Summary
Hola Big Interview listeners!
When I sat down to chat with Alan Smith during the launch of his autobiography Heads Up we talked Arsenal icons, a title win and triumph in a European Cup final. It was so good that I have split the whole interview into two parts.
So, in Part One, you will learn about George Graham, a title-winning coach at Arsenal and a man feared by many of his players. You'll hear about his laborious training methods and hair-raising team talks.
And Alan also relives his goal at Anfield which helped steal the league title away from a formidable Liverpool side in 1989. It is a game which he describes as the most iconic in English football history.
