As part of the Off the Ball Roadshow in Vicar St tonight, Joe and Colm were joined on stage by Liverpool hero Gary McAllister thanks to Carlsberg's Join The Greats campaign.
At 35, Liverpool under Gerard Houllier, signed him for a two year spell.
He spoke to Joe and Colm about how the reaction to his Liverpool signing by the local press inspired him on to such a successful spell at Anfield.
The Scot gave praise to Robbie Keane and mentioned how his partnership with the Irish striker at Coventry may have helped get his move to Liverpool.
McAllister admitted he moved to Coventry solely for the money, but moving to Liverpool was made very easy because he "wanted to play for Liverpool".
The younger generation of Gerrard, Carragher and Owen were used as "an inspiration" by McAllister who claimed on stage that playing with players of that calibre motivated the Scot to win more trophies.
