Media discussion - 2024/25

[chesterbells]

I’ve been watching Barrow V Derby on Sky Sports +

It’s a shit game and the stream isn’t particularly great either.

But there’s just a commentator on his own, with no co- comms. Every time the ball flies 10 yards over the bar, I’m bracing myself for Keown or Dixon to pipe up with, “He’ll be disappointed with that.”

But nothing. Just silence. Heaven.

Less is more.

It's started already.

They should be asking if he could be the casemiro they thought they had bought 2 years ago!!

Then you've got the old faithful "How can he (a winger) be offside there, he's looking right across the line"?

My favourite at the moment is:

Penalty scored: ‘Never in doubt’
Penalty missed: ‘Never looked confident’

I’m just praying for the day when as they’re preparing to take one, the main commentator says, “Ok captain hindsight, is this one never in doubt or not looking confident? “

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

He’s just an enforcer with no technical ability of any sort. More likely to spend a few games on suspension

So he's not going be unlocking Pogba then?

Where’s that Danish striker they have who was supposed to be the next Haaland? There obsession with trying to emulate City is crippling them, long may it happen.

Not even a scouser could pick that lock.

Don't think it's so bad that the media are now using our players as the benchmark ?
Think most rational pundits see that Rodri & Harland as the current best in (at least the Premier League) their respective positions ?
If they want to put pressure on the new MUFC wonder signing, then let them.
It does rankle though that the media seldom review the car crash signings that the Trafford Tramps have made in the last 12 years...

To be fair he can and shouldn't be offside.

Got there just before me ha!

We all know that already.
