Does the last part really happen? Many clueless opinions in football are rarely called out

Last week Danny Murphy called Gerrard a coach for example

Is this getting questioned cause it's Eni Aluko a black female pundit, cause we rip other male pundits on here all day long, an no one gets on the defensive??

Well it was close to factual. If you listened today, (although I doubt you even listened previous), she got ripped apart by Simon Jordon, got tied up in knots changing her story. Yes other pundits say stupid things, but generally back them up, she fell apart today.

Heard it earlier and now the clip is on, she didn’t have a clue what she was on about, like pretty much all the time

Jordan in the shining light 

Only thing I listen to on talksport, don't agree with everything he says but he doesn't take any nonsense of people and will, mostly, call them out.

Usually very complementary about us and thinks we will shake up the top 6 this season.

Also really like the boxing segments he does.

Jim White can be a bit of a nob though.

Where is the Danny Murphy abuse online for calling Gerrard a coach which is arguably a bigger fraud than what she said.

She said something shit but yeah Murphy isnt trending for saying something as fraudulent

Well he is actually is a coach because he has his coaching badges, he might be a bad one but what Murphy said is true

You’re the one who brought race into it? You said she was only hired for diversity reasons

I feel like in the summer, it's a bit of an idle hands scene for football media. They get themselves into trouble trying to be relevant in the transfer window. It's not really the same sets of reporting skills as the season and I think many reporters today simply aren't equipped to do "both" jobs. Yes, you might use some of the same sources, but it's a just a whole different game. I think there almost need to be transfer window specialists, just as there are free kick and pen specialists, etc. on the pitch lol. Maybe I'm missing something big, but I feel like I'm seeing so much bullshit this summer and missed stories and obvious ****-ups even from the major media. I don't know who to trust.

The best thing we can could all do (which we don't) is ignore all football media from the final whistle of the last game of the season until the first whistle of the first pre season game. Everything in between is just filler.

It's just forever young being forever old. Forgetfulness comes with age. Light a match and then claim you weren't the firestarter. Whistles.

Eni Aluko can’t help herself, sooner the tv stations **** her off the better, another one where she said racist white boys all for disagreeing with her over that nonsense she come out with last week

This is weird.  She's now saying that she didn't ask them to make a fictional bid, but merely asked them what they were going to bid.  So everyone calling her out on her bizarre comments before was right. She was talking bollocks before.

It never made sense in the first place because I don't see how asking a rival to bid for a player they don't want helps you get a deal over the line with your club for the same player. Not least because why would the rival help you,  but mainly because they're not going to waste their time on something that doesn't benefit them. 

Now if she'd said "City will bid,  with no intention of actually signing Rice, but just to try and get Arsenal to spend more"... then maybe that would make sense.

City doing that off their own back and trying to shaft arsenal in the process (either by making them outbid City or actually ending up getting the player that Arsenal really wanted).

Something going on isn't there? Stelling, Tyler and now Shreeves

Are the Saudi's setting up their own version of Sky Sports?!

She is an absolute disgrace and should be banished for good. Her racist comments alone need to be investigated. She is a piece of s***.

I haven't actually paid much attention to this, but wasn't the theory she advanced something along the lines of getting another club to bid for a player you want might put a rocket up your owner's arse about getting his wallet out?

Tyler already commentates on PL games for the official Premier League feed for global TV channels.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Shreeves pop-up on Bein Sports, which is the official broadcaster for the whole of the Middle East.
