joeyt Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Nobody's mentioned the worst one. Conversation on 5Live just now: Steve Crossman: I'd written down the word 'ominous' as John Murray said it after 8 minutes, do you think Mikel Arteta will be quite happy to be 1-0 down at the break given the start Man City made? Karen Carney: Ooh I dunno, I don't even know what that word means, I can't even pronounce it. She's thick as a whale omelette. You're right but apparently we're not allowed to say that, as any criticism at all MUST mean people are sexist. Well that's not true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 It's not true but the online reaction to Karen Carney criticisms has been like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 I think it was the fact Leeds hung her out to dry on Twitter for just having an opinion. They should have known the trolls would be horrendous to her Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Carney is too stale. anyone can say whay she is paid to say. Wonder why she is the chosen one of the media compared to her other former team mates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toon25 Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 She pretty much repeats what the lead the commentator says. Thick as pig shit and should be called out for being so. Much like Sutton/Savage and co. Agree on Keown. Articulate and knowledgable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted February 21, 2021 Share Posted February 21, 2021 Sutton is occasionally passable when he talks in depth but the him and Savage contrarian-off/must give a definite set in stone opinion on BT is genuinely horrific. Horrible voices too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I like Martin Keown a lot these days. Always thought Lee Dixon was good too. Wright and Shearer are obviously sound and I can just about get away with Carragher and Neville providing they're talking about anything other than Newcastle. Find Micah Richards tedious and think Jenas talks quite a bit of shite. Find Alex Scott talks out of her arse a lot n'all tbh. Feel like Hansen was one of the very best and would still be totally relevant and good to listen to now, unlike his geriatric mate they - for some reason - still wheel out from time to time. Not really a pundit but I think Dan Walker is great and Mark Clemmit is a bit of a legend; his features on Football Focus about the Football League are invariably my favourite bits. I've a lot of time for Hinchcliffe but that view might be skewed by his content on Set Piece Menu; he does cracks me up, like - I was pissing myself at his hypothetical rant a few weeks back, about recommending to Pep Guardiola that ManC should punt it out for a throw-in straight from kick off. Just catching up on the Spurs highlights and Jenas is commentating as well now? Fuuuucking hell. Sick of the sight/sound of him. Bloke's friggin everywhere talking shite. Incidentally I had nee idea it was some Austrian team they were playing, as opposed to Grafite's lads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 It's been a grim season for Liverpool man Jesus Christ , it's ridiculous the pressure Klopp has been given yet bacon gets a free pass Just comes down to the media obsession with the "top" clubs. Any underperformance is hugely magnified beyond belief. And yeah Liverpool have had a poor season so far and Klopp does deserve some level of questioning and criticism, but comparatively the media at large don't give much of a shit about Newcastle's performance. Or Everton's. Or Crystal Palace, etc etc. It fosters an environment where a team who should be pushing for top half (you) can float around 16th/17th without serious questions about the manager. Plus of course he's English, ex Man Utd and has pals in the media. That too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abra Dubravka Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 From what I’ve seen of Tuchel there his 343 with Hudson Odoi as a wingback is looks pretty good, very flexible. Quite like Hudson Odoi playing essentially as a winger with Mount inside, and then Azpi comfortable at right back. What Tuchel and Pep are doing with a 3 cb systems is worlds away from the stiff arse cancer Bruce puts together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azpiliqueta looks anything but comfortable at right back, Chelsea for me look boring and uncreative and Hudson udoi looks ok nothing amazing. Tuchel played 4 at the back at Dortmund and PSG Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
