Ian Wright re-lives the game that changed his life | MOTD

[Johnstone]

When footballers love football. Top darts Mr Wright.

[jb]

Loved seeing how giggly he was reminiscing. Always smile when Wrighty is on camera!

[GholamFareed]

Ian Wright what a class act who possessed all the prowess of a great striker & his awareness was second to none a proper fox in the box!!!

[billparsons]

Good to hear him speak fondly of Palace.

[Garnachogoat]

Ian Wright is proper legend and one of my heroes even though I’m a United fan

[broca]

It’s touching to see how emotional he is reliving this experience. He’s a pretty likable guy!

[UnrivalledBanter]

Supported Liverpool all my life. But loved Wrighty. Wrighty = Black football Icon & legend.

[hiitdon]

What a man!! I’m chelsea but he is a different hero he is for me the main man

[Phil-nc]

I still remember this. I was a 10 year old United fan watching it on tele. Was gutted at the time but Wrightie's alright ; )

[johndowney]

God remember this like it was yesterday, im a liverpool fan they beat us in an epic semi, gutted they didnt win it.

[nerobruno]

Back in the day when football excited us a whole lot more.

(because there was on TV or the pub and no TV in your pocket and no 57 million channels with 24/7 football)

[joemorgan]

Such lovely Story well done Ian Wright

[Junior-mwzn]

I like Ian Wright brilliant player for Arsenal.

[paulgardner]

I can't believe Wright and shearer in the other programme put Roy Keane number one never

[willav]

Shame there was final replays. Stupid idea.

[andyhello]

You ignore in 1990, man utd were totally rubbish, and if man utd had lost this final, alex ferguson probably would of been sacked

His first 5 years at man uts were a disaster

Man utd playing in this final, was playing for fergies future, as he would not of had one if they had lost to palace

Wrighty leaves out, there really was not that much difference between the two sides at that time

Palace certainly had a chance, so it was not a total shock they put in a decent effort that day

Good for him he remembers who gave him that start, not many black players appreciate how many people would of helped them get to where they are.

Good for ian
