Well he has reportedly suffered from some mental problems since as well

very sad (links in with his weight gain) which is why I was so f**king happy in 2002 when he won it, scoring 2 goals in the final. I got the feeling he had that stupid haircut to distract away from other things. And yes - the pressure and expectation he must have been under in 1998 was incredible.
