BY RIATH AL-SAMARRAI: Chris Kamara was pushed a little too far lately by an exclusive interview.

We've spent the better part of 40 minutes debating the serious stuff, but this is a segue to the more mundane aspects of life and death. He's chuckling away like a good guy, much like the Kamara we remember. We're all familiar with Kammy. However, it was never a persona. It was him.

"I can only tell Jose [Mourinho] that I told him to Manchester United and Jose said, "This lot won't have enough funds for him." Yeah, and he went to Liverpool,' he said on the podcast.
