It's incredible the number of bobbles and good fortune he had to get that ball to the Chelsea 18-yard box and then score.

I always liked him & his passion ... I think we treated him very badly

I think he asked to go as he wanted more playing time, it was his decision rather than the club's - in fact he says he made a mistake in leaving.

I initially did too, but it looks like it was Beckford's decision.

"When I was at Leeds, I played around 50 games that season, starting. Then I came to Everton, a completely different team, manager, everything, and I played around half of that.

"I had the bug to play and was told I wasn't necessarily going to play as many minutes as I had done that season. I had a very, very difficult decision to make and it's one I always look back on and think I should have stayed.
