Ed1, Damien Duff is a player I loved, I remember him playing for Blackburn and then went to Chelsea at a time when I would have loved him to join Liverpool.

Was Liverpool ever interested in him?

Also, if he isn't on your player profile list, can you do one on him when you've got through the rest? Thanks.

{Ed001's Note - we tried to buy him when he went to Chelsea. I have added him to the list.}

Didn’t we show an interest before he ruined himself at Newcastle?

I saw him in a pub once. Chelsea had just been confirmed champions and he was out with a friend. If I recall correctly, he was injured at the time. I didn't speak to him, he was surrounded by people congratulating him. It sticks in my mind mainly because my GF was telling her dad that she'd seen him - I had to tell her who he was, but she didn't quite remember so she told her dad she'd seen Donald Duck of Chelsea.

Seemed a nice guy, though - had all the time in the World for everyone, even though he looked as if he was just out for a quiet drink.

Duffer was a very good player, just a shame he was injured quite a lot
Played against him a few times as a kid, he stood out then big time
We also happen to share the exact same birth date

That's my lame claim to fame 🙄.

I think it's quite easy to forget just how good he was. He looked like the sky was the limit at Blackburn, so it was no surprise that Chelsea paid such a big fee as soon as they entered the Abramovich era (didn't he sign at the same time Lampard did? ) .

He would have been great for us at that time.

An Irish legend, time for everyone, always free to give some advice he's a gent. He's since gone on to coach the youth teams at Shamrock rovers back in Dublin, hauling the kids in at 6am for training before school (anyone who follows the LOI knows why this is necessary, skills gap etc etc) I think he's been recently offered a similar role at Celtic. Always would have wondered what would have happened if he'd signed for us and stayed injury free.
