Classic Big Interview: Robert Snodgrass Jan 10, 2023

Show notes

Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Robert Snodgrass from season five.

The irrepressible winger – now of Hearts – plied his trade at West Ham back then, and we hear how a tough Glasgow upbringing grounded him for when his big chances came at Livingston and then Leeds. Robert dips into his trove of masterly prank phone calls, and there’s an amazing soliloquy on how to make the absolute best of yourself as a footballer and a man.

Numero Uno: Luca Vialli, An Appreciation Jan 06, 2023

Show notes

Today - January 6, 2023 - saw the sad news of Gianluca Vialli's passing. Luca was an incredible guy who I first met in 1995 and welcomed as a guest on The Big Interview in 2016. We kept in touch throughout the years and this is my tribute to a very special man.

**REPOST** Classic Big Interview: Luca Vialli Jan 06, 2023

Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Gianluca Vialli from season two.

Gianluca was my favourite footballer during the 1990s, and I had the honour of getting to know him at his peak. He graced Serie A with his goals during a golden age of Italian club football, winning the league and getting to three European finals with Vujadin Boskov’s Sampdoria – an unfancied club who caught the imagination with their togetherness and sheer will to will. At Juventus, Luca played amid a mouth-watering array of talent, as part of the Turin side’s Tridente attack, culminating in a Champions League win on his final game. We hear about how coach Marcello Lippi’s pressing, offensive style at Juve broke the mould of the Italian approach. Gianluca also gives incredible insights into his time at Chelsea – falling out of favour with Ruud Gullit, replacing Gullit as boss, and then his shock and anger at his own unmerited sacking. My friends, it’s simply one of the best Big Interviews ever.
