Majority of football fans don't care about good analysis and punditry. They care about what that bloke that used to play for Man Utd or Chelsea thinks about the game. I'd love proper football journalists to be pundits on shows. But nobody would watch it, unfortunately. They all work for The Athletic now anyway, TV can't afford them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is an impressive character, young captain, good leader, good talker, clearly intelligent...unfortunately he would struggle to pass wind and with his agent blowing smoke up his arse severely overestimated his abilities.

villan-scott Posted August 11, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 11, 2019 I got caught up in the hype of being back in the Premier League and decided to watch Sunday Supplement.

Good stuff. Saw him do punditry for Champs League and World Cup. He is brilliant as you would expect from his CV. Wenger also the same 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troglodyte Posted August 12, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 12, 2019 At one point the others started getting into heated debate and didn't seem to be making much sense at all - Neville was tying himself in knots and Souness just wanted to jump in at every opportunity. Mourinho just sat there throughout until they asked him about it and he basically shifted away from their dumb argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Time to move Souness on, he's a permanently agitated old presence who rarely demonstrates a deep understanding of the game, offers nothing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Criticized him for not playing more experience which is fair enough. But he were referring to experienced players who were unfit for the game so it was total nonsense. Should have done his homework beforehand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being able to write 500 words about football, but filling the column inches with barely any actual analysis, just loads of guff and bluster with big words, doesn’t make you any kind of expert on the game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted August 12, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted August 12, 2019 Souness looked like his time was up over the weekend, he regularly couldn't recall teams and matches and looked like his mind was slowing down, struggling to make his points.
