About this listen

Eric Steele was Manchester United goalkeeping coach for five years under Sir Alex Ferguson. Talk of the Devils is delighted to welcome him to our studio for a wide-ranging discussion with a man who has coached some of the best goalkeepers in football.

From his own slightly unorthodox arrival at the club to the scouting, transfer, and management of David de Gea as Edwin van der Sar's replacement, he oversaw a fascinating time for keepers at Old Trafford.

He also worked alongside current interim head coach Michael Carrick, of course, and was a colleague of Carrick's assistant, Steve Holland, in the England setup. There's a strong Geordie connection with Carrick as well, and many more stories from an incredible career in the game.


Keep an eye on our instagram feed if you want to see the team try and answer Eric's quiz question.
