Hi guys. Love you both. In terms of the start of ‘96… I heard an interview with Gary Pallister who said that after he heard the news of the BIG departures that summer he immediately knocked the manager’s door and asked what are you doing? To which Ferguson replied “If I don’t make room in the first team for these young players coming through them it’s all been for nothing…” It was the culmination of Ferguson’s dream and there’s no way he could have anticipated it would have turned out as well as it did 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

As a young Boro fan at the time it was a pleasure to see you win the league at the riverside at the expense of Newcastle. We were safe in mid table with nothing to play for. And we’ve had our fair share of decent results against United at the Riverside and Old Trafford over the years too

[@FootkerSnooball]

As it turned out ManUtd could've lost that game although being in front may have made Newcastle (who led but then drew with Spurs at home) lose motivation knowing that a win for them could be in vain. A draw would've also been very hard for Newcastle to claw back the inferior GD especially against not bad team although I say that but the next time they played Spurs at StJames's they won 7-1 lol

Don’t forget Owen if you’re talking about natural finishers, along with the guys you mentioned, he’s right up there! As a Liverpool fan and loving the rivalry between us, especially during the mid-90’s, it’s great listening to these podcasts. Nice to see the respect you show to Fowler too. Yes, there was ill feeling at times between us and Utd, but, deep down both clubs have huge respect for each other due to their history.

[@robbiekop7]

Awesome player but Liverpool over-used him as a teenager and he paid for it with injuries later in his career

Owen was simply unplayable while at Liverpool and lets not forget he won the Ballon d’Or for his performances during the treble winning season. Amazing player at his peak before the hamstring problems.

[@dazediss6629]

Yep I was waiting for him to say Owen when talking about best natural finishers… was actually surprised when he mentioned Coley. He got better with age, but early on Andy Cole was a terrible finisher, but his pace usually got him twice as many chances as any other striker in the league so he scored loads. I remember England managers not playing him due to his finishing not being clinical enough.

I saw David Busst on a program not long ago and it looks like a Shark bit his leg off. Brutal. The Gibril Cisse breaks were both horrible as well. Poor bloke to do it twice.
