Nedum Onuoha the pundit

[Bigga]

He could have been very bitter after what Gary Cook said about his Mam, but I don’t recollect him bad mouthing City at all only heard him saying good things about us.

Shame about the sordid period people defended Cook over the email.

They should hang their collective heads in utter shame about that time and they'll know who they are.

Yes. Sarah Lancashire and Shobna Gulati were at the girl's school when my sister was there. Brian Cox was in the 6th form while I was there. Andy Kershaw was a student there too.

I think I probably pre-dated you by many years, I left in 1972

Always nice to converse with young people

I thought he was great on the TV,
Hope to see more of him.

An articulate and very pleasant lad. And one of ours. Hope those attributes don’t count against him.

 

[Wafty Cranker]

Pep would have loved Nedum at the back. His speed and intelligence would be used to its full potential.

It was great seeing him on Tele. Hope he gets more pundit jobs.

Ha ha. Think you’re kidding yourself a bit there. Nedum was a good athlete, and showed promise early doors, but then went backwards.

Severely lacking in the technical ability required to get near a Pep team.

Nedum is very assured when he does punditry. Quite a lot of ex-players try their hand at it and with all the televised games during the pandemic, there's plenty of work to go round. How and when the demand for pundits will change is unclear but Ned might make a longer-term go of it if his smarts and manner can make him a match for those with a bit more of a name in the game in the eyes of programmers.

I hope we get to see him cover more City games.

 

[SatOnTheWall]

I'd like to see him working within the game in some capacity. Maybe even at City.

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

Thought he was good, and Sidewalk too. Was like a breath of fresh air in that there was no edge to either and they talked seriously about the game.
Nedum's podcast is well worth a listen.
At this stage, he is a lot better than Micah
