I still think he’s a decent pundit and says some interesting stuff- intellect is one attribute, but it’s no more important than other skills in the grand scheme of things. And he was a very good footballer with a great brain on the pitch and excellent leadership qualities, NQAT. I think sometimes people and the media ask too much of players like him after retirement, and sometimes the tv stations give these guys a bit too much rope.
Anyway, back to this Chinese restaurant. What was he waiting for- a table?
