We bring you the legendary Phil Thompson, and what an episode it is. Growing up in Liverpool in the era of the Beatles, Phil spent his childhood playing football between the lampposts on the streets of Kirkby, before being scouted and ultimately picked up by Liverpool. We talk about what it was like growing up in a town where so much football talent emerged from, his truly extraordinary career, and some wild tales from his era as a player — including the time he left the Champions League trophy on the bus.
