28/12/93 v Chelsea (a)0-1 Premiership

Mark Stein got the only goal and I got an absolute bollocking from Keegan for it. Watto [Steve Watson] was playing right back and had the ball on the right with loads and loads of time, so I made a run up the left for him to clip a diagonal ball across. Anyway, instead of playing the easy ball forward Watto tries to dribble it past a couple of their blokes and gets caught. I legged it back trying to catch up with Stein and by the time I caught him he side-stepped me and scored. KK went mad at half-time and had a real dig at me. I said all Watto needed to do was chip it forward and Keegan says, in front of the whole team, "You know what he's like, you should have known he would do something stupid." Wattos face was a picture. He's pretty thick-skinned, though and laughed it off. He knew himself that when he was under pressure he would often do something daft.
