Don't like the bloke at all, but he's absolutely spot on there like. Same goes for Andy Townsend and Robbie Earle, both nothing players commenting on what players competing in the Champions League could have done better.

 

Really? We might as well close all Football forums then because we'll never be as good a player as Gouffran or Obertan, or as good a manager as Pardew or Souness, etc. Doesn't mean we can't have an opinion either way on them like. :lol:

 

It's different saying it on a forum or in a pub compared to saying it in front of the nation.

Some of the brightest minds and best analysts across all sports never played the game. It's a ridiculous opinion, although not surprising coming from a scumbag who must know he's past it but has to puff out his chest a bit more.

Completely agree with some of that but I think there's a clear divide between critics and ex-pros. Generally ex-pros are there only for that reason and don't add any insight. I think that mixed with Beren's excellent point about the nature of the criticism is why I think it's fair enough.

Danny Kelly is a presenter but when he talks about football he's an amazing pundit with great knowledge across the whole range of football subjects, I hate the fact that you have to play football in the premier league to be qualified as a pundit.

 

Sky have some pundits that can't even put a coherent sentance together, Terry is totally correct to dismiss the critical comments from Savage

Benzema seems to be a slightly smarter version of Nile Ranger. How many times has he been arrested for stuff already? He's got a looong rap sheet of driving offences both in Spain and France, plus that underage prostitute thing and now this.

 

To me, Benzema comes across as a dumb fuck and that perception was formed from an interview that he did in a language that I didn't even know.

Everything I've read says he hasnt been arrested, just in for questioning

Spanish media are all running with "arrest", but they love a good sensationalistic headline.

 

One has to take into account that the niche that The Sun fills in the UK, is filled by sports rags in Spain.
