MAGIC MARTIN
Martin O’Neill has always been a little underrated. As a player at Nottingham Forest, he endured a testy relationship with Brian Clough and was once told by his manager that the linesman was having a better game than him. “You’re arrogant, with very little to be arrogant about”, Clough would regularly say to the Irishman, who ended up doing a pretty good job of proving his manager wrong. But maybe that was Cloughie’s genius, knowing which buttons to push.
