This week we head to a cafe in Gibraltar to catch up with the elusive Stephen Ireland. Things don't always go the way you plan, especially in football, but Stephen has met those career hurdles with dignity and professionalism. In this conversation, we relive some of his iconic moments, and Stephen opens up about how it felt to be on the outside looking into situations and squads he was more than qualified to be part of.  Our phone connection was not great, but stick with it, the insights that come from the mind of this man are worth the trip.
