John Nicholson likes Chris Sutton so he likes his book. Nobody could get near him. He loves it and simply cannot get enough of it and is quite simply one of the sharpest summarisers I’ve worked with. He found a home that appreciated his talents and played an amazing 140 games in three seasons. This time his criticism of England would come after the loss of the semi-final, identifying England’s old trouble of inability to retain the ball in midfield and ending up getting bossed.

He turned people inside out but he could pass it, he could shoot, he could take free kicks.’‘Combined outrageous skill with managing to look knackered from the warm up. Twenty minutes a day for a couple of months is all it takes for a professional to improve his weaker foot.”After playing for a few local junior clubs, he signed on at Tow Law Town from 1978 to 1980. but Falkirk!?!?!?!?! Rhian Brewster makes the list and so does Bukayo Saka. His frustrated, angry England post-World Cup exit rants have become a traditional entertaining evisceration of English footballAnd yet he had an incredible skill set. Don’t expect to see a better player in blue & white stripes in my lifetime.’‘At a time when English football was a backwater, ‘glory mullet’ Waddle dazzled us on the wing at continental powerhouse Marseille. He’s the opposite. As a broadcast colleague, he’s a proper trusted team player. Maybe next time they can go on round further. Never mind that Chris has twice come close to lifting the Trophy and scored an FA Cup Final goal. Metro Man Striker. Which is handy when they won't make any. I love his absolute incapacity to accept players not doing their best when he’s commentating. Never ever choosing to remind listeners how good a winger he really was, he’s earthy and open-minded.“As professional and enthusiastic to be at West Brom-Stoke on a cold winter’s night as he is in a sweltering World Cup cauldron angrily lamenting England’s latest World Cup exit. Sensational goal.’‘I didn’t really remember a whole lot about of him, aside from brief memories of him in Italia 90, flashes of artistry at Wednesday, the minor furore when Pleaty asked Keegan for a million pound for a 35 year old player and obviously his wonderful hair.’How lovely it was on BBC Five Live during the 2018 World Cup when he genuinely got emotional about England reaching a WC semi-final again.‘*That* dribble for Marseille against *that* Milan defence with *that* Barry Davies commentary.

He’s a fantastically big part of ‘All Played Out’ looking after Gazza with infinite patience.’‘Awesome at Wednesday. The best rants about England on 5 live ever. It’s easy to be dewy-eyed about the FA Cup and reminisce about its past glories, but it is the oldest Cup competition in the world, it’s the only domestic Trophy that connects the formation of the sport to the present day, and it’s the only competition that involves clubs across the length and breadth of the country. An unlikely dream that came true.It was a remarkable FA Cup Final. Nearly one of the best goals ever but the ball trickled just wide.’‘I seem to remember an interview after the 1990 World Cup and Gary Lineker had said that scoring a goal at the World Cup was better than sex. Time and again, he’d show the ball to the defender in a ‘go on then, here it is, here it is, come and get it’ move, before whipping it past his opponent as they dived in to try and get the ball. An unreconstructed south of the Tyne Geordie accent, he’ll say “ah cannat” for “I can’t”, which only adds to the rootsy, man-of-the-people vibe that sits well on his shoulders.And on top of all these things, to listen to him relating a story from his career, often about Gazza, is to listen to a natural raconteur.“Chris is a great man, brilliant humorous company, easygoing, unassuming. Do it for Chris.‘I’ve commentated alongside him now for more years than I care to remember and there is no-one more knowledgeable or passionate about the game. The FWA voted him Footballer of the Year.

Even though he only scored 28 across those three seasons, he was an invaluable cog in the Marseille machine.He was such a physically distinctive player.
