Jamie Carragher

They weren't just defenders, they were great players.

Desai especially.

One of the top defenders in the world at the moment, at that time, possibly was.

I think playing with Anelka, I think we associate him when you watch him play, you know, pace as we saw there, the score and goals.

But he was a much better footballer than I think people give him credit for.

And I think even abroad, then they come back to Bolton, then had a great sort of almost end to his season or Premier League career at Chelsea.

So there was still loads left in the tank when we had him in 2002.

And I think that is a big regret from players who played at that time that we didn't actually sign him permanently.

I think the FA Cup final for me in 2001 was certainly the biggest thing I'd done at a young age, really.

So I've kept over that one.

I'm not sure where the UEFA Cup and Worthington Cup it was then from that season are.

So I'm sure someone's got older than somewhere.

But we wore the yellow kit in the car of 2001.

It was probably a start of a great sort of few years that we had a car of.

Yeah, I mean, at that time, we felt we were close to challenging Manchester United along with Arsenal, who just dropped off from winning the titles.

And I think we found out that day there was still a gulf between ourselves and Arsenal.

They were outstanding on the day, but

This team here, we did have something special.

I think Didi mentioned it before.

We weren't the greatest of teams.
