In the second part of our exclusive interview with football icon Matt Le Tissier, we delve into a myriad of captivating topics. Matt shares his thoughts on an all-time XI he's played against, discusses the controversy surrounding Alan Shearer's “not world class” label, and reflects on some of the best performances of his career. The panel reacts to his selections and stories, including memorable training ground moments and anecdotes about fellow players and managers like Glenn Hoddle and Chris Nicholl. We explore his impeccable penalty record, his near-chairman role at Southampton, and his experiences with the Saints Academy. Matt also opens up about his time as a club ambassador, his involvement with the People's Health Alliance, and his current endeavours, including a player agency business with Franny Benali. Tune in for a mix of serious discussions and light-hearted quick-fire questions to wrap up the session.
