About the episode
Ok, so the title may be confusing—let us explain … 🤣
So a rat by our terms? Quite simply a footballing nuisance. Never gives their opponent a minute, works their socks off, and is frankly … a pain in the backside to play against.
So with that being said, we have our good friend Dave Watson—former England GK coach and Barnsley player—to help us decide who the best rats in Premier League history are and to create a top 10 list!
This was a fun one, and thank you to everyone on Instagram who sent in their players!
