"I don't really remember it [his winning goal]. Swivel, hit and then hope. Celebrate. It's all a bit of a blur. It's just instinct, get whatever contact you can, and there are that many bodies, anything can happen."

Rio Ferdinand, Mark Viduka, Jason Wilcox, even former manager David O'Leary were among those alerted to new messages in their Leeds United WhatsApp group last month.
