Graeme Souness has some special words for his former Scotland teammate.
Scots legend Graeme Souness has asked people to say prayers for Alan Hansen after he was admitted to hospital with a serious illness.
"I'm telling you now, he's a real human being. It's hard to find a bad word about him. He's a rascal when it comes to humour, he was very smart with that. Souness was a pundit for Scotland's clash with Germany on Friday night and he added on ITV Sport: “Listen, I had the pleasure of playing with him, he was an absolute dream for a midfield player. He passed the ball at the right weight at the right time from the right angle.
“He’s a strange breed because I think you’d have to search long, long way to find anyone to say a bad word about him. That takes some doing and his chat and his chat and his banter was top class, he was just a pleasure to be around.Hansen and Souness were also at Liverpool together between 1978 and 1984. The Scots duo had 974 appearances between them for the Merseyside outfit - winning five league titles, four league cups and three European Cups together.
