Your Favourite Commentary Pundit combo

Nalz

Took the idea from the Manchester United thread, apols if its done before.

What would be your ideal commentary and pundit combos?


I'd have Gullit, Merson, Dunphy and Redknapp (for comedy reasons) in the studio with good oul Bill

Motson and Beglin commentating

Pro. F

In the studio:
Kerr: great orator who always seems to be diligent in his research for a game.
Brady: great understanding and experience of the game plus an all round nice fella
Eamo: bombastic, over the top, opinionated entertainer - a must for any panel. Also, I agree with his fundamental opinions on how the game should be played.

Commentators:
Hamilton: not too much hype like the sky and itv lot, but still keeps things ticking along nicely.
David Pleat: I like the way he analysises what the teams are actually doing, like tactics, formations and movement. He treats the whole thing in a serious manner without hype which is just right for me.

Xavi6

Studio:

Bill, Eamo, Giles and Brady

I honestly don't think it could be any more entertaining than that.

Commentary:

Not fussed once it's neither Clive Tyldesley or David Pleat.

That pair give me nightmares.

Mitch Connor

Ì've always thought Martin O'Neil has been excellent when doing studio analysis. Offers great insight and isn't affraid to disagree (such as the Rooney/Ronaldo incident) Also loved his 'congratulations' to Robbie Williams.

Dont be at yourself

Studio:
Bill, Dunphy, Souness, Strachan

Commentary:
Hamilton, Beglin

Gillington

Souness in the studio for me anyways! Hopefully he's signed up for RTE's World Cup coverage

Nalz

+1 on Souness, I left him out

daithijjj

I would love to see ian holloway on any panel alongside strachan (might need to be late night though )

Giles has honesty of effort, but you're forgetting Gray has "Take a Bow son"!

Warper

Adrian Childs as host, Giles and Dunphy would have to get in. Then throw in Jamie Redknapp and maybe Pat Dolan or Phil Thompson.

Are you including Gullit, Merson, Le Tiss and Champagne Charlie in that?

Actually I'm changing my presenter to Georgie T or Charlotte Jackson

Nalz

Not forgetting Millie Clode, Natalie Sawyer and Gordon McQueens daughter!

deisedevil

Bill, Dunphy, Brady, Giles and Souness all in a studio discussing Roy Keane, Niall Quinn, Saipan, Cristiano Ronaldo, Arsenal and Arsene Wenger. The sparks that would fly would be some sight to behold.

I'd include Gullit. I like the Soccer Saturday pundits.

m@cc@

Pundits: RTE lads and Alan Hansen.


Commentary: Martin Tyler/Motty and Andy Gray




Worst commentary: Jon Champion - for Pro Evo alone.

kryogen

He's been dining on 'sexy football' for years.

Mr.Nice Guy

I like the old RTE line-up of Bill, Dunphy, Brady and Giles with George and Jim Beglin on commentary.

I'd put Martin Tyler above George but I still think George is damn good.

My nightmare line-up:

Host: That chap from Sellotanta. Pat's friend.

Guest: Garth Crooks
Guest: Ian Wright
Guest: Ruud Gullit

Commentator: Jonathan Pearce
Co-commentator: Pat Dolan

marwelie

Evanne Ni Chulaine and Natalie Sawyer presenting

Eamo, Souness and John analysing

Mike Parry off Radio 5 Live or (and before the know alls kick off, I know he only does the rugby, but he's my favourite Irish commentator) Michael Corcoran off RTE1 commentating. I didn't think it was possible to listen to rugby on the radio until he came along.

Bodhisopha

I'd like to see La Liga expert Eamonn Dunphy make the step up to Sky for their Live game analysis and Revista shows.

Joke Pundits: Wright, Schmeical, Adams, Redknapp, Crooks, Ardiles (might be good, but i can't understand a word he says).

Comedy: Any of the above + Dunphy

Good pundits: Hansen, Giles (great analysis, **** research), O'Neill, Brady, Dixon...

HalloweenJack

Studio: Stelling, Souness, Brady and McManaman (may seem odd but I think he's a good pundit).

Commentary: Alan Greene and Jimmy Armfield from BBC5Live.

Terry would rip into him after his first cliche. Though, I imagine Guillem and Dunphy would be pretty entertaining.

I'd love to see Dunphy on Football Italia. His Italian clichés are atrocious and, again, James Richardson would have seen right through him.
