His list of lazy players was pretty funny.
Wayne Hennessey
He used to just lay down in the gym on one of those thick blue mats and just relaxed while the rest of us worked out.
Bryan Ruiz
He was never near the gym, I don't think he even knew where it was.
He absolutely hated being even marginally uncomfortable. If it was cold or we were away to Stoke he'd never come along.
Dimitar Berbatov
I've never seen a man get so many massages in my life. I'm certain he spent more hours getting massaged than he trained.
Whenever we were in the gym working out, Berbatov was getting massages.
I knew the guy who gave him massages and usually at the end of the season the players give the physios a gift: a trip, a car, money, whatever.
He'd massaged Berbatov for hundreds of hours this season and he got nothing.
Emmanuel Adebayor
I played for Fulham and he played for Spurs. We were attacking and I was marking Adebayor in the midfield, suddenly he says "Ah, I'm hungry."
I replied, "What?"
"I can't wait for the game to finish, I'm so hungry. Do you know a good restaurant in London, Hangeland?"
Later when he came to Crystal Palace I started to realise where this came from. When we had strength workouts he would sit in the gym with just a cup of coffee and a muffin.
He was being paid by Manchester City, Tottenham and Palace at the same time, and he was sitting in the gym drinking coffee.
Incredible natural talent, very lazy.
Bobby Zamora
A strong man, but hated the gym intensely. Whenever it was time for deadlifts he'd start feeling his hamstring.
This happened every single time we went to the gym.
Wilfried Zaha
Amazing physique and very athletic, huge potential. On some Mondays he would come over to me and say "I'm starting my program now!"He'd clearly decided to start it during the weekend.
We'd then go to the gym together and he'd do like five push-ups, sigh, and leave. He would be incredible if he was serious.
Jimmy Bullard
Great player, but so incredibly weak. Never interested in going into the gym - at all.
Also his story about Bellamy as the biggest idiot in football.
During the handshakes before the game, Bellamy took my hand. He was a head lower than me. He looked me straight in the eye and said, "You f****** w*****".
I was thinking, “What the hell? I've never even met you!"
