Gary also reveals his close relationship and admiration of his sporting star siblings Tracey and Phil. He also talks honestly about post-football career that has seen him become a regular football analysist, England’s assistant coach and an infamous spell as Valencia manager.

On this week’s episode on The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet, we are joined by Newcastle United and England winger Anthony Gordon. Gary Neville meets Gordon along Whitley Bay beach. He starts with the first part of quick-fire questions, where the Liverpudlian opens up about the importance of psychology and meditation on his game. Gordon made a huge decision to move to Newcastle from Everton in January 2022 and talks about life at St James Park under Eddie Howe, his ambitions and the club's goals as he enjoys his most prolific spell in professional football to date. With the upcoming Euros and having made his senior England debut in March’s international friendlies against Brazil and Belgium, the 23-year-old will be looking to replicate last summer's achievements that saw him named player of the tournament as England lifted the under-21 European trophy. Lastly, Quick-Fire Questions resume where Gordon reveals his best goal, who he’d want to take a last-minute penalty to save his life and which former-teammate Gordon reminds Gary of in terms of self-confidence.

With five Premier League titles, a Champions League, FA Cup, Club World Cup and countless individual awards to his name, Rooney enjoyed a glorious career at Old Trafford where he established himself as one of the all-time great footballers. The 38-year-old chats about his success, the infamous transfer request and how his time faired at the club after Sir Alex Ferguson’s retirement where he was reunited with his former Everton boss David Moyes before Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho took over.

‘I wouldn’t change a thing.’ Few players have experienced such incredible highs and devastating lows as Joe Gomez since the defender’s arrival from Charlton Athletic in 2015. From parading the biggest prizes in the game through the streets of Liverpool, to heart-wrenching injuries, Gomez has lived through despair and elation in equal measure. In the latest We Are Liverpool, we’ll learn how those moments aren’t reflected upon with regret, but with inspiration and an outlook on life that suggests they were key in shaping who he is today. Having played in many teams since joining the club, Gomez also shines light on what makes the current incarnation of Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool so unique, the close relationship he has with Virgil van Dijk and why he was arguably the most sleep deprived during the 2019 Champions League parade. There’s also time to find out which of his Liverpool teammates from past and present was the most loved, which of the current crop are most serious about their fashion and which position is toughest to play; full-back or centre-half?
