“But I was European Player of the Year at a very young age and I was the Golden Boot winner in my first two years in the Premier League.

Maybe if a manager had suggested he play a deeper role earlier in his career, he could've prolonged his career by becoming something more than a one trick pony.

 

If only such a mythical manager existed.

The former England star is retiring after managing just one start for Stoke all season, because he says he can no longer cut it at the highest level since losing his blistering turn pace.

 

Eh? Why didn't he retire 12 years ago, then?

Hatred aside, he was one of the best from 97-04.

 

Would even say till that Spurs game in December 2005. He did very well for us in that first half of the season, not missing many games and scoring some good goals.

 

Ever since, though, he wasn't the same player.
