end.

“That last season the relationship I had with Jurgen was unbelievable and I’ve got nothing but love and respect for him, not only for what he’s achieved at Liverpool but for the relationship we have today.”

They posted Torres’ goal vs Blackburn, from (I think) 08/09 on the official Insta just now. One of my favourite goals of his. Was that a Reina assist? I’m pretty sure he got the assist for a Riera goal vs Villa later in the same season, so I might be getting them muddled.

That was a long ball in the channel from Carra. :slight_smile:

Carra never played long balls, did he? :wink: :rofl:

That’s right. Xabi Carragher. Same game where Allardyce got all pissy with Rafa for being “disrespectful” after the second goal. Agger rocket for the third. I fucking loved that team.

Here’s the Reina assist for Riera I was thinking of. Around 1:40.

Was a side worthy of winning the league. I was devastated when they couldn’t quite do it with United pulling out all sorts of last minute winners with a never before or since goal poacher Macheda.

Loads of mistakes that summer. We were far too quick to push Rodriguez, Bellamy and Kuyt out of the door as well. They (and Meireles) were part of the huge upturn in form that pulled us up the league in that half season.

But I think this was in FSG springtime, when they thought football was basic and they’d be able to piss it with their stats and spreadsheets.
