    Paul has paid his dues. Why do eejits in RTE want to talk about his alcoholism from the past. It's well publicised. We should be celebrating Paul not digging all this up again.

    I grew up watching Paul play for Ireland, he was worth a goal a match. Legend.

    Why no mention or reference to the huge portion of his career (when he played his greatest football) at Aston Villa? During this period he became a world famous defender for Ireland and Villa: PFA Footballer of The Year, a member of the 1990 FIFA team of the year, a Wembley cup winner twice? (Before the days of clubs buying trophies).
    A very disappointing and predictable interview from RTE.

    Rte, put the whole video on youtube or a direct link to the whole thing from your site, rather than just a generic player link.

    Paul McGrath was one of the greatest Irish players ever.But to say he was better than Roy Keane or Johnny Giles is to say too much.All three were clearly world class and we should just leave it at that.McGrath and Keane together against the Italians in 94 was incredible

    Thanks RTE for not mentioning the club he played the most football for, the club that saved his career and made him one of the greatest defenders in the world: Aston Villa F.C.
    Quite astonishing really how the media spins and shapes things.
    No wonder Ireland is full of gloryhunters.

  • @kady7869

    Instead of gloryfing his drinking with stupid comments about McGrath winning MOTM awards while drunk, perhaps RT could have questioned him about all the wreckage left behind by his heavy drinking.
