Former England captain headed out to Abingdon, Oxfordshire to see Roberts, who is a Liverpool fan. He was put forward by charity Age UK - formerly called Age Concern. After being told he would be getting a call around 10.15am, the 70-year-old was greeted by Manchester United legend at his front door. Maintaining the social distance, the 44-year-old former footballer was standing in Robarts’ garden. Roberts told the Oxford Mail: "David was at my door right on time. All I could think to say was, 'Hello, how are you?' "He is a lovely guy, we chatted about what will happen to this season’s football, Manchester United and also me being a Liverpool supporter. "He also gave a goody bag to me and my family." The former Real Madrid star is self-isolating with his family in the nearby Cotswolds.
