Fair play to Jaime stepping in there and saying he saved him in the 2nd half
Was expecting him to follow up with: "I mean don't get me wrong, I wouldn't even have you in goals for 5-a side, but you still showed glimpses of Karius there"
Agreed
Indeed 👏
Yea he was good there
He wasn’t lying either, in the second half Carragher loses Altidore and he gets his shot off but Green was quick to react
big up carragher for what he said, must’ve put some real confidence in him even 10 years later
He seems like a really nice guy ngl
Just not a nice keeper
@@mr__OK depends what team ya on
@@holyjebus well was nice every time we played him cause we always scored past him 😂😂😂
Why would you be lying 😂
I’m Welsh so I was sat crying with laughter when this happened but he still seems like a good guy and am kinda gutted that somn like this caused an instant decline in his career
Definitely need more interviews and punditry from goalkeepers with WC experience. Surely gotta be hands down the most high pressure, stressful role to play in all of football. With such an intense disparity between the quiet moments and the times when even the slightest mistake could mean another 4 years of waiting down the drain for your entire country, it's elite levels of mental focus let alone ability.
And unless you have a Manuel Neuer 2014 level World cup, youll probably only really be remembered if you mess up. Not too much glory in it but huge potential downsides
@@estocolmo4646 Howard 2014 for USA was another crazy memorable World Cup for a GK
@@samuelalexander1014 Or Buffon 2006. 2 goals conceded in 7 games. A penalty and ab own goal by defender
@Boring Name "I can't remember who he was or what team he played for" :P Thats about the most credit youre gonna get unless youre a big name or deliver a world beating performance.
In comparison, score one sick goal like tim cahill in 2010 and people will remember you
Well said I used to play in goal and yeh psychologically it's really tough and you can't be pro active either its tough if you make a mistake like that
I thought what Carragher said was decent of him.
Definitely mate, kudos to him
Brilliant
Fantastic
Stupendous
Incredible
Sad people only remember him for being Chelsea no. 3 and the mistake in SA.. He was class for many years before 2010 and did fine after
Wasnt Green supposed to be England no.1 for Euro 2008? I remember he injured himself in the qualifying.
He was quality at West ham. But went downhill after he left imo. One of my favourite keepers to be honest. He won us many points and in particular the season we survived relegation on the last day. He was a huge part but was overlooked for the tevez impact.
absolute monster for qpr in the 2013/14 playoff winning season too
only reason ZAMORA is such a famous moment is because greeno kept us in the game
Maybe one of the best keepers for PK’s ever, I remember loving him as a kid cause he was so fucking good at stopping em
Good keeper
I pity any keeper who gets picked to play for England. Absolutely horrendous role
Definitely, but honestly it's a terrifying role in any big team. The pressure is unbelievable. I think about Karius in the Champions League final. You have to have a seriously strong character to get over something like that.
absolutely. David Seamen world class keeper but we all remember Brazil 2002 Ronaldinhos goal out of outstanding career one moment which stands out
@@chichim2020 Didn't Seaman also get lobbed by Nayim in the UEFA Cup final back in 1995? In fact, it's almost from the same area of the pitch, just nearer the halfway line.
@@chichim2020 shouldn’t make certain mistakes? Everybody is only human mate. If you have played before then you know, doesn’t matter what standard you play at or how good you think you are, that your always do something that you wouldn’t normally do. Just shows more when it’s the keepers as they are the last line of defence.
@@matthewimhardbrucelee6995 thank you. People seem to think footballers aren’t human
Actually a sound guy. Would be a good pundit for the keepers side
Yeah could see it. Hes a natural
they should def have him in for goalkeeper analysis
He already is a fairly regular pundit on the radio...but yep definitely more articulate and knowledgeable than lots of the TV pundits. And yeah it would be good to see more keepers give their perspective.
He’s a class co commentator as well. Much better than most
Capello lost the plot in that tournament. Chopping and changing the backline in every match. How he started Upson ahead of King or Carragher against Germany still baffles me
Upson scored, just saying
Yet upson got the goal tho🤷♂️
Did you not see what Jozy did to Carragher in that USA game?!
@@sharvaansharex so scoring a goal makes up for the woeful defending that contributed to England conceding 4? I don’t think so
@@molo8360 No it doesn't make up for it. I was just pointing it out.
Would like to see more of Rob doing punditry, knowledge wise he knows what he's talking about
I'd replace Merson with Green on Soccer Saturday 😂
@@JGGuitarCovers noooo Merson is comedy gold
Lies again? WU CHEN
British media can't wait to jump on a goalkeeper who makes a big mistake at a big tournament, they are disgraceful.
Exactly, they did it to Joe Hart as well
Literally all media is like that
@@stupendous7848 and?
@@ummyh5660 well guy said “British media” so I expanded on it...lol
@@stupendous7848 why
As a foreigner, I find it amazing how Rob and Carragher technically speak the same language but sound so remarkably different.
Carragher doesn't speak English
There are many challenging accents in the uk. Keep studying!
I’m English, and it wasn’t until I moved to America that I realized how crazy how distinct all our accents are in such a tiny place. The entire UK is smaller than the state I live in (New York).
@@pejpm Very true. You have to move away from England to appreciate it a lot more.
@@majdijomaa4387 😂😂
Felt for him when he made the error, a lot unnecessary criticism afterwards. The role keepers play especially for country its huge.
Amen to that
For country 😂 mate it’s football
Rob is being modest about his skills. He seems like a really good guy.
Yeah he was a top keeper for the happy hammers.
If you spend a majority of your GK career as a premier league regular for like 15 years or so, even if it’s for the bottom-half teams, it means you’re doing something right
@@kowalski9er273 I agree, a current keeper in that regard I feel is underrated is Fabianski.
@@elephantello1518 Fabianski, Dubravka and Martinez (although he was at Arsenal before this season) are all excellent keepers. Sometimes we write off players simply because they don't play for the big rich teams but it takes immense amounts of talent and ability to even earn promotion from the championship into the PL and perform here.
@@mclovinjr9086 believe me as an arsenal fan I miss Martinez. Leno is great but Martinez is the better all round keeper. For me he is up there with the best of them
Rob is very well spoken and very articulate. Seems very humble and down to earth with excellent knowledge. Would love him to be a pundit a bit more
💯
he commentates US games
As an Irishman, I now have huge respect for Rob Green. There's a man who has been through it, hung out to dry, and has perspective and respect. Respect to that man.
England fans are brutal, you can have 200 good games but one mistake they will call you shit, just like most fans in prem
Bullshit. Youre downplaying the scenario
Green wanted to cry when Carra told him he saved him
100th like ahaga
I’d like to see him do more punditry
He's been on DAZN in Canada quite a bit this season
He clearly knows what hes talking about, very clear and concise. Would be great to have a GKs perspective on match day too.
I'd actually like to watch interviews with athletes who've had very public screwups. Not out of malice, but to gain perspective. Perhaps to put my own less visible errors in perspective.
I think there’s a documentary series on Netflix called Losers or something like that.
That’s actually mature of you to say. I have the highest esteem for you
That's a really mature response.
I find it helps me judge less as well. But tht could be me ;-)
@@JulianSirian It's nice to be snapped back to feeling empathy. I'm guilty of not thinking about players that way. In a different sense when the news broke yesterday about Angel Di Maria I suddenly saw him as a dad, husband and human, not as a player for a team I don't really cheer for.
@@coffeebreakfiction1765 It's called Losers. I just found it. I'm going to try and episode.
As a West Ham fan I’ll say this...all three of those keepers played for us and Green was by far the best of the trio.
Nice touch from Becks and Carra to comfort the man when the entire world was vilifying him. Must be such a huge relief especially considering the manager couldn’t be bothered to manage the morale of his player and squad at large. Shambles from Capello.
Have to say, Rob Green seems like a quality guy. People tend to forget that he was only at the tournament because he was in blistering form that year. On his day he was a world-class keeper.
Whole tournament was a disaster. The Algeria performance was shocking 0-0. outplayed by Germany despite the Frank Lampard disallowed goal we were 2nd best
2-2 we would have won.
@@ejkalegal3145 Naa, people say that because a draw going into half time would’ve given us momentum...but we were SO exposed at the back. Defenders just didn’t have the legs on them to keep up with the passing and the clever runs. I have no doubt in my mind they would’ve continue to make the runs to score again and again, it would’ve been 4-2 at best. They made us work so hard we wouldn’t have been able to keep it going regardless of the score in the first half
@@ejkalegal3145 lol you are dreaming, we got popped that game
@@AdamSmith75th no, we had to chase the game and it suited their counter attacking game perfectly. They keep catching us on the break in the 2nd half . If we had been 2-2 we would not have been pressing so hard 2nd half for the equaliser and left ourselves so exposed at the back. Basically, we got cheated. But everyone hates England so no one said shit.
the result flattered germany a bit, england played well and at least went for it. the algeria game was the worst WC game I've ever watched
Massive respect to Rob. Also fair play to Jamie for remembering and mentioning his mistake in that game, I’m sure most wouldn’t remember let alone talk absorb it. Really enjoyable chat 👍
Shame Rob left Leeds. Had a great season with some unbelievable saves! Judging by this interview a great professional on and off the pitch. I can’t begin to imagine the confidence knock he would’ve had being dropped after one mistake. A sad thought knowing Green will go down in history for a fumble...
A great professional blaming a manager for picking him for his own mistakes.
@@cockoffgewgle4993 don't bullshit
“Standing outside my flat that was empty... bit weird “ 😭🤣🤣🤣Brilliant
That was such a kind gesture from Carragher
the fact that england had a 40 yr old David James as their first choice keeper tells u alot about their 2010 world cup campaign
Shouldve been Joe Hart, easily
@@patchh15 for sure, only thing is that he was still inexperienced back then
@@patchh15 wasn’t even at city at that point
@@HarrisonJamess Hart’s season at Birmingham was one of the best of his career though. He was named in the PFA team that season as well
Rob Green was our best keeper then.
0:27 Life of a goalkeeper is not only rough mentally but also physically...
@Mr D yeah most people don’t get to decide which nation they play for tho you melt
@@jaker6363 They should be able to if they’re English, England is a joke.
That finger has seen some better days. Wasn't expecting a "good finger" to be at an angle like that compared to the rest of the hand.
Man that looks awful
@Mr D yes maybe he should have moved to another country and lived there for years and hope to get a chance....haha not
Really, really humble and mellow guy, was a world class goalkeeper and will always be remembered for the times he saved us 🏴
World class?! Absolutely not. Why do you people throw that term around so much? Very few players have actually been world class
I remember watching this game & remember thinking "WHAT AN ABSOLUTE S*** GOALKEEPER! WHY HAVE WE GOT HIM IN GOAL!?" but damn, 11 years later and hearing him speak of this, what an unfortunate mistake to happen to a good man.
Football is a fickle game
@@TheTarrant97 very
Rob Green was actually a good keeper in his day, but of course people live off one mistake.
Not just a good man a very good Goalkeeper.. Norwich, West Ham, Leeds, Chelsea some of the clubs he played for
@Ddhfacetyy very true, my bad. I need glasses wow.
"You work all your life towards something and sometimes it doesn't work out" I feel for Rob
He just got scapegoated, he made one mistake, nobody blamed Gerrard for getting spun by Dempsey or Heskey and Wright Phillips hitting good chances straight at the keeper.
Gerrard was the one who scored and put England ahead
Am I misremembering this, but didn't Heskey injure Ferdinand before the tournament? I was still wishing we took Owen that year.
@@tomjones370 I know still got spun by dempsey
@@TabraizA2705 Bent had just scored 24 in 9-10 should've taken him
@@englandgoals9672 did well to even get back into position
Still had a great career. Hope to see more of him as a pundit.
Rob Green was by far the best addition to the Sky Sports team I've ever seen, and that's including Roy Keane.. This interview and even his half time analysis made it feel like I was listening to a Podcast.. Very well spoken, analytically astute & so easy to listen to from a lay man's perspective.
Thanks Rob! First world cup I was old enough to understand and the first time I saw my country score in a world cup. All thanks to you. Granted I've still never seen us win a knockout game but still I have good memories of that world cup
He was always a quality keeper. Had a great season with us at Leeds seems a top bloke
Received too much criticism back then, huge respect for him. He had the whole country after him, never crawled into a ball and carried on with his career. Yeah he wasn’t the greatest, but a top professional nevertheless.
Dropping him for the second game was incredibly harsh
Everyone remembers the saves james made against Germany but none of them were outstanding. He did, however, get beaten at his near post and also fail to get to a ball before klose when the ball was kicked from one penalty spot all the way into his penalty area without anyone touching it
Two really poor errors
Great reaction from rob and he should be proud of himself ...for being honest and showed he’s strength with all that 💪🏻and yes Jamie showed class there as well
Used to work as a barman for corporate and charity events. Once worked a charity one for a private school in North Yorkshire that full of really snobby parents. Only decent down to earth bloke there was Rob Green, absolutely lovely guy and was great to chat to when he came up to the bar. Even gave me a £20 tip at the end too, what a gent!
I thought you guys don’t do tipping!!!
He can still say he played in a World Cup, that’s more than I’ve ever done
We weren't going to win anyway. Mountains out of molehills. No matter the situation, England will always find a way to win. They will go out of their way to lose.
The only player who has more pressure on him than an England Keeper is Messi. The amount of pressure he's under at Barca and Argentina is unparalleled in sports. The worst was when he was valued at 600m to stop him leaving. Lol
his little finger 😳
Common injury in sports where catching a ball is required.
@@DeCharlesFre no i think its polydactlyly
That’s also take my attention from the video
I would never of noticed without your comment... 😳😳😳
@@mohammedzaid9191 it's not, Rob Greene said in 2015 that is was just the result of 20 year of goalkeeping. Just accumulative injuries to a finger which hadn't properly healed.
Really hope we get to see Green doing more punditry like this, really great talker, says things plainly and clearly while getting to the point.
Sky could do with someone like him on tv a bit more regularly, and with the bonus of getting a goalkeepers point of view on things too
English goalkeeper: *gets a call-up*
World Cup: I'm about to end this man's whole career
Made Jordan Pickford tbf
Godot i see you everywhere, we must have same reccomend and i always ask you if i can have some coffee
Pickford was class
Opposite for Pickford. He crashed after the WC
@@DricusDuPlessis185 Why coffee? I'm curious.
Really eloquent, amiable guy. Great insight.
I listened to him talking and then went and watched the mistake and I felt genuinely sorry for him. He seems like a nice man. Pity this happened to him .
A good keeper, with bad luck. Mistakes is part of the game. Wish him all the best!
If someone on England could have risen and put one in this might be a much-forgotten moment. He got to join Paul Robinson on an unfortunate list.
The struggles goalkeepers have are unreal. Playing normal football, while also playing the kind on football only goalkeepers play.
I played in goal. Only at Sunday League level. Its weird. For me at least the following things always happened.
If the opposition dominates the match and gets shots and corners every few minutes the better i played. Sometimes the opposition could get 15 shots on target multiple corners etc and i would save a huge number of the chances.
If the other team only created one or two chance, half chance, corner, free kick etc i always made a mess of it because subconciously youre not prepared at all.
@@irieite9666 Yeah, it's a weird one.
@@irieite9666 yeah I feel you
@@irieite9666 I think it’s safe to say that everyone who has played keeper feels this way... great way to put it
Top man... He's punditry is also 1st class
wow this was actually very intresting, keep it up 👍🏼
He is a chill person he came into my dads pizza shop about 10 years ago and I didn’t realise it was him until someone pointed him out just a genuine guy!
Doesn’t that make him unremarkable..?
I get the impression that Green isn’t the biggest fan of Capello...
The same can be said about 90% of the players that played under Capello. 😂
@@turdferguson7264 yeah i dont think many players liked him 😂
Yeah, a winning manager with a glorious CV definitely wasn’t for him, as his career proved
@@patchh15 Pity he didn't understand English football.
@@patchh15 You can be a great club manager and completely fail at national management, and it's clear Capello's style didn't carry over well into his first international job as England manager.
It doesn't take a genius to work out that not telling the team who the starting goalkeeper will be until 3 hours before the first game isn't a good tactic...
I bet he's glad social media wasn't as big back then as it is now
What a great character Rob seems to be. I remember watching him in the EPL and he was a very solid keeper. Crazy thing is I actually remember being happy to see his name on the game sheet that day and I really wanted him to do well against the states. That mistake definitely didn’t represent who Rob was as a keeper but I also appreciate his perspective on the keepers on England by saying the were naturally more talented than him because they were. I think Capello picked him because he was the most level headed between the three of them and was still a very decent keeper/athlete. Was an intriguing video.
What a classy guy, graceful and nice humour too 👍
Lloris made an equally devastating error in the World Cup FINAL. Muslera also made a bad error against France in the same WC. In 2010 it's the whole England squad that was bad. Just unlucky that he is not blessed with a good squad like France that can cushion the error.
Yes Lloris made a mistake, but give credit to Mandzukic. Crazy pressure punished Lloris for taking a touch. Lloris had to clear instantly, many goalies wouldve made the same mistake.
De Gea against Portugal
Rob Green speaks really well and eloquently.
Shame on the presenter for that opening monologue poor opening statement
Exactly bro
Great guy. Loved his little stint at Chelsea. Also enjoyed seeing him lift the Europa league trophy in full gear even though he wasn't registered for the tournament. That smile was priceless
He always comes off as a lovely guy. Everyone makes mistakes and it was hardly a great tournament from the rest of the team ngl. He deserved forgiveness years back
If this was a black goalkeeper you’d be abusing him, just saying
Rob is a great person, much love to him❤️
Can't believe " Abbey road" from the Beatles wasn't even out yet the last time we won a trophy
Lmao
Fuckin' Revolver wasn't out
Strange measure for time that
depressing thought, man hadnt landed on the moon either
Even Revolver hadn’t come out let alone Abbey Road
Met Rob green in a cafe in York, he was studying for an exam for his degree later that day. Really nice bloke, it's awful how the media slate people for making mistakes. It's as if we've come to believe that humans aren't prone to making mistakes and learning their whole lives!
What a guy
Loved this man for west man, made some crazy saves!
From this, and Ben Foster's latest podcast appearance Fabio Capello seems like a right knob.
Can’t think of a player that played under him who actually has said they enjoyed it hahaha
Joe Cole couldn’t stand him either
The way he talks about this whole experience and football in general makes me feel like he’d make a great manager
He made an error. Seems like a nice guy. Capello was atrocious.
Damn rob’s laugh at 6:49 really felt pure. I love the lad and Jamie is a legend for saving him there.
Never got the respect he deserved in my opinion was a solid keeper, seems nice humble bloke aswell
As an American premier league and USMNT fan personally the biggest issue as of why England didn’t do so well in the 2010 World Cup outside finishing second to the Americans, the media pressure played a massive role. When the tabloids are saying *EASY* (England, Algeria, Slovenia, Yanks) that puts a ton of pressure which leaks into the field of play, thus why it led to an early exit. As for Rob Green he’s a great guy, it sucks that one moment can turn you into a National villain of sorts.
2065 Karius Opens Up...
I want him to. He's been very quiet about this subject, and I don't blame him.
Liverpool didn't treat him well. He was fantastic throughout the season. They made him walk alone.
@@ekowhanson9268 fantastic is a stretch, but I'm with you on the fact that we shouldn't have forced him out.
I was 8 and remember my dad yelling at the TV so clearly.. wish he didn't now seems so honest n genuine
Great interview. Nice from Jamie to point out what Rob did for him and Rob is such a top bloke.
His Sister was my year 3 teacher back in 2010 😭😭
What a king. Insane amount of character. Hugely inspirational.
He should spend more time on screen and people will start to get over it. This is the first time I've ever heard him speak
Already done a bigger job than KDB in that department
Been on 5 live for ages. Always talks a lot of sense
Rob Green, 219 appearances and six years as West Ham keeper. He was one of us and a very decent keeper. Hammers fans will always remember Rob with great affection. Very decent of Jamie Carragher.
Remember when this happened... it was nice and hot outside, I was eating a chicken madras, pilau rice, chips, naan bread and a bottle of bud. Threw it all over the gaff. I knew from then it was another cursed World Cup for us
Every time I hear Rob Green he comes across as class.
Rob: I made a mistake
Roy Keane: it’s your job to save that
It was the same for Karius in the 2019 Champions League final. He hadn't made a major individual error all season, which is why Klopp started him, but on the night he made two individual errors. We often forget the 49 games a keeper plays where they do well but judge them on the one game where their mistake matters the most.
Couldn't keep my eyes off his little finger on his right hand 🤣
Wtf happened
@@nicholas5905 probably broke/dislocated it so many times making saves that the joint is completely arthritic and stuck like that. Lots of old NFL wide receivers have the same thing from catching balls with their hands. Look up Tory Holt to see what I mean
Always loved Rob
No one :
Absolutely No one :
Jamie Carragher : I got turned by Altidore
Proper refreshing seeing the human behind the footballer. GKs are the unsung heroes
Jamie "I got too tight and got turned" story of his career.
😂😂😂
Yeah, you would have thought being about as quick as an oil tanker, having the same turning circle as one; you would lay off a bit and protect the space 😂
😂
🤣
The difference was it was Altidore turning him, a walking wardrobe.
I might be the only American in here so interesting to hear the British perspective here. It’s also funny hearing our players talked about as the opposing side lol
Capello was awful, made it a torrid time for our players in 2010
Wow what an honest and well spoken person Green is. Very impressed with Carra as well. Great panel!
What wasn't mentioned, which I'm surprised Green didn't mention was that many goalkeepers at that tournament were complaining about the ball. Apparently the ball was too light and would swerve all over the place. There were quite a few weird goals at that tournament as well.
I really enjoyed Robs analysis and candid punditry last night. Takes a very brave individual to speak so eloquently of his own mistakes, I think Sky would benefit from him being on regularly, comes across as a really good bloke as well.
I remember when that moment happened, was I upset? Obviously, but I had no hate towards Rob Green, I understood it was a mistake that could have happened to anyone and I actually started to root for him after that. People forget that he did go on to have a good game afterwards, that shows an incredible amount of mental strength to keep your performance up. Top player, top bloke!
I was annoyed at rob green, but then I saw how the rest of the team played during the tournament and quickly got over the mistake
@@MrGidds91 😂😂😂 that 0-0 game against Slovenia was actually worse than the Germany game for me. Only England could make an easily winnable game painful and boring haha
@@AdamSmith75th don’t even think it was Slovenia 0-0, want it Algeria we managed to draw 0-0 against. Bad times 😂😭
@@MrGidds91 Yep, you’re right...you can see how little I remember from that game. I’ve blocked it out!
Solid Goalkeeeper from the start of his career to the finish. And a great bloke to match.
4:24 for the error
Good lad
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Greeno had been great for West Ham for a couple of seasons before that and totally deserved to start that game IMO. It's a shame he's remembered for that by a lot of people as he kept us in so many games and that's what I will always remember from his career. I really felt for him at the time as I knew he was not a bad keeper. He was a very good goalkeeper who made one high profile mistake.
his pinkey finger on his right hand jeez
Goalkeeping-related injury?
Normally just happens to keepers over time. I think in the play-off final in 2014 he dislocated it and was motm
Like stapled on Eddie Hitler fingers on bottom
Dislocated my pinky diving down to my right. Great save but knew something was wrong.
@@thegreenbikerider6189 I’ve done similar. Saved a header from point blank range but I didn’t know until the game finished like 10 mins later. This was like 3 years ago, pinky is still crooked
Rob speaks so well and eloquently about what happened. Top bloke
Nice guy feel sorry for him now. Tbh I didn’t at the time I was like wtf 😭
