I admire Tony Adams.

This man just oozes courage.. On the pitch and off the pitch!

Massive Celtic fan myself, right from early 80's , never heard of tony Adams as I grew up in Ireland through the hard times. As A hoops fan I Traveled to a game with a bunch of Irish Man U fans to old Trafford for kids of hardship. not going to lie had nothing for either club, to cut it short United went one up, but all game I kept asking who's the big lump for Arsenal at the back, got strange looks lol Manc lent forward and said he's called Tony Adams, Sitting in the wrong seat lol I said well he's one fucking cracking defender, he's barley put a foot wrong all game, Near the end big T scored a cracking header from a corner to make it one all, He stood out all game you would need to have ben blind to see it. Top class defender . Respect.

Top top top player. World class the term is. Also a fantastic human being. What a man. Fair play Tony. My all the idol. Love you big man 👍.

really great. above and beyond football, Tony Adams is a legend. I'm a Man United fan by the way.

We all make mistakes and do bad things, but I have the utmost admiration for those that admit to them and work to change them. Good luck to you Tony

As a huge arsenal fan as a kid, I remember hearing about issues with Tony and alcohol. I remember not really understanding but wondering if this made him a bad person. When I see this now as an adult its incredibly powerful to reflect on. Fantastic work Tony

Well done Tony Adams

Great interview. His autobiography is very different to other footballers’ memoirs, because it isn’t just the chronologising of his career. It also charts his descent into, and recovery from alcoholism. You don’t have to be alcoholic or a football fan to find it inspiring either. Alcoholics can read his book, recognise some of the symptoms and think; “ that’s me, that’s what I’m doing to my family and friends, I need help. “ They can read his book and think; “ if I hold out a hand and ask for help, I can then get it, and AA and such places are really helpful and supportive. “ And they can read the chapter called My Name Is Tony, and think; “ this is what’s in store for me once I start asking for help and getting it. “ If you’re alcoholic or any other type of addict, please go and get help, it’ll be the biggest and bravest thing you’ll ever do.

Should make a movie about him.

Legend and one of my top heros.

Great player who l always admired despite being a Chelsea fan. Glad you are happy big man.

This geezer is the bollocks. Different class.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Love him, great great player, awsome guy. Wish him all the best for the future

wish he was still on the pitch

God bless him. Takes a brave soul to come out and own all that & use that awareness to help others too. Really pleased for him.

Respect this Tony. Your words are very significant for a man considering giving up the drink.

Loved watching this Colossus play, so glad you are getting where you should be , keep going mate.

Thanks Tony, glad you're here...

Adams..when i was 14 i saw my younger bro watching a football match on telly and asked him what is the team he fancys..he said Arsenal..one look at Tony and yup there is an inspiration and admiration for me to excels above any obstacles..and to love Arsenal & enjoy watching some of the greatest matches ever till the day he retires along with his famous back 5..🤗

Good for him.

Good man

You can see the pain in his eyes.

Legend on and off the pitch. Glad you're well big man.

Brilliant bloke!

Total respect for this good man.

Legend ❤ Fair play to him 👏

Well done Tony loved your story fair play to you fella

Sir Tony Adams!!

So glad to see your doing well ♥️

Beautiful Story

Legend. Great man.

Great guy who has conquered many demons. His book “Addicted” his highly recommended. I’d also recommend Paul Merson’s book.

Don’t underestimate what an achievement 22 years (& counting) without a drop of alcohol is for a former alcoholic. This man is a true hero.

Huge respect 💥

Absolute LEGEND

Absolute legend massive respect for you my friend

A great great man

inspiring 💜

Read the first chapter of Addicted. Honest, brutal possibly but not something you would normally encounter in a footballer''s autobiography.

A fine human bring.

Legend ❤️

What a Legend. Then I see Gazza and it’s just sad.

Has way more than 22 England caps. Try 66.

Mr Arsenal, I love him. From a lifelong Liver bird.

There’s a reason why this man has a statue outside the ground . He’s on the Mount Rushmore of arsenal players 👏TA6

True gooner

There's a couple of questions I would really like to know the answers too. 1. Why wasn't he at the final game at Highbury, when a lot of ex players were? 2. Why didn't he play in play In Martin Keown's testimonial, when he could've played for either Arsenal or England?

He’s suffered some real lows trying to get his coaching career off the ground. The temptation to drink must’ve been immense

He has 66 England Caps not 22.

The service he gave to the gunners you'd think he would have a job for life with them
