£50m was reported last week but who knows.......I've watched a fair bit of Chilwell and quite honestly haven't been that impressed. Give me Robbo for £8m any day .......paying figures like that for a LB you should be buying top draw...........Chilwell ain't that good.
So three white, male and middle-aged+ pundits get the chop...wonder who'll be coming in and which boxes they'll tick
Pep started it by splashing out 50m for walker mendy and cancello and therefor rating all average full backs at that price bracket.
saw some odds on people to replace, on list of about 10, Jimmy Bullard was the only white man, Kelly Smith was only white woman. Rest were all BAME. Can’t argue the show prob needs some refreshing in terms of diversity, not that I watched it much last few however Clinton Morrison was one of favs and my god he’s an awful pundit. It’s hard to be worse than le tiss or Merson (who somehow hasn’t been sacked despite not being able to speak properly 99% of the time) but Morrison manages to be in their company
The whole thing is a big "meh" from me anyway. I hardly ever listen to pundits. I don't watch pre-match build-up and I mute it at half-time. Apart from the post match reaction of the manager and players I don't watch anything after. Same with MotD, I mute the discussions in between games unless there's something of particular interest. I just want to watch the games, I don't really care much what they think and don't want to listen to them droning on. Same with commentators, far too much talk about tangential things rather than giving a real commentary on the action. Does me 'ead in.
Tbf, when i started work in the late 70's, that would invariably be another middle-aged white man stepping into the shoes of another middle-aged white man who was leaving. You can see the problem there, surely?
