BBC presenter Dan Walker has revealed that he still thinks about his last conversation with Leeds United legend Gary Speed.
The BBC Breakfast presenter appeared live on Football Focus alongside Speed and former Whites teammate Gary McAllister in 2011. Just a few hours after the show, Speed took his own life at the age of just 42.
The then Wales manager left behind his wife Louise and two young children and Walker has admitted that he can still recall "every word" that Speed said to him on that fateful day.
As reported by The Mirror, Walker said that he still thinks about whether he missed any hints on that morning.
Speaking on the Headliners podcast he said: "Could I have said something to him that day? "Now, was I a good enough friend to him, could I have spotted something?
"And I've been through every conversation, virtually every word, I can remember verbatim what we spoke about on that Saturday.
"The final thing he said to me was, he was talking in detail about all the games that Wales had coming up and what tactics he was going to play in those tournament qualifiers.
"And he spoke about his children and he asked me about my children, which is what he always did, he always asked people about what was going on in your life, he was interested in other people.
"And I've been through every word that he said that day and the same with Gary McAllister and we've wondered as friends could we have done something or was there something we could have seen or something we could have predicted.
"And it does, it eats you up a bit.
"But I feel far more concerned for his two boys and I feel so happy that, they're never going to be in a great place because they've lost their dad, but they're in a really positive place and they are looking forward to living their lives to the full."
Speed's two sons, Ed and Tommy, recently spoke for the first time about their father's tragic death.
The pair admitted to still being 'baffled' by the events that led to their dad's suicide, adding he had the "perfect life".
"Dad had the perfect life," said Tommy. "But something was going on, or something happened and, for whatever reason, he didn't look for help."
