    It's clever that. He knew that going up against these big names you get daunted, so he broke him down to remind Keegan he's a human being.

    Those little things to calm the nerves are the things only the best man managers think are important.

    I remember Keane said about Brian Clough. "So, can you control the ball, run with the ball and defend the ball?" I said "Yes boss." He replied "ok, do that for the rest of your career and you'll do well."

    The best Clough story is when he made his goalkeeper turn out for his sons Sunday league team because he was getting cocky. The team got fined £50 for playing a ringer so Clough took it out of the keepers wages.

    My favourite quote from any football manager ever is one of Cloughs. Interviewer: "What happens if someone disagrees with you?" "Well, we sit down, we talk about it for 20 minutes and then decide I was right."

    Cmon Citeh ...

    What does one more club buying the CL matter? ...

    Days of a team of non incredibly expensive Galacticos winning it are long gone <laugh>

    Is that tonight is it? Couldn't care less tbh.

    Might pop in here later to read the tears though if they win. If they don't it'd be hilarious tbf after all the hype.

    Great if you're a City fan but can't say I've got much interest.

    I don't watch CL anyway mate. Think last final I watched was when you lot beat Spuds as I watched it with plassie scouse and spud mates.

    Saying that I don't watch football much at all now in general outside of Saints. Only about 5/6 matches this season I reckon.
