That’s a bloody good week, scores in the cup final, takes a bird out, gets a massage then has 8 pints with the lads and goes and gets Motm and wins the double. What a life
Man u were way more professional. Parlour would have been world class under fergie. He had a good week but was always 4th or 5th in the pecking order behind Edu, Gilberto Silva, Wiltord etc
True its just 11 human cyborg hybrids now. Players like Jay Jay, Kanu, Ronaldinho, Zola, wouldn't even get a game. The game is all ruthless efficiency now and no artistry and flair. The moment Neymar got booked for doing a rainbow flick over an opponents head I knew the best days were gone. You have to watch obscure league like Japan, Brazil etc to see true football.
@@irieite9666 i think there is truth in what you’re saying. I dont think there’s a place for maverick footballers any more - truly unpredictable bad boy geniuses. But that is because the game is so fast and physical that that type of player would have no time on the ball and just couldn’t pull off the same stuff, or lead that bad boy lifestyle off the pitch. Is the game better for it? Not sure. From a pure sports/human performance perspective, the game is far far superior. But I agree that we’ve lost that spontaneity, drama and heroism.
@@irieite9666Yeah very true and I really hate it. There are no characters anymore. Just robot players who are excellent technically, savvy with the media and have been trained that way since around 9 years old.
Ray 'you know what it's like' Parlour
Hearing Ray talking about Sambuca and Tequila Slammers really adds a human element to these guys. Could've been any of us.

@@solshields parlour played 333 times in the premiership for arsenal. the most out of any arsenal player ever. top player
@@solshieldsNot true that. Ray was very important for both double winning sides
absolute legend
"It's only Ray Parlour" - Tim Lovejoy
Drinking drinking drinking that’s all they did and still balled!
Football gets in the way of the drink. Parlour would be no good at A.A. meetings 🥳😎🤣
"I'll have one pint with ya and I'm going!"
In the modern game, players like RP wouldn’t even get through the front gates of the training ground.

Different Gravy..the Romford Pele.
So in the end he s the entire week drunk...thats it!!!
Oooo Ahhhh Ray Parlour
Functioning Alcoholic?
Bet he couldn't put a fruit pastel in his mouth without chewing it.
What a lovely date that must have been - could barely stand.
She was dating a Premier League footballer and FA Cup winner, I really doubt she gave a sh*t
funny....its funnier that it wasnt a funny story......wtf....
He sounds like an alchi.
average footballer blessed he found himself in a good side
Swap booze for any illegal drug ,what does he sound?🤔
Sounds like an alcoholic if he can't go five days wirhout drinking a skin full.
Are these stories supposed to be funny.
I gave up listening half way through. Boring man is Parlour, thick too.
Your name is boring.
@@highstakes1235 Bugger off Ray.
Has he come out as an alcoholic yet? All of his stories seem to revolve around alcohol.
I don't think he had 8 pints tho
