  1. It feels really awkward in the studio for the BBC. Again, jobs for the boys, just turn up, wear a decent shirt, say a few words and agree with Gary.
  2. I had forgotten all about Mooy. I vaguely remember people (pundits) talking about him being a regular for Manchester City... because he had a few good games for a properly **** Huddersfield .
  3. I agree, I think a lot of these jobs are 'jobs for the boys' and along with that these specific jobs do not even need you to do much homework. I think it is really, unforgivably poor from broadcasters. You can entertain and educate people watching football. You can have genuine insight and constructive conversations about football, but broadcasters choose to give Alan Shearer (he is not the only one) money to sit there and know nothing about foreign football. I think, especially, the BBC should have that option. I remember you could. You could have Five Live commentary too?
  4. You say that, however, I present as evidence Francis Jeffers when he played for Sheffield Wednesday. I do not think he ever tried to score.
  5. I cannot understand how or why they are consistently so unprepared and lack really basic knowledge about anything outside of England (I can hazard a pretty good guess). It would be a dream come true to be paid to watch and talk about football.
  6. There are an awful lot of pundits and commentators who are genuinely rubbish at what they do, lazy, cliche, and outdated views.
  7. I quite like the Australians (in general too) but cannot help but feel France could get a few more here if they can be bothered in the second half, really set themselves up for the rest of the group matches.
  8. I am absolutely living for all the absolute bollocks that Qatar have spouted at every opportunity... and people are now acting surprised . The state of this World Cup.
  9. While I do not mind the idea of having a pundit from each side giving their opinion on the match (as in most pundits talk so much rubbish anyway), but there is no Frenchman in the studio? Did they forget Drogba and Kompany are not French?
  10. I have absolutely no problem adding plenty of time on at the end. You time waste or the game is stopped, add that back on. France look very good, they are such a strong team.
  11. I mean, almost every commentator bemoans the lack of extra time in the face of time wasting and complains that teams 'run the clock down' by time wasting... now FIFA have stamped all over that by adding on plenty of extra time... and they are having a laugh about it. What. Do. They. Want?
  12. Hartson is just rambling at this point, what insight does he provide? What tactical analysis does he provide?
  13. I quite like these teams; the match itself has been so-so as both sides are doing fairly well. Commentators have been quite dull. It's the same vomit that they have spewed for several competitions, and it is just boring (and inaccurate, and dull).
