Am I ok to like Craig Burley?

[Huyton Layne]

I like him as a commentator and then turned to the Chelsea game after ours to hear some clueless droning and realised how good he is compared to others.
Anyone agree? Who's the best ex-pro co-commentator in your opinion? Not studio person but actual game time.

 

[bluejock]

No, he's a bellend.

Course you're allowed to like him chief, different people have different opinions about different pundits.

Personally I like Gary Neville, despite his orgasm when Torres scored against Barca. Le Tissier was really good the other night too.

 

[Baines' left foot]

Gary Neville is brilliant to be fair. I'm always impressed with his analysis.

Steve McManaman for me.. Him and Ian Darke are my favorites hands down.

After watching a few of your American cousins due to streams, the competition is not that strong.

Honestly, I mean no disrespect, but Americans simply shouldnt commentate on football.

 

[Goat]

Oh wow, just read that back and it comes across as quite rude.

I mean the Americans that actually do commentate on the telly, not in general.

Spot on.. I usually mute the t.v. and jam the radio.. Can't stand American football commentators.

I also love how McManaman played for the ****e but you can tell he is as blue as you and me.. I'm sure it winds them up good.

 

[neil999]

redknapp(jamie) has to be one of the worst

 

[heatmeiser]

Andy Townsend should be banned from TV, preferably with a shotgun.

Le Tissier seemed decent and Neville is always good. That random Scottish guy today was OK too, no idea who he was like.

But no, it's not really OK to like Burley. NAE TEETH.

I think most of them are pretty crap to be honest, also why when Everton are televised can they not find an ex-Evertonian to comment on Everton.

This. I think they do very well for ESPN here in the USA.

The American commentators that I like a lot are Glenn Davis and Brian Dunseth. Both offer good insights and have a very good knowledge of the game.
