We love Jason McAteer here at Balls.ie, but if you were to talk to any of the former pros who played him in his hey-day for Liverpool they would probably take the opportunity to regale you with a moment that he may not be proud of.
We've all heard the tales about the time he asked for his pizza to be cut into four slices because he wasn't hungry enough for eight, or when he shouted '180!' after meeting Snooker legend Jimmy White, and of course the time he confused Pennsylvania with Transylvania while over in the United States with Ireland, but are they actually true?
Jason was a guest on BT Sport's Football Tonight on Friday evening, and he was directly asked whether or not those stories were indeed correct:
Brilliant.
Two out of three 'aint bad, but you've got to love McAteer's storytelling ability.
