Summary

Here’s another chance to hear my interview with Gordon Strachan from season one.

The then Scotland manager (and forever Aberdeen legend) explained how ours is a golden age of football and claimed that Andres Iniesta was the pick of an unsurpassed generation of players. There’s also great content on being part of the undercelebrated 1992 Leeds United team that won the last First Division title before the Premier League era began.
