The side would often times be very good, with enough elite players to make them a force within the Premier League and Europe. Despite the obvious Istanbul delight, that period is often tinged with what if’s and regrets, as to...
Jan Molby was back with a podcast - hosted by Trev Downey - that included two matches, two wins and plenty to talk about.
