I'm used to the scouse accent, but even I have to listen with the full concentration of a safe-cracker and then half guess the rest of what he's going on about.

Christ knows how anyone South of Chester or Crewe is gonna understand a word. He makes Adebayor sound like Stephen Fry.


I live in Kensington right on the Edge of Anfield and Everton, its proper ruff and common round here. No one though and I do mean no one sounds as common as Carragher. I'm sure he's just taking the piss and laying it on.

Terrible accent, however I'm sure the decision was made on his analysis capabilities and knowledge of the game. I've fucked the Euro's off in favour of cleaning my microwave this year, but i've heard him on talksport quite alot and his knowledge of the game is decent.

It's like Neville though too. Another one who's knowledge and punditry is excellent, but the downside is he has a dreary, pie-eating, stupid fucking accent from Bury.

Carragher is a 'Professional Scouser' read any of his interviews and his favourite actor will be a scouser, his favourite place is Liverpool, his favourite food is Scouse etc etc etc. Can't stand the bloke!

So would I be right in assuming that Carragher's favourite things are:
Film: Letter to Brezchnev
TV Show: Brookie
Actor: Barry & Terry off Brookie
Actress: Margi Claaaaarkk
Body part: eeeeeeaaar
Place to live: The Dingle
Food: pan o' Scouse or dead cat
Dog: illegal pitbull called Shanks

I can go with dat laaaar.

I genuinely find it hard to hear what a lot of ITV's guys are saying. Can't understand Carra, Keane or Strachan, and my eyes glaze over when Southgate and Chiles speak.

Funny how he was going on at the start about how he'd play Jagielka instead of Lescott then Lescott went and scored.

Did you have subtitles on? I can not understand a word he says.
Sounds like a cat being put through a mangle.

Funnily enough Mark Lawrenson said the same thing about Lescott yesterday with the additional words "he`s prone to making errors in every match"
The ***** obvioulsy not seen much of Citys performances last season and proved he knows Jack Shit.
Thought he had a great game yesterday,as did Terry.

After reading some of the extracts of his book, and what he said about how great it was to have average English players playing for Liverpool last season, I've come to the conclusion he is a lunatic, and a typical little Englander, who's afraid of leaving his comfort zone. I don't know who's idea it was to make him a pundit, its made ITV's football coverage sink to an even greater low. I lived in Liverpool for a few years, and have been around some, lets just say, very "common areas" and I've honestly never heard anyone speak with a scouse accent anywhere near as strong as Carragher's. I'm under the impression he exaggerates it to 'prove' he's some kind of quintessential Liverpudlian. Next he'll be wearing a curly wig, and wearing a fake moustache.
