    Fans aren't worried about technique, they love a player who'll just run around. Referring to Ben Arfa.

    Get this clueless, smarmy chode off the ****ing television man, he's absolutely cringeworthy and pathetic - not to mention wrong - in practically everything he says. Also the pundits spending more time analysing our kit than the game trying to be funny when we were the only match of the day. **** off man.

    He is a twat. I'm sick of these so called football experts getting these jobs. I hear far more intellectual, and good football-based knowledge from everyday football fans.

    I say let certain fans produce these shows, they'd do a better job.

    Have to agree, the man is a complete tosser. What he knows about football could be written on a postage stamp.
    Ben Arfa ouzed class all afternoon with his dribbling skills, passing skills and determination. What technique was he missing? Wassock.

    He is clearly there for purposes of comedy and irreverence. He succeeds in neither regard.

    The commentators also said "back into perch" as Jonas played it to HBA as an assist for the first goal..<doh>

    Shame on the 'pundits' for not calling him out on his idiocy as well, way too back-slapping and pally in that studio, it's enough to make you sick. Minus Shearer, who didn't know who he was last season <doh> <doh>

    He did not really say Ben Afra does not have technique. He said they love a player that 'runs about' more. He was just repeating the stupid cliche people have about English fans.

    They're not too bothered about our game anyway, they're far more concerned about Crouch's goal against Man City.

    Watch it again. He never says that Ben Afra does not have technique. Only a retard will utter those words about Ben Afra. His comments were more insulting to fans then Ben Afra. Like I said repeating the old cliche about English fans and our love for people that run around.

    "He does the fans' things well. Forget technique, he runs a lot and that's what makes a cult hero," I only really interpret that one way.

    Also Colin Murray has proven himself time and again to be clueless about football, as did Chiles when he hosted.

    Don't reply then, the title's a bit off but I had to sum it up somehow. Oh, and I have an apparent mild dislike for Murray <laugh>

    Agreed. This thread has surpassed the supposed banality of the programme it's knocking. They weren't slagging HBA's technique - Shearer gave him a great appraisal.

    MOTD2 is a light-hearted programme with no real serious intent. You haven't got analysis with big TV's etc ... It's fine, even if Colin Murray doesn't know a thing about us.

    Best thing Chiles has ever done was run around the ground in his new uniform today. Didn't have to put up with his ugly mug.

    Murray is great on fighting talk. Yeah, he is a bit **** on MOTD 2, but he is an improvement on Adrian Chiles.
