It is not clear how much contact there was between the pair, as they sat a fair distance apart throughout the game. Paper Round’s view: It’s not worth assuming too much, given Ashton and Pochettino would have simply met in private had they been negotiating for a deal in the summer.

Danny Welbeck's introduction in the second half did provide them with some pace and quality in the final third but it was too little too late. Welbeck wriggled into several promising positions and forced Kepa Arrizabalaga into a superb save late on, but it was one of very few moments that would have excited any Watford supporters watching at home.

But 14 years on, and as the video has gone viral again, there appears to be no hard feelings. Gerrard, now manager of Rangers, mentioned the incident in his autobiography and said it was the only time he smiled in the tunnel before kick-off.
