Nedum Onuoha the pundit

I’m sorry to say but Micah is a likeable clown in punditry whereas Nedum offers a balanced and insightful view.
Both have a City bias but only one does so in an intelligent fashion.
BBC are you watching?

Horses for courses.

Nedum's the kind of guy who could replace Carragher next time he assaults a small child. He could anchor Monday Night Football and have 1hr prematch debates with Neville and a big screen. Micah's the kind of guy who could replace Lineker in 5 years.

Football is watched by a broad spectrum, and while I prefer Nedum's calm debate and analysis, other people love Micah making the game fun and winding up some of the pundits who take themselves too seriously.
 
Difference between Nedum and Micah is, I could listen to Nedum for hrs he's that articulate and intelligent, with Micah I've had enough after about 5 minutes.

They are chalk and cheese but I love them both.

How Nedum doesn't have a main gig yet after listening to clowns like Sutton and Savage is beyond me, or even taking it further with mainstream clowns like Linneker and both the Mill's.

Nedums a class act, hopefully his time will come.

Fair play
Both do have charisma but in v different ways
I am super impressed by Ned’s demeanour though...top bloke.
 
Only player I managed to get close to on the pitch in 2012, patted him on the back then Mark Bowen shook my hand and said well done lad. Always loved Nedum.
 
Needs to do his homework a bit better, he got a lot of stuff wrong in the interviews. We written written off in October according to him amongst other gems.

Yes I've disagreed with him a few times.
But he's much preferable to fools like Savage, McPointy and Owen.
 
Ned is 100.000.000 times a better pundit than Micah.
Hes better than Joleon n’all, who last night said “this is Man City’s fifth title in their history” and “City are going for, alright it’s not the treble, not the treble Man United won, but a treble”.

Really boring that whole argument. If we win the CL we have won the treble. It is definitely better to win the FA Cup rather than league cup but no one has ever classified trophies in groups to address the issues of semantics.

But because Rio and that twat on Talksport have made this a thing, the rag media will make sure if we do win the CL it is clear that it isn't really the treble. And they'll also make it out as though winning the Europa League is actually success for a team that started out in the CL but was basically relegated during the competition.

Need our City pundits to stand up to this nonsense not bow to it. Just because Rio might have won more or been a better player doesn't mean his point of view means more. He is a biased prick.
 
Nedum and Micah have both been very good this season. Micah lost he plot a bit calling the trespass at the swamp a “peaceful protest” but I think he got carted away with the narrative from spit and rat boy.

Overall, Micah has championed us Blues with huge passion and sublime wind up skills. Nedum is more articulate than the vast majority of the population and he does himself and us proud.

Micah comes out with some right bollocks. Sometimes he doesn’t even make a comment in relation to what he’s been asked or what the conversation is about.

The other week Souness was saying “would United fans be doing this if they were top of the league and taking a lead into the second leg of a Champions League semi final? No!” And Micah chipped in, half interrupting Souness, with “yeah but the Police must have known about this, why didn’t they do more to stop it?”

I thought, ‘fucking hell Micah, the only sensible comment in three hours and you but-in with that?!’

He’s also said “de Bruyne is one of the top three midfielders in the world, behind Fernandes”.

Micah got away with an extended honeymoon as a pundit because he had tales from the City dressing room about Mario and Kompany’s leadership qualities etc. I agree that he talks some nonsense but overall he’s done a fine job of promoting our club.
