Summary
FROM THE VAULT: In this clip, former Chelsea, Manchester City and England left-back Wayne Bridge joins the lads to reveal some of the most unbelievable stories from his career.
Bridge opens up on the horrific leg break that sidelined him, the superstitions he swore by, and the surreal moment Roman Abramovich flew him home on a private jet.
He also shares a chaotic behind-the-scenes story from his time at Man City, admitting he once drank the minibar dry the night before a game—only to be unexpectedly called into action.
From dressing room banter to fines, injuries, and wild off-pitch moments, this is a brutally honest look at life as a Premier League footballer.
