The footballers were keen to remain peripheral to the events of the day. For once, it was not all about them. It was primarily about those they had come to walk alongside, other victims of fraud and financial misconduct, and campaigners demanding urgent changes to the law before more slide into a spiral of depression . Nurses, soldiers, postal workers, IT contractors. Public sector workers and the self-employed. Savers from all professions. All of them exhausted by the turmoil. Out of ideas on where to turn next.

MARTIN KEOWN: Manchester City will have to change how they play against Arsenal without injured John Stones and Kyle Walker. Pep Guardiola will hope he is not left counting the cost of the international break

www.dailymail.co.uk, March 29, 2024
MARTIN KEOWN TALKS TACTICS: For City, there could be some annoyance with England's involvement against Brazil and Belgium. Players are unlikely to be characterized by what they do in a friendly for their country, but how many trophies they win at their club will determine how much money they win. But Walker and Stones deserve praise, not criticism, for their desire to represent England rather than finding a reason to hide themselves for Arsenal. Gone are the days when I would turn up for an England friendly wondering which of Manchester United's players might vanish!Like in March 1998, when David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Andy Cole and more went missing for a match against Switzerland, with it transpiring Sir Alex Ferguson had told them to prioritise their treble chase!

Teddy Sheringham and Andy Cole of Manchester United were known not to see eye to eye at their respective managers. But what other football players have failed to be 'teammates'?

www.dailymail.co.uk, February 15, 2024
ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS: Andy Cole and Teddy Sheringham developed a fruitful partnership on the track, scoring at a rate of a goal every 85 minutes. They wouldn't talk to each other off the field. Cole's England debut against Uruguay in March 1995 was the issue. In the 71st minute, Sheringham, a Spurs player at the time, was suspended for Cole by manager Terry Venables. Cole demanded his hand and Sheringham snubbed it, leaving him humiliated. Sheringham joined Manchester United in 1997, but the two guys were unable to get together. Cole said, "I would rather sit down and have a cuppa with Neil Ruddock, who broke my leg in two places in 1996, than with Teddy Sheringham." Nevertheless, the two guys buried the hatchet after bumping into each other in a nightclub a decade ago.

Man United's Andy Cole is chastised for signing too many ageing strikers... as the Red Devils return to Athens' £60 million rated youngster Rasmus Hojlund to fill the attacking void

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 20, 2023
CHRIS WHEELER: As his old club team make a move for Athena's young gun, Rasmus Hojlund, Andy Cole has chastised Manchester United for signing too many ageing strikers. Cristiano Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Edinson Cavani, and Odion Ighalo were all in their 30s when they moved to Old Trafford in recent years, with 30-year-old Wout Weghorst the first to join United on loan in January. Cole, a United legend, scored 121 goals for the club and formed a life-threatening partnership with Dwight Yorke at a time when Sir Alex Ferguson had a chance to call on Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Teddy Sheringham. He believes that the club have plugged their attack with too many older stop-gaps in recent years and failed to plan for the future.
