England football legend Paul Gascoigne has blamed his premature exit from Sky Sports' TV show Soccer AM on Saturday morning on sleeping pills. After Gascoigne leaving the show midway, host John Fendley told viewers that the former footballer was "not feeling wonderful".

Gazza, 51, as he is fondly known, has had a history of drinking problems because of which some of his social media followers blamed the exit on alcohol. However, he clarified that it was not due to alcohol but because of his consumption of sleeping pills.
