In a Liverpool FC special, Phil & Gary are joined by Millsy to speak to Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher. Jamie isn't afraid to talk about how he grew up an Evertonian, and tells Millsy how he was present at the 1985 European Cup Winners Cup Semi Final against Bayern Munich, and discusses in detail how the love for Everton wasn't replaced instantly, but rather gradually as his heart moved permanently to the Spion Kop. Phil and Gary then ask all the questions a Liverpool supporter wants to hear, and get the answers in depth as Jamie talks the timeline of his Liverpool career, from his debut goal in 1997 at the Kop end, to his decision to walk away from the club he loved, and if he feel's his presence would have made a difference in the subsequent 13-14 season. Everything in-between is covered in detail, from Robbie Fowler's exit and the rumored bust up with Phil Thompson, Gerard Houllier, Rafael Benitez, Michael Owen's departure and just how Steven Gerrard's rumored move to Chelsea affected his wedding day! We, of course chat about 2005, covering Chelsea and AC Milan in great detail before we talk 'The Office' and Jamie's love for the show, and how he will always try to get an Office quote in during Sky Sports Monday Night Football. The latter part of Jamie's Liverpool career covers his reaction to Fernando Torres leaving, how it felt on the inside as well as the 2012 semi final victory over Everton, the Suarez t shirts, Brendan Rodgers, his pride at winning a trophy under 'King' Kenny Dalglish and his toughest Merseyside derby opponents. This is a must listen for not only any red, but football fan in general as a true legend of the game, Liverpool FC and our city, gives us over 2 hours of honest opinion on the club, and game he loves. +
