Rhys Williams on his Liverpool roller coaster

Rhys Williams tells Sky Sports EFL Editor Simeon Gholam about his experience being thrust into first-team action after an injury crisis at Liverpool.

“For the fans it was definitely the win at Old Trafford,” Rhys Williams tells Sky Sports, as he reflects on the best moments from that crazy period at Liverpool.

“But on a personal note, I’d say playing against Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son on my Premier League debut at Tottenham and winning there.

“That year for me was just dream after dream come true. Things always come up on my phone as a reminder, like the Champions League win at Atalanta.

How strange but refreshing time for Bonner prepared him for life after Cambridge

“I found it really difficult to begin with because I didn’t want to leave and I didn’t feel I should have left,” Gillingham boss Mark Bonner tells Sky Sports of his departure from previous club Cambridge United.

“From being all in somewhere every day for more than a decade, to waking up the next day, not having to think about it and having no responsibilities for anything was really strange. It took me a bit of time to adjust.”
