Dont know about Harsh Daz,Footballers have never been renowned for being the Brightest Buttons in the box,especially having been sheltered from the real world and having people sort out their everyday lives for them.
As your Backstreet Mancs,or Scousers whatever,think Mike Milligan,Nobby Styles,Nick Henry,Ryan Giggs,Wayne Rooney,
Paul Merson,Steve Gerrard,David Batty etc.
