Gonna miss you Maxi. A great man. Such an important part of a special time at the club.Never once turned down any of the strikers for extra shooting practice no matter how hard you had been training in any kind of weather. Always put the team first. Rest in peace my friend😢â¤ï¸ https://t.co/XwyRKvJqmY

Hopefully it won't last long ðŸ™#LoveLords | #ENGvNZ pic.twitter.com/mLqj0578mM

Fond memories of my early career days when I got this scooter as an acknowledgment of my talent. It was a great luxury as compared to walking or on some lucky days cycling for miles to reach the practise stadium in the wee hours. pic.twitter.com/GNH9wYlGlr
