  • This week Jeff sits down with Brighton’s James Milner again, this time to discuss the top five games from his football career.
    What was going through his mind during Liverpool’s epic 4-0 Champions League win over Barcelona? Which manager left him out of vital Premier League matches because of superstition? And how did it feel to be subbed off after just 25 minutes at the World Cup?
    He also talks about why the senior England squad is on another level, how members of his local cricket club protected him when he broke into the Leeds team at 16 and which of his team-mates used to trick him into making a cuppa.
    Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket production with BBC Studios.

    Broken down into two individual episodes with each guest, Football’s Greatest will take you inside the dressing rooms of some of the best soccer teams the world has ever seen. You will hear stories that surprise you, that make you laugh out loud and that you will be thinking of and telling people about for days after.

    I remember when milner was at leeds you could see he would be a class player even back then,its amazing how long hes been playing in the Premier league,a proper solid underated baller who can play in multiple different positions a proper jack,he deserved way more england games aswell and thats coming from a Gunner.Anyway glad this has popped up in my algorithms so youve copped another sub looking forward to more content.

    He's at 633 PL apperances atm overcoming Ryan Giggs. If he stays at Brighton for the next season, he'll surely overtake Gareth Barry's 652.

    the Barca game definitely the best European night game ever at Anfield…. 2nd is vs Olympiacos then Chelsea 2004/05

  • @flankspeed
    @flankspeed Před 2 měsíci +1

    That 4-0 against Barca
    I watch it probably once a month.
    Colossal game. Even saw Wenger in the build-up saying, "Don't count them out: because of Anfield."
    And yeah, maybe he's just being the pundit and trying to stoke hype, but I don't think that was ever his style beforehand. Arsenal let him go too early.

    @Wiiggz Před 4 měsíci +3

    He won’t say it because it’s against a former team but the 3-0 win at anfield against man city in the UCL has to be in there. I was there and the atmosphere was an absolute cauldron for hours before, during and after the game. It was better atmosphere wise than the Barcelona game and I was there for both!

      Don't think they'd have thought they would lose Milly, Hendo and Fabinho in one window 🤯

      i prefer him to retire at his boyhood club Leeds..n then come back to Liverpool at some point in time as backroom staff or something..

    61 games for England but can you remember him ever being the best player in the team for any one of those games? He was average and should have been nowhere near the England team. We have a habit of giving average players like Milner and Henderson far too many caps instead of playing youngsters
