This won't be popular but the only pundits I think are worth listening to are Souness and Neville. Souness has been a player, manager and although he is grumpy you know that he is telling you what he thinks from experience and I don't find him biased, although others may do.

When I heard Neville was going to be a pundit, my blood boiled. We've enough reds on the TV and don't need any more but he is superb. He laughs at himself and analyses the games in a neutral way. He's a guy who's also got good insight and I never thought I would say that about him.

I like Micah, he's a blue, but I'd prefer it if sometimes he wasn't the clown and just told us what it's really like. The lad made his debut very early, had a lot on his shoulders at his age, played for England early etc. He's got enough experience to be able to talk about it rather than trying to be the clown. Winding Keane up is fun, but after a while it distracts from what he should be doing - talking about the game and using his experiences to explain it to us.

Generally I agree but I think below Neville and Souness are a group including Keown, Jenas, Murphy and Osman who can be annoying but are much better than the rest.

Zab was on Dazn at the weekend, remotely, however, looked fresh as a daisy.... he’s enjoying his retirement before coming back to the club next year, which is his home!

I can see why non-City fans could be irritated by him. He can come across as overbearing (some might call it larger than life). Me? I can take him or leave him. If we're talking ex-blues, I find Lescott a better pundit. Or Nigel, though he's mainly on Bein. Or Dunney.

@jimharri ...well of course you would find Dunney a good pundit. He is the legend, he is the best at everything (please don't mention own goals.) Dunney Monster is a true Blue. :-)

He was on with Richard Keys and Nigel De Jong on , I think, Bein TV at the weekend - middle eastern sports channel.
Zabba was great.

 

[sir baconface]

is he really any worse than Owen, Ferdinand, Hoddle, Francis etc?

Kinell. Are they the benchmarks?

I wish someone would remind him to stop calling us Man City all the time. Even Tierney referred to us as City in his interview.

Conflicted.

on the one hand, Micah, Joleon, Barry are very good. But I don’t want happy clappers, regardless of how good they are.

all I want is neutral. I mean how hard is it to supply that?
