MM is getting to know the Rochdale players that little bit better this season and this week we caught up with Dale’s versatile midfield man Peter Vincenti.
MM: What has been the best moment in your career?
Vincenti: I’d probably say playing at Wembley ranks up there it was in the FA Trophy for Stevenage in 2009 we beat York City 2-0.
MM: What has been the worst moment of your career?
Vincenti: I’ve not had too many, I’ve had a few sendings off like against Bury earlier in the season that was a derby and a big crowd so that was probably one of the worst.
I felt that was harsh it is too easy to book people nowadays my second booking wasn’t a bad tackle it was just a trip!
But in terms of lowest moments I’ve been quite lucky really so probably the sendings off.
MM: Who is the toughest opponent you have ever faced?
Vincenti: Dimitar Berbatov when I played against Man Utd for Aldershot, we just couldn’t get the ball off him! Berbatov was just on another level it was just a joke. They were all good, I tried giving Michael Owen a few kicks but I couldn’t get near him.
MM: What is the best stadium you have ever played at?
Vincenti: I would have to say Wembley.
MM: What do you like to do away from football?
Vincenti: Just relax really, Me and Ollie (Lancashire), Matty (Done), Rosey (Michael Rose) and Hendo (Ian Henderson) go for coffee at the Trafford Centre and just chill out.
I play golf when I can, I play on my Xbox (and) get wound up with Call of Duty and start throwing a few things! So that sort of stuff really.
MM: What was the last song you bought or downloaded?
Vincenti: Probably Paolo Nutini’s new song was the last one I downloaded.
MM: What was the last film you saw?
Vincenti: The Wolf of Wall Street.
MM: And finally if you could go out for a drink with five celebrities, who would you pick?
Vincenti: David Beckham, I wouldn’t mind having a drink with him. Leonardo di Caprio, he’d be alright. Probably Barack Obama that would be quite interesting could have an interesting chat with him about politics. I’m a massive fan of The Killers so I’d have Brandon Flowers in there and I’m going to put a bird in there for a bit of eye candy.
(Pauses for several seconds) It’s hard, I want somebody who’s got a bit about them and who’s got a bit of banter but you don’t know them do you?
I’ll go for Nicole Scherzinger she’d have a few stories I reckon she’d down a pint and she’d be a laugh I think.
