Summary
Join us for the first of a two-part Ramble Meets… special, as Luke sits down with former Liverpool, Fulham and England midfielder Danny Murphy!
In part one, Danny reminisces about his journey from cleaning the first team's boots at Crewe when he was 16 to moving to Liverpool and establishing himself in the first-team squad. From thinking he was the victim of a wind-up when Kenny Dalglish first phoned him, to struggling with believing in himself after he moved from impressing at Crewe to training alongside some of the country’s best players, Danny leaves no stone unturned in a fascinating and revealing interview.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Ramble Meets. This is part one of my chat with Danny Murphy. |
| 0:05.4 | I know they're not usually separated into two parts but this episode is a little bit different |
| 0:10.0 | chiefly because Danny and I chated for so long. I didn't think it was reasonable to expect you |
| 0:15.1 | to sit for an hour and ten minutes in one go so we split it into two. Obviously we recorded this |
| 0:20.8 | during lockdown so you might hear a bit of background noise. Danny is isolating with his family |
| 0:25.4 | at the moment and kindly gave up his time just after he'd finished a bit of homeschooling with |
| 0:30.1 | his son. So you might hear a bit of background of his family and his household. Without further |
| 0:36.0 | nonsense from me though, let's get into it. This is Ramble Meets Danny Murphy. |
| 0:46.1 | Let's start off at the beginning then. What are your memories as a young child of football? When |
| 0:50.4 | did it all start for you? Very, very young. Very young for me. I had three older brothers who were |
| 0:59.2 | all county level players and they all look football and they were younger. Probably not so |
| 1:06.7 | the intensity I did. One of them, maybe the next one up three is older than me, poor he did but the |
| 1:12.0 | other two were good at it but it wasn't the be all in the end or but from day dot I can't remember |
| 1:18.0 | ever wanting to do anything else. I've been going out and playing football. The area I lived at a |
| 1:26.6 | local playing field where a lot of the lads used to meet and we used to go there basically to |
| 1:32.7 | they got dark every night. We were, it sounds bad parents and that, don't it? That's just the way it was. |
| 1:41.6 | But yeah, so I started playing with my brother and his mates which ultimately toughen me up quite |
| 1:47.4 | quickly. I think the natural ability part of it was just there. I talk about this a lot and I have |
| 1:57.7 | repeated myself on this but I do believe that a lot of it is just within you. It's there. |
| 2:04.8 | I never got coached out of a ping-a-pull outside of the right for bendable beat a man whatever it was. |
| 2:13.2 | The passes, seeing the pictures, you see the pictures or you don't I think and I was given a gift |
| 2:19.6 | because I was comfortable with the older boys and I didn't really have to apply myself properly in |
