They're going to say you're not great.
And what are you?
So...
I would hate to have gone to Liverpool at 17 years old.
Because at 17, you go in the sea.
If you go to Man United, you know, with Paul McGrath and all this culture, you would have seen that as a youngster.
And if it wasn't for Fergie, who would have kept you, you know, make sure, because you'd have been out with Robbo and out with, you know, Paul McGrath and Norman White.
It's a big drinking culture, as it was in all clubs, apart from Watford, it wasn't like that.
And it's hard for a 17-year-old with that peer pressure.
No, because back then, as well, you see, I'm at Watford and as far as I was concerned, we finished second in the league, got to the quarter-final UEFA Cup.
Watford are going to win the league.
We're going to be great.
I'm going to be here forever.
I love it.
Graham Taylor is wise enough to understand this is just a period of time in Watford's history where this is going to happen.
Then, when time comes, he said to me, you are going.
I never wanted to go.
He said to me, Luther went to AC Milan, Nigel Cannon went to Aston Villa, so the team was kind of breaking up.
And he said to me, you're going to go to Liverpool.
I never asked him.
