Listen Later

In our latest Replay, former Arsenal, Aston Villa and England forward Paul Merson talks about the impact of Harry Redknapp on his career from our Greatest Mavericks episode. The two men had a memorable season together at Portsmouth in the Championship, winning the title and gaining promotion to the Premier League.

This bonus episode also includes unheard material, including a brilliant story where Merse recalls the time he took an unsanctioned mid-season break in Barbados and Harry found out. He also reveals:
Why Harry was such a brilliant manager to work under
Harry’s hilarious assessment of his Portsmouth squad as he tried to convince Merse to join
The set of fans with a fearsome reputation who gave Merse a standing ovation
Football's Greatest is a Folding Pocket Production with BBC Studios.
