The Liverpool manager flew to Baghdad to watch a young Iraqi play football,
he was suitably impressed and arranged for him to go to Anfield.
Two weeks later Liverpool are 4-0 down to Man Utd with only 20 minutes left.
The manager gave the young Iraqi striker the nod and on he went.
The lad is a sensation, scores 5 goals in 20 minutes and wins the game for Liverpool .
The fans are delighted, the players and coaches are delighted and the media love the new star.
When the player gets off the pitch he phoned his mum to tell her about his first day in
English football.
'Hello mum, guess what?' he said 'I played for 20 minutes today, we were 4-0 down
but I scored 5 and we won. Everybody loves me, the fans, the media, they all love me.'
'Wonderful,' says his mum, 'Let me tell you about my day. Your father got shot in the
street and robbed, your sister and I were ambushed, gang raped and beaten and
your brother has joined a gang of looters, and all while you were having such great time.'
The young lad was very upset. 'What can I say mum, but I'm so sorry.'
Sorry?!!! Sorry?!!!' said his mum, 'It's your bloody fault we moved to Liverpool in the first place!
