The show's host Stephanie Brantz caught up with Cahill in the UK recently and says he gave the show an all-areas-access to his life in the UK. And in an unplanned surprise, he even invited the crew to his place for a chat.

Brantz says Cahill believes he can play on for the green and gold for many years to come.

"We did a sort of behind the scenes with Timmy for the show.  We went to a kind of country pub but he then invited us to his home which was a real treat," she told au.fourfourtwo.com.

In the show, Cahill also discusses his junior academy in Dubai for under-privileged kids, John Aloisi's return to the A-League and the "exceptional" quality of teams in Australia's AFC World Cup qualification group.

"He said with the way he is looking after his body he can go on till he's 40. Even if he just goes on till the 2014 World Cup that would still be awesome news for the Socceroos," Brantz said.

Cahill was once again the destroyer for the Socceroos yesterday morning with two first half goals in a comprehensive 3-0 win over Republic of Ireland in the friendly in Limerick.

Football Stars of Tomorrow airs this Sunday at 2pm on Channel Nine. It's the final episode of the current series. The show combines features on the biggest names in the game with the grassroots of Australian football.

"The show has been really well received," said Brantz, herself a mad-keen football fan and sports presenter on the network.

This series has seen high profile Socceroos such as Harry Kewell and Mark Schwarzer also appear over the last two months.

"With the lead up to the World Cup, there is increasing interest in seeing football on free to air TV," added Brantz. "And Football NSW has been very supportive."

After Sunday's episode, the program will be re-broadcast from the first episode on Foxtel's Fox Sports Wednesdays and Fridays at 4.30pm. For more on Football Stars of Tomorrow, log onto www.fstars.com.au.
