Gordon Strachan talking about a young Wayne Rooney.
"It's an incredible rise to stardom, at 17 you're more likely to get a call from Michael Jackson than Sven Goran Eriksson".

"It's always great fun getting attacked, one of the highlights of my career. He got fined £100 for that, but they had a whip round in the pub and he got £200".
