My point was that he was often too far forward with our play. Good refs follow the play. He was preempting the play and taking up his position too early. It might just be his style, but annoying either way.

Lee Mason is the absolute worst at this. Too fat and slow to get out of the way

£1.2 million from Wolves IIRC. Stood next to him in The Little B in Sale one night, him and that other £1million one from Norwich, cant remember his name at the mo.

Kevin Reeves?

He always commentates fairly on our game and is genuinely excited when we score.

Miles better than Tyler. He actually commentates on the game rather than drones on like a golf club bore after his fifth G&T

The closer he gets to the opposition's penalty area the better he gets. He's stifled in a double-pivot or with a lot of defensive duties but get him up the pitch and he's a helluva player.

When we’re playing a team that presses hard we need the double pivot because otherwise it’s too easy to block of the pass out of defence to the single pivot. It didn’t surprise me to see Gundog playing in a double pivot. His ball use and retention is exceptional. He makes it easier for us to pass through a high press.

And sounds like he really enjoys the game of football appreciating great play whoever it is by.

Time to change the batteries.

Ian Ladyman in his match report reckons Man U need a centre back, holding midfielder and two new full backs. Between them, Fred, Maguire, Lindelof, Shaw and Wan Bissaka cost best part of 250 million quid ... that's some recruitment system they've perfected, pretty sure Liverpool won't bother hacking into that!

Add another 70m for Bailly, Jones and Rojo
