    I have to say, as a long time Leeds fan, watching Rio at Leeds was amazing. Absolute rolls royce of a player. Great mentality, great captain and just ozzed class. He was so good to watch, carried the ball well and had a goal in him. Not one of us liked losing players to man utd, but i've nothing but respect for him. Top player

      He was much better at Leeds than he was at Man U. Very lucky Vidic and Evra came and won him some titles at Man U. Him, Brown, Blanc, Silvertre, the Nevilles all awful in those barren years after Irwin and Stam left. O'Shea the only decent one. Those years at Leeds were the only time in his career where he wouldn't have those lapses in concentration and hand teams goals. If he played like he did at Leeds for the rest of his career I would probably put him above Maldini as the best cb of all time, apart from that one mistake v Brazil he was brilliant at world cup 2002 too

    Brilliant interview here. As a West Ham fan it absolutely answers all the questions I have had about Frank Lampards awful treatment. I always wondered why the derogatory remarks about him seemed to be so loud. It was coming from other more senior players. Frank was world class. They had no class. I really wish Rio would start mentioning names, because I would make sure I never uttered their name in the same sentence as West Ham ever again

      What it was, was bad coaching. They all blame Sven but he actually took it up a level. Keegan and Hoddle trird to rely on the old guard. While Sven actually played the best 11. Coaching in England was awful before they got spanked by Germany in 2010 and they said okay we need to copy Germany and Spain. Back in the day England fought they could just win through grit. Players like Phil Foden and Sterling would have been told to play two touch or they would have been benched like Joe Cole and any inventive player before Rooney was. It was all get it up to Shearer or Heskey up front get it out to Beckham and everyone get in the box LOL
