Graeme Souness has finally apologised to James Milner, 18 years after taking aim at the midfielder following his loan move from Newcastle to Aston Villa.
Souness had been in charge of the Magpies for a year when he opted to send Milner to the Midlands, having been reluctant to play him during his first season as boss. After sanctioning the loan, Souness defended himself to his critics.
But the comments he made appeared to be a slight on Milner, who has since gone on to have an excellent career. He has won three Premier League titles, two FA Cups and the Champions League across spells at Manchester City and Liverpool.
