    Ah I like Tyler tbh, love his trademark 'And it's LIIIIIIVVVE' toss up between him and George Hamilton for exciting commentary. Stats I can search for myself if I want but I think a commentator's primary job is to get the viewers excited and engaged in the action.

    Tyler's not too bad! His commentary like the "Aguero moment" (coming from a United fan!) is great for a neutral!
    Loved the one when Ji scored the winner for Sunderland vs City... "It's Jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!"


    That was superb :) Love the celebrations after it.

    If I hear Martin Tyler say the Premier League is the most wonderful league in the world one more time I think I'll have to hunt him down and cut his tongue out.

    Yes City v Southampton had excitement and 5 goals but it was hardly exceptional. The champions a team of millionaire's owned by billionaire's beat a newly promoted side at home. That is all.
    In fairness there aren't that many leagues around where a newly promoted side can go away to the league champions, who were unbeaten at home last season, and go 2-1 up with 20mins to go, despite having only 19% possession in the whole of the second half.

    It was an unbelievable final 30 mins. I can't blame him for being excited - everyone loves an underdog!
    to be fair it can and does happen in any and every league around the world,the epl is not some super special league some people seem to think it is!its very very predictable 90% of the time!

    I found him for about a year or two before he was sick to be very unenthusiastic, it took him a lot to get excited. Since he came back he does seem a bit happier though.
