So they kind of, like, half-eyed field, threw me under the bus, but I never said anything.
Yeah.
It does help, doesn't it?
Well, yeah, because, of course, but I think more importantly, they would have, forget about me scoring that goal then, but if they watch Watford every week and they see the way we're playing, how is John Barnes going to fit in Liverpool?
All we do is hit long balls, you know, crossover runs into the channel, Barnes gets the ball, he crosses it, although scored against Liverpool.
But they looked at me, not just against Liverpool, to say, because sometimes I played up front, sometimes I played in midfield.
I remember we're playing, who was it against?
And he's actually scored.
Good attacking midfield player.
He said to me, Graham Taylor said to me, I'm going to play in midfield.
This game, pick the team.
Pick the team.
Who is it against?
And he goes, you're playing in midfield.
And I want you to man mark.
Of course, he scored a goal with one nil.
That's the only kick he got.
But he's a great attacking midfield player.
And Graham Taylor would say that sometimes.
You've got to go and play in midfield as a defensive midfield player.
