lmao - I loved his comment about Cristiano Ronaldo yesterday - "Oh, no, no physical contact, he doesn't like that."
But I do get your point - his voice is very depressing.

He's awful. Instead of concentrating on Messi's great skills he tells us the guy doing the marking job is doing well. His analysis is too technical for him to effectively explain it to the layman, so it sounds like depressing negative comments made while great skill is being displayed.

He was a no nonsense, old school type of defender so it's no coincidence that he drools over 0-0's with one team holding out the other with big tackles and negative football.

He wasnt drooling though really, every 5 minutes he was sighing about how rubbish the game was, he is a dull hypocritical twonk

going back to topic - i actually normally turn the tele volume down and put radio 5 on instead. Much prefer the radio commentary. Its a bit cack at the moment, as sometimes its a second faster than the tv, but I can put up with that just so I do have to listen to the god awful commentary on tv.
BBC have the better people on the show for both football backgrounds and analysis, Im not a fan of Hansen, but he's probably the best for defences, and its nice to point out the negatives as thats how we learn to have better defence, or just to mock the poorer team, but still.
Agree with Chiles (always thought it was childs) and bleakly going over to ITV, actually im quite pleased as neither do anything for me and I dont watch ITV except for sport so I wont see them or be bored by them.

I agree with you guys about Gabby Logan. She knows her stuff but there is a definite lack of warmth every time she’s on.
Both BBC and ITV have got problems with their sports presenters. You’d have thought one of them would have gone out of their way to get Jeff Stelling on a long term contract. According to his Wiki page he was offered the job of fronting score in 2003 but he turned it down and stayed at Sky. If either ITV or BBC got Stelling then they could sack everybody else and just use him to front every Sports programme.
