Leeds United forward Patrick Bamford has recounted an incident involving his former Derby County manager, Steve McClaren. Bamford shared the story of McClaren’s reaction after he attempted ‘the wobble ball’ technique during an afternoon free-kick, which resulted in the ball being skied. McClaren’s response to the high shot was, “Don’t worry, we’ve found the ball.” This anecdote is featured in the complete series of ‘My Mate’s A Footballer’, available for listening on BBC Sounds.
