Summary
Former Manchester United man Eric Djemba-Djemba dialled in from his home in France to join the UTD Podcast this week.
The tough-tackling midfielder talked about his first days at Carrington - meeting Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville and Roy Keane.
He looked back on the moment where he and Cristiano Ronaldo came off the bench together at Old Trafford, and the words they exchanged before crossing the white line.
The Cameroonian touched on his relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson, and a very special gesture with the pen Eric used to sign his first United contract.
