Zatman Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Souness hasnt managed in 15 years, not sure why he is relevant except for his dinosaur opinions. Last night he was criticising Southampton player for diving and he was visibly holding back not to blame the foreigners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want my pundits to be 30 years old, efficient in every aspect of the game, all the leagues, stats, strategies, be totally unbiased and support walsall or Accrington Stanley. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont mind the pundits if they know what talking about regardless of age ha. Mourinho was a brilliant pundit, so is Wenger Is a place for a Roy Keane because he is well aware of what his role is on the TV but Souness is just bitter that players shitter than he was are making 100 times what he did. He has said similar before 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to say that Souness is strongly claiming for a penalty is somewhat of an understatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Souness needs one of those, like yesterday. He's immune.... There was an incident a while back where Alex Scott was doing some half time analysis talking about a team's "low block" tactic. He stopped her mid sentence with breathtaking disrespect and asked dismissively "what's a low block"..... He came off as an idiot, a misogynist, a rude prick, a dinosaur and, at a stretch a racist, all in one moment all being broadcast live on TV. He's still employed.

He has said similar before i want pundits who sound as if they watch football, preferably in their spare time but at the very least sound like they watch the PL and the teams that they are commenting on souness is paid how much? £250k a year?? he doesnt watch football, the likes of danny murphy watch spurs and maybe a few more games a year, tonight is man city vs monchengladbach do you think anyone in the studio will have watched them this season? not a chance, at the very best they might ahve watched some highlights from the weekend, probably been told something by a researcher about the manager going to dortmund i want a pundit who sounds like he watched atalanta vs napoli at the weekend just because he thought it would be an enjoyable game of football 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If United or Liverpool sign a random player from Scandinavia or Italy tomorrow and ask 95% of Sky or BBC pundits they will just give you a cliche answer even though never never seen them play. I think some of the ESPN pundits I watch on YouTube are a bit better as they cover more leagues so need to know the players Worst part with Souness as well is that he actually played and managed abroad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Richardson is a very knowledgeable host and all the pundits genuinely know loads about football. Always find it really interesting listening to them.

Knob. To be fair he was a great manager in his time. At Blackburn in order to put a halt to Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke being too big for their boots he tried to break their legs in training. Top top manager. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They see middle of the road players today getting 10x salary they did, and they're also fitter and better looked after than they every were. Roy Keane thinks every loss is because a team isn't trying or showing enough desire. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jay.P.A Posted February 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2021 Slightly off topic but Liam Rosenior was the best footy analyst and pundit they had. Most of the time, I'd completely agree with what he was saying. Saw a lot from him when he was analysing our Championship games. He'd be better then Souness. But Sky know this, and want the fans to have a reaction to him. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had the chance to take him from us when we were at our lowest point, but their dick splash of a chairman decided to flex his ‘negotiating’ skillz and offer Onomah and a bag of skittles. Grealish will never play for Spurs, he’s a Villa boy and would only leave for a far better team than them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
