Good on you Tosh. Couldn’t have been easy arguing with a legend . Greats story
Remember being at this match. We went back the next night. He was brilliant, So lucky to have seen this team xx
I was 9 when Toshack left Cardiff to join Liverpool. I remember my old man being pissed off, he used to take me to all Cardiff home games.
Fascinating history. What a legend.
Toshack and Keegan are two of the most underrated forward combinations we've ever had at Liverpool. Neither seem to get the recognition from fans they deserve. Different styles, but easily as influential and as good as Salah and Mane.
UNDERRATED? BY WHO???
@@TheRealist2022 That'll be The Premier League and Sky.
Didn't you know that football only began in 1992?
Nobody underrates Toshack and Keegan, they are still a famous partnership fifty years later!
@@richshaw6889 lolol....absolutely right!
@@robertboyle2573 exactly.
As a British soldier serving in Germany at the time I was live at the second leg in MGLB when Liverpool had some stern defending to do, especially after Heynkes scored a tremendous second goal with a wonderful bending drive. Liverpool had to hang on for about half an hour but at the end we all climbed over the fence and ran onto the pitch to congratulate the Liverpool team. It seems John's performance in the first leg made all the difference.
Well done Shanks for giving it some thought and changing his decision and good on you John for standing up and standing your ground. You were quite obviously right
Great memories of watching the big man from the kop as a teenager
Learned alot about psychology did Toshack of the master SHANKS ! Great story though !
Was at both games. Great story
Interesting story about the match being abandoned. Didn’t know that. Before me time but I loved these players from the 70’s. Keegan and Toshack were great Liverpool players. Bob Paisley was astute and sounded like he could read the opposition and tell Shankly how to set up the team in big matches.
I think that Paisley was the main reason for success even during the Shankly years. He wasn't the public face though because he was a very modest man.
Absolutely agree with you. Paisley was a genius
Quality. I didn't know this one. Thank you for posting.
great player he was
Great insight John, brilliant thank you.
Y n w a thanks tosh
Something just doesn't smell right about that story. The way it's told reeks of B/S. Imagine any young lad going into Shanks office and telling the great man that he was the luckiest manager alive? Na, not a chance in hell!!!!!
I'd tend to agree. Doesn't quite add up the way he slightly changes the story halfway through. 🤔
We'll never know will we ?
Terrific story, all the arguing done behind closed doors like it should be. I'm sure what makes a great manager is no doubt to listen, take on born valid comments and don't be so stubborn as to not to change your mind if you've got it wrong. Sounds like Shanks put his ego to one side and made the right call.
Great story. I know of the story but not John Toshaks side of it
Great player and a lovely man but I can’t help but think what might have been had Shanks signed Worthington as he so nearly did.
Tosh the legend
Liverpool great
Stevie Heighway's always running, John Toshack is always scoring, when you hear the Kopite's roaring, TOSHACK is our king.
Tosh was our KING first, butt ! Cardiff City. Nice mention for the great Jimmy Scoular.
I rember that song y n w a
Just a pity he couldn't leave Stevies wife alone
Absolute yard dog
@@andymeighan8160 Deluded Knobhead.
That story tells you more about Shankly's greatness than Toshack's nerve. It shows you that Shankly, unlike many, many managers, was astute enough to make a selection change and not let ego cloud his judgement. What an absolute legend. Many managers would have left Toshack out of the team for weeks for that outburst, but not Shankly.
It was probably Shank's plan all along, Lol.
Yeah, right. Tosh has never been slow in blowing his own trumpet. This sounds like wishful thinking.
Toshack-Keegan 1-0.
The good old days, when men were men.
Liverpool the best city in the world
Wrong, it’s worst place to live.
@@swaldron5558Never been here so don't talk
If he spoke to shankly like that he would have never played again ...Nice story but exaggerated
Totally agree mate. He's either embellished it or completely made it up. Either way he's full of it!!!!!! 👍
And how would you know that.
@@andymeighan8160 For me it was just listening to the video. Toshack pauses a lot, thinks a lot and the story just doesn't flow as it does when one is recounting an ACTUAL event. Add to that the fact that Shanks was a huge dominating figure @ Liverpool in those days and it simply doesn't add up imo 👍 Be interesting to hear Peter's opinion!
@@andymeighan8160
And why would you question in such a way?
Don’t be so rude.
Thing is... He was there and you wasn't. So I think I'll take his side here. He actually worked with Bill on a daily basis whereas you've believed the public image of Shankly and that's enough for you to call a legend a liar.
