Football Pundits

Roberto Martinez was on the Monday night football the other day, and his knowledge and insight into the game was great, i enjoy watching gary Neville as well

Yeah I agree l, other than Carragher and Neville on MNF, none give you any insightful views into the game, it's just ridiculous opinions.

 

[The perfect fumble]

A couple of weeks back I was listening to 606 with Ian Wright.

Wright was banging on about lack of investment at Everton and how this would force them to sell Stones to Chelsea. An Everton fan phoned in, a well spoken, clearly a well educated guy and had to explain three times to Wright how this was not the case. How Everton was a well run club, with little or no debt to speak of, they were not desperate for an injection of cash to keep the lights on or pay wages, nor where they owned by leeches desperate to trouser any incoming cash. The money they would have received from selling Stones was a drop in the ocean to the long term financial investment necessary to take Everton to the next level.

As Everton were not desperate for the cash generated from a Stones sale and his absence would dent even the limited ambitions the club has under Kenwright, he predicted they wouldn't sell, now, a few weeks later we know he was correct.

Wright, could not get his head round this and became increasingly vociferous in repeating the same mantra, Everton needed investment, therefore they had to sell Stones and they were only banging on about not selling him to elevate the price. Even when the caller had been cut off he kept returning to it (something idiots do when a little voice in their head keeps repeating "You're Wrong!").

Wright even resorted to saying something along the lines that the caller did not know what he was talking about.

 

[its a Barm]

There are a few who are very good Neville is one, but at the end of the day most are just football fans like us may of been great players but that does not mean they know any more about it then us fans, choose who to listen to and believe. Simples .

Palace A+ lol.

Any money Pardew would swap if he could.

I may be a little bit bias, but trying to stay as neutral as possible I think we have had a fantastic window. Arguably the best in the league, but time will tell. Wickham worries me, but Cabaye, Sakho and Mccarthy look like great signings. Bamford is up in the air.

Just seen some of Soccer Saturday and they have the ex-Brentford goalkeeper Richard Lee on the panel, he looks very promising.

Carragher sounds like a dolphin trying to recite the alphabet.

Carragher sounds like a dolphin trying to recite the alphabet.

that he does, but when I watch him and Neville I do actually come away thinking I know a little more about the intricacies of the game than I did before, most of the others seem to tell us info that would only be useful if we had no eyes

"Chicken tonight" is Wright's intellectual ceiling.

 

[Yates]

Carragher and Neville duo keep me watching before and after any game shown, if it's a combination of anyone else, I won't watch. Souness can be quite brutal, that it's funny but still don't rate him.

 

[Tricky Dickys Right Foot Shot]

Funny thing is the editors for the papers are too interested in what player makes what a week yet never mention the massive wage the likes of Merson, Thompson, Henry and Owen get for spouting nonsense, at least footballers are doing something productive where as most pundits offer very little to the football world.

Anyone with a basic knowledge of football could be a pundit where as to be a top league footballer you have to be on an athlete's level.
