BBC Radio 5 Live - You'll Never Beat Kyle Walker, Defoe & Deeney Football Firsts: First Transfer

Jermain and Troy are back for season two and kick off by looking at their first transfers

Jermain and Troy are back for season two and kick off by looking back at their first transfers: from signing contracts in a motorway service station to Gareth Bale sulks.

Jermain and Troy are back for season two of Football Firsts and kick it all off by looking back at their first transfers. Jermain discusses his move from West Ham to Spurs and how it really went down, whilst Troy admits he had no idea where Watford was when they came in for him. 

The pair look at the benefits of leaving on a free, what happens when you hand in a transfer request, and how it came to pass that Troy signed his contract for the Hornets in a service station car park just off the M25. And Jermain looks back on the Gareth Bale deal that sent the Welshman to Real Madrid and what happens to the team dynamic when a player wants out. 

And to wrap it all up, the boys discuss how much they would be worth in the current transfer market if they were in their respective primes.
