What insights does Harry Kewell share about his break from football?
Welcome to the Goals on Sunday podcast.
Harry Kuehl is joining us on the sofa this week and we will talk to Harry about his Premier League and international career.
As well as his foray into the Football League management. And as ever, we cover all the major talking points from an eventful weekend in the Premier League.
And it has been an eventful weekend. Oh, you're not wrong. VR!
What's going on?
I don't know.
Good morning, everybody.
Good morning. Welcome to Goals on Sunday.
How are you?
I am good, Cammy. A bit stiff from the dancing and training this week.
How has Harry Kewell's family life changed after stepping back from football?
Yeah, working hard this week. Come on, then. Who are you dancing with?
I can't tell him. I can't tell him. Come on. No, I've got to keep it a secret until next week. Oh, dear. I can't. Spoilers.
I was going straight down the bookies as well.
Well, I'm stiff sitting on this sofa today. I am stiff. But look, you had a great week last week. What have you been up to?
What does Harry Kewell think about watching football as a manager versus a player?
I had a good week this week as well. I was doing a Christmas show in BBC Scotland on Friday night.
Christmas already? Yeah.
Yeah, that's how long in advance you do Christmas shows, yeah.
I can't tell you what it is, though. OK.
Once again, you'll see me all over Christmas. Oh, no.
Joining us on the sofa, a man who has won both the Champions League and FA Cup. Yes, Cami, I know you're looking at me like that. And was known for scoring some sublime goals for his clubs, including Liverpool and Leeds.
G'day, mate. Or is it Mark Hockney these days?
Probably more northern now.
What challenges did Harry Kewell face during his management career?
But every time I speak, everyone can really pick out the Australian accent straight away now. So I feel like I'm going more Australian. I don't know. What do you hear? I don't know.
When I'm in America, everyone says, are you Australian? So I've got no idea.
I'll just keep it straight and I'm going to keep my East London accent. So out and out Cockney. But Harry, thanks for joining us today. What have you been up to recently?
Nothing really, just kind of chilling out, taking a little bit of time out from football and hanging out with the family, which I haven't had a lot of time to do, especially with my career and then going from football straight into management. So kind of just taking a back seat and relaxing and enjoy being a father, but it also gives me an opportunity to just go out and watch football at a bit more of a relaxing kind of position.
Are you the taxi now, or you just drive the kids here and there and everywhere?
Dad's Uber, I'm called.
How does Harry Kewell reflect on his time at Leeds United?
Dad's Uber. Which, like I said, I actually enjoy it. I'm going from one place to another place, picking other people up here, there and everywhere. I think I might start charging, actually.
That's what Uber drivers do.
You said about you do go and watch a lot of football now, but are you able to just watch it and enjoy, or are you still that player, that manager that's totally analysing everything all the time?
No, definitely analysing. I literally switch off from where the ball is. I'm looking at what kind of teams are playing, what their formation is, what their structure is, how they're trying to beat the opponent. So it's not me just sitting there enjoying it. I'm just literally going there trying to just pick little holes and what would I do in that situation, that kind of thing.
That's what happens when you become a manager or a coach or whatever. You can't go to a game and just sit and watch the ball and watch the goals and all that. You're watching the team, you're watching the formation, you're watching everything because your education will never be complete in football. That's one thing for sure.
What were the highlights of Harry Kewell's career at Liverpool?
No, and I don't think you can. I think the day you stop learning is the day that you give up. I think you can always learn, I think there's always things out there you can learn. I even sometimes watch the manager itself, how he's reacting into certain situations, because I'm quite hot-headed, you know, when I'm on the touchline. So it's nice to see in situations where I think, how do they react? And they're all little tips you can learn.
So even like watching and how you're just saying, I'm hot-headed and I'm this, do you feel like you're ready to get back into it now?
