Paddy McGuinness

It does seem to come a little bit out of the blue, doesn't it?

I know there were...

I don't think there's been that many rumours about it, really, from the end of the series.

It took a little bit of time.

I wonder, yeah, I think Jason would probably answer this, whether the availability of a Riola coming, being touted around a lot of clubs, because Richard Hughes, who was at Bournemouth, who's now at Liverpool, he also brought him into Bournemouth.

So you wonder, do you think, right, we can't afford to miss him?

Whether they were in for Alonso, I don't know.

I think he likes to play that style.

You watch his Bournemouth team this year, they were exciting, they were on the front four all the time.

I think the question for him now, can he do that three times a week?

I think that'd be a big problem.

It'd be a problem for the manager.

Yeah.

If Stephen's there waiting.

They wouldn't have had an influence on Liverpool.

No chance.

Making that decision to sack him.

They wouldn't have gone off that.

No.

No.
