Most annoying football cliche?

When they say "if we would have converted that opportunity we,d have taken all 3 points"
How do you know. the whole dynamics of the game would have been totally different from that point on. ie restart at centre circle rather than a goal kick and so on.......

"It could not have been a penalty because he had lost control of the ball" crass remark on MOTD last week. A penalty can be awarded if the GK punches an opponent even if the ball is at the other end.

When they talk about strikers "being in the right place at the right time"

What...in the penalty area?!

"They were outfought and out-thought."

Don't think I've ever heard a pundit say one without immediately following it up with the other.

“The big X clubs” where X is high enough to contain the rag’s and dipper’s current league position. Please one day let me read about the “big 20”.

Commentators saying “He’s just letting him know that he’s there” as a defender goes straight through the back of a City player

 

[Koniec]

To be fair

He couldn’t have come closer

Anything emitting from Keowns mouth.

It's a game of two halves.
