2) Mick McCarthy tirade
While on international duty, the former midfielder had a massive falling out with manager Mick McCarthy. He was unhappy with the poor professionalism of the set up compared to Manchester United, and launched a foul mouthed tirade.
“Mick, you’re a liar… you’re a f**king w**ker. I didn’t rate you as a player, I don’t rate you as a manager, and I don’t rate you as a person. You’re a f**king w**ker and you can stick your World Cup up your ar*e. The only reason I have any dealings with you is that somehow you are the manager of my country! You can stick it up your b**locks,” he ranted.
