Former Reds-legend, Peter Schmeichel, has been fired from his job as a host for Champions League television program on the danish TV-station TV3+. According to various former colleagues it was very difficult to work with Schmeichel, his ego was huge and he was very preoccupied with himself. "He has grown as a TV person, but never reached into the hearts of television viewers," said one colleague.
Schmeichel was enormously demanding and critical towards people he worked with, and was in various conflicts with his supervisors.
Schmeichel was of course arguably considered one of the best goalkeeper of all time to ever wear the United shirt. Aside from all of the titles he won with ManUnited, he was in the Danish national team that very surprisingly won the European Championships in 1992.
Well well Peter: To us that indeed consider you as one of the all time greats, this comes as a no surprise:-) One character skill that works well when guarding the goal for our great club, is not necessarily one that benefits you in other "common" jobs...
Doesn't surprise me at all...
