Ex-Everton party animal Andy van der Meyde says Erik ten Hag was destined for greatness
Andy van der Meyde has claimed that he knew Erik ten Hag was destined for big things when they met at FC Twente. When playing for the Eredivisie side in 1999, the former winger spent time with Manchester United ’s incoming manager. Van der Meyde - known affectionately as 'Shandy Andy' by Everton fans for his love of partying - was just 19 years old at the time and on loan from Dutch rivals Ajax. But he saw enough of the coach to know that he would soon be in the dugout of a top club. Indeed, although Fred Rutten was then Twente’s manager, Ten Hag was already showing his worth as a leader. Van der Meyde, 42, told SunSport: “Erik is from the east of Holland — very down-to-earth. He’s kind, straight, and honest — but he can also be aggressive. All he wants is to win while making the team better. I played with him at Twente after joining on loan from Ajax when I was 19 and he was around 30. “At half-time he was always talking, saying, ‘We should do it like this, we should … [Read more...] about Ex-Everton party animal Andy van der Meyde says Erik ten Hag was destined for greatness

Wigan chief Matty Peet inspired by “enforcer” Kelvin Skerrett in bid to revive glory days
It only needs Matty Peet to think of legendary Wigan “enforcer” Kelvin Skerrett to be reminded why he wants to return Challenge Cup glory to the club. The rookie head coach grew up watching the brilliant Warriors side that won the famous trophy eight years running from 1988 to 1995. But they have not lifted it since 2013 - a relative famine - and something Wiganer Peet hopes to remedy in his first season in charge. They face holders and fierce rivals St Helens at Elland Road on Saturday for a place in the final, held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium rather than Wembley on May 28. And fearsome ex-Great Britain prop Skerrett, one of the most aggressive forwards of the 1990s, is never far from Peet’s mind when he looks for inspiration. He said: “It was a team of internationals who you got to watch weekly. I think that’s what fostered a lot of people in Wigan to love the game: the success and glory days, the homecomings back to the town and Central Park. “It’s those sort of memories … [Read more...] about Wigan chief Matty Peet inspired by “enforcer” Kelvin Skerrett in bid to revive glory days

Ex-Man Utd player and Roy Keane “never spoke” together in entire spell at the club
Former Manchester United star Andy Goram has opened up over his relationship - or lack of - with Roy Keane during his time at the club. Back in 2001, Sir Alex Ferguson was in a spot of bother with both of his goalkeepers injured. Fabien Barthez and Raimond van der Gouw were absent through injury and surgery respectively and the then-Red Devils coach was allowed to bring in an emergency back-up on loan. A deal was clinched for Goram to join from Motherwell in March until the end of the season worth £100,000. The keeper was 36 at the time and had an extensive history with Rangers - where he had played for most of the 90s. During his time at Ibrox, he became a club legend and was voted in 2001 as their best-ever goalkeeper while he helped the Gers lift the Premier Division five times, three Scottish Cups and two Scottish League Cups. However, not everyone was fond of the former Scotland international. After joining United on emergency loan, Goram was given a rough ride by … [Read more...] about Ex-Man Utd player and Roy Keane “never spoke” together in entire spell at the club
