  • On our latest episode of Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet, we are joined by footballing legend Jaap Stam.
    Gary and Roy’s former Manchester United team-mate talks about how the move to Old Trafford came about after establishing himself in the Netherlands.
    Once the world’s most expensive defender, Stam chats about the highs of winning the Treble with the Red Devils and reveals all on his infamous exit.
    The former Dutch international also talks about AC Milan’s Champions League final defeat to Jamie Carragher’s Liverpool, telling us what really happened in Carlo Ancelotti’s dressing room at half-time as they were 3-0 up.
    Stam also talks about the life of a football coach and gives his opinions on current Manchester United manager and compatriot Erik ten Hag.
    Finally, we end the show with a massive question around the table: Who is the dream Premier League centre-back partnership?
    If you liked the episode don't forget to let us know in the comments and if you want to listen only you can catch Stick to Football on all major podcast platforms.

    Nesta and Stam were the perfect duo. Both master in their own ways.

One my fav's center back, and in my opinion much better and more complete than Rio and Vidic.

      And that was just the defence. Think about the midfield and attack: Pirlo, Gattuso, Seedorf, Kaka, Shevchenko, Inzaghi. Apart from Dida, every player in that XI was not only an elite player, but an actual legend of the game. Incredible. It just illustrates again why it's called The Miracle Of Istanbul.
      But on a side note, as legendary as that Milan side were, they had developed a bad habit of collapsing in the CL. They did it the previous year vs Deportivo, they did it in the semi vs PSV and of course most famously in the final. Strange with all the experience they had, but then again maybe that gives a clue. Perhaps they were running out of legs and in certain games they just collapsed physically for certain periods of the game? Or was it just purely mental i.e. a leadership or concentration issue? Or both? It's very strange looking back on it.

Insanity that we ever let him leave United in the first place, especially when one considers what he went on to do in Italy. Looking at him sitting next to Roy, his former captain and defensive shield helps exemplify the sheer extent of how far Man Utd have fallen.
