90s. A scorer on his Premier League debut and of a winning goal at Anfield for Ipswich, it started to go wrong for this midfielder when he was suspended by the FA for three months after traces of cocaine were found in his blood. Three years later, he narrowly avoided a jail term after he was found guilty of driving with three times the legal limit of alcohol in his blood and of failing to stop at the scene of an accident. He was released by Ipswich shortly afterwards and only played four more games in the Football League for some Essex boys before seeing out his time in football on an island in the Thames estuary, but who am I talking about?
