Part of my point, mate. Mine was more to do with him being willing to say anything that will get him booked on. He rarely says anything insightful or interesting. He is among the “give me the script” pseudo pundits meant to just appeal to the kids that want sound bites from a ex-player creating viral TikTok dances.

He represents one of the elements of modern football coverage that I dislike.

Thought on the whole the coverage was much better than usual. Not much city bingo, Joe Cole I like perceptive worth a listen and the woman Lucy Ward I think also good

TnT sports journalist to Pep.

"100 goals for De Bruyne. Is that why you was blowing kisses at him?"

No you dickhead, if you did your homework and concentrated on your job, you'd realise his 1st was his 99th.

Fuckin amateurs.

Only 2 utd fans on the Chris Sutton prediction article on the balanced bbc this week!! Not even subtle anymore.

We are second, because of goal difference.

If we end the season on same points and less goals we won't be joint champs so we ain't joint top in my eyes

we laught at rags saying they were joint top in 11/12 after all

I think that was kinda the point, when we've been top on goal difference in the past the media have labeled Arsenal/Liverpool as being "joint top"

How’s this for pettiness. Was in Waterstones yesterday looking at City books, saw Conn’s and Schindlers on the shelf so I covered them up with Colin Bell books.

Pair of wankers.

Pettiness? It’s expected of you.
-1 from your Bert score there.
As you were.
WTFAMu.
CTID.

I got what you meant. I have lost count the amount of times the media have said Liverpool were joint top with us but behind on goal difference.

Don't forget that between us and Liverpool we've won 6 of the last 7 premier leagues.
That one was used quite often by the pricks in the media.
