Caulker: Rehab at 19, betting & blackouts, unimpressed by Pirlo

Steven Caulker insists he enjoyed his six months at Dundee but also admits he can't recall some it.

Having played in the English top flight with Tottenham Hotspur, Swansea City, Cardiff City, Queens Park Rangers, Southampton and Liverpool, it was a surprise to find the centre-half turning up at Dens Park in February 2018.

He scored on his debut and went on to make 17 appearances, with form good enough to attract a rejected bid from Rosenborg in Norway.

However, he says: "I’d lost myself at the age of 25, 26," recounting his struggles with gambling and alcohol addictions.
