"Carbone came to me courtesy of Roy Hodgson at Inter. He had size six boots, tiny feet, but superb control. On occasions he didn't look interested, and because he was a lonely boy in Sheffield I thought, Maybe if I sign another Italian, he'll have a friend over here. But it worked against us in the end because they were together and it became a slightly fractured dressing room."
"I'd been to watch Di Canio at Celtic. I got a taxi to the hotel and the taxi driver said, 'What are you doing here today?' I said, 'I've only come to watch the game.' He said, 'Don't kid me - you've come to watch Di Canio. We've only got one player.' I got a taxi to the ground and this taxi driver said, 'You've messed up today because the best player isn't playing.'"
