Former England manager Glenn Hoddle joins Jeff Stelling to choose his greatest midfielders on the latest episode of the pod.
Which current Premier League star does he thinks still isn’t trusted by England management? Why does every team need a Declan Rice? And what was his reaction to the David Beckham documentary?
Glenn also explains why he dropped Gazza from the 1998 World Cup squad, reveals the real reason why Matt Le Tissier received fewer chances with England, recalls when a football legend tried to unsuccessfully man mark him and discusses why he thinks he was sometimes the recipient of criticism from the press.
Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket production with BBC Studios.

The show will also look at those who had great influence off the pitch too - the successful managers, the funniest team-mates and the most impressive leaders in the dressing room - and pay homage to indelible moments from the biggest competitions like the Premier League, Champions League and the World Cup.
Broken down into two individual episodes with each guest, Football’s Greatest will take you inside the dressing rooms of some of the best soccer teams the world has ever seen. You will hear stories that surprise you, that make you laugh out loud and that you will be thinking of and telling people about for days after.

I am really surprised they didnt even touch on the Eileen Drewery incident. That for me was his David Icke moment. Did he realise that so many people thought him quite mad after that. He was never trusted back into high level management afterwards and did he realise how crazy some of his comments were perceived ,particularly about deserving to face up to bad things from a previous life through reincarnation

I said we didn’t have then he handed me an envelope with 2 tickets for that nights game.. even had glen hoddle on the ticket.. we was go overjoyed what a nice touch! I went back the following week to get the ticket signed.. glen is such a lovely lad 🤍 coys ….. Shame we got beat 3-1 🤍 COYS CANT SMILE WITHOUT YOU

Hoddle used to live close to me on Rye Hill Road in Essex in the 80’s and I remember all the kids on the nearby estate would continuosly knock on his door for autographs, and he was always willing. I must have had at least six or seven autographs from him and not once was he rude. Despite not being a Spurs fan he was my football idol as a kid, absolute world class.

Still think to this day, that Beckham flick was a yellow at best, It wasn't a red card in a million years. It was silly, but a yellow at best

@GordonCaledonia Месяц назад

What did the rules state at the time? I can't recall. I watched it live and was a bit surprised at the red, but I'm pretty sure that the referee went by the book. This was 1998 not 1978 and ANY kind of contact like that resulted in a red card. England would have won the match in normal time, I reckon. Argentina were not that great post-1990, England were superior, Owen's goal is one of the greatest top-flight goals of all time, it's a glorious piece of strength and skill from such a wee young guy. Then again, it just adds to the mythology, the mad rivalry between England and Argentina, which is the REAL rivalry, not Germany, not even Scotland, I say this as a Scot. Our rivalry petered out in 2000, it's not the same now, although it will rear up big time if we meet in the Euros or World Cup. England have Ireland in the Nations League this year! Oh, baby!

@LordFlashheart.11 3 месяца назад

@kb5509 England drew with Gazza dominated the game against an excellent Italy side. He was man of the match! He was lightyears ahead of David Batty and other midfielders we had at that time. the only decent one we had was Scholes. Gazza was not past his best, hence his performance against Italy. Le Tissier wasn't given a proper shout, merson was a class player too, but again we will never know.

@kb5509 3 месяца назад

@@LordFlashheart.11 playing well in 1 game doesn't mean you're still at your best. He was terrible in his last season at Rangers, which English fans delight in calling an amateur league. His fitness was notably poor as well. He then went to Middlesbrough and was significantly worse than Merson, who did go. He also wasn't as good as Steve Mcmanaman by that point, who was also familiar with the system Glenn played from Liverpool under Roy Evans. And David Batty performs a completely different role. He was better than Gary Neville but I wouldn't play him at right back.

@danielbuxton4493 3 месяца назад

He was grossly misquoted - it was an inference brought in by the interviewer, who had heard that Hoddle believed in aspects of Buddhism and therefore the possibility of reincarnation. The snide questioner then cast a classic trope regarding reincarnation at Hoddle, (i.e. that people carry debts into this life, and are faced with challenges as a result; she then pressed the issue, raising the topic of one debt being physical disability). Hoddle, who as an honest man, replied that if she wanted to make that inference, he couldn't argue, was then vilified as someone who believed disabled people deserved to be as they were, almost as a punishment. I always thought that if we damn Hoddle, who wasn't even an avowed Buddhist or believer in reincarnation at the time, and was simply answering an abstract question as he thought it, then we'd have to damn half of Asia, which is slightly ridiculous. Even if someone does believe in reincarnation and this inference, it does not mean that they have no compassion for those affected by disability, In fact, in Hoddle's case, quite the opposite. Any serious inquiry into Hoddle as a man reveals that he is actually well-liked in football circles and has done much charity work in his time, certainly since retirement. I think he has made a mistake by never talking about it, but then again, I haven't had my career and character assassinated for making innocent comments, so maybe he's simply too wary.

Another great podcast Jeff, hoddle has always told the truth on becks and Gazza. He gave Beckham is debut and did his best to protect him, I remember Beckham warming up for games not fully focused on the tournament, he was more interested in walking around with he Rolex than he was the world cup

@monrush 3 месяца назад

You obviously know nothing about Beckham. Listen to people like Roy Keane, Ferguson, Zidane, Figo, cantona etc etc. Beckham was dedicated to the game and was always a committed trainer and professional.

Many years ago 82/83 possibly, queued for autographs outside Roker Park (Spurs won 2-0, so players had no excuse to snub us kids). Archibald and Hoddle, especially GH, got mobbed walking to the team bus. Both signed autographs. Garth Crooks just walked though us all, straight onto the bus. Absolute tosser. He was nowhere near a star as GH at the time. 20:58 I’ve never ever forgotten that. Other notable nice blokes I remember as a kid - Little Danny Thomas, Coventry possibly? Trevor Brooking - stood in the rain signing for us kids before getting in the WHU team bus.

What rubbish. Jeff clearly hasn't watched the 98 Argentina game since. The game was really low quality apart from the goals. Argentina were awful, too. In fact, Batistuta was so poor that he was subbed. Veron was poor. The Beckham red made the job far harder. But both teams were subpar.

@GordonCaledonia Месяц назад

Croatia were superior to both England and Argentina in that World Cup, but that World Cup was always going to be about Brazil and France. The Final was a disaster, of course. People thought that Ronaldo had died at first, can you imagine if we thought that about Messi in Qatar 2022? The world would have went insane. It IS insane!

@G-Man78 3 месяца назад

Arsenal fan here, so I don't have much love for mostly wimpy, ex Spurs players, but to me, Hoddle became a clown to me firstly because of his single with Chris Waddle - Diamond lights, then bringing his religion/faith into his England tenure and finally for not taking Paul Gascoigne to the world cup in 1998. Criminal 🤷🏿‍♂️

@GordonCaledonia Месяц назад

Hoddle genuinely sees himself as, "One of the Greats" of English football and he... isn't. A silky player, great passer, scored some great goals, but he was what they used to call, "a luxury player" not a pragmatic player, certainly not a good enough manager to manage England. He just always, always comes across as a twat, sick of seeing him on pundit panels. Sick of 97% of pundits, what a network of ninnies that is!

@monrush 3 месяца назад

Let me guess.. he's going to whine about being underappreciated in England... He was idolised by spurs fans and admired by fans of other teams..the whole myth about england not having flair players in the 60s' 70s and 80's is just that.

Of course it is and we have the footage and news articles of the time to prove it.
