Paddy Kenny packs a bit, possibly due to the munchies. Goalies get away with a lot though, this has to be an outfielder.

Razor seemed to pick up a lot of injuries. Once, he and I and a couple of the other lads were in the little gym at Melwood doing some recuperative work while most of the players were outside on the training pitches. The physio came in and told Razor he wanted him to do half an hour's running on the treadmill while he went out and supervised some of the lads who had just returned to full training.

As soon as he was a fair distance away, Razor, who weighed about 18 stone by then, hopped off the treadmill but left it running. He reached down into his bag and pulled out a foil container which had a bacon and egg sandwich in it. He sat down, whipped out a newspaper and started reading through it.

I was keeping a lookout for him and eventually I saw the physio start to make his way back towards the gym. Razor had a bag of ice that was supposed to be for him to strap around his injured foot. Some of it had melted so he rooted around in it and splashed the water over his hair and face and a bit on his t-shirt for good measure. And then he jumped back on the treadmill.

The physio came back in, saw a guy who seemed to be sweating like a pig and was fill of admiration. 'Razor, f***ing great professional,' he said, looking at everyone in the room as if we should all be using Razor as our model.

I remember Keegan talking about Newcastle's three pronged attack of Viduka, Martens and Owen - saying that you really needed your lynch-pin forward to stay in position at the point of attack to allow the others to exploit their pace, and that "there's no-one in the game better at standing still than Mark Viduka."
