    There was a joke made about it a while back. They all just laughed. He took it well to be fair to him.

    Absolute bore to listen to, the one time he made me laugh though was the 'how dare Hernandez celebrate his winning goal, he should have thanked Ronaldo for the assist' crap, this from the guy who celebrated like a madman after caressing the ball with his left palm twice before knocking it to Wiltord for 'that' goal!

    Cannot stand the guy.

    That was ridiculous. What little respect I had for him as a pundit, I lost after that! When has Ronaldo ever "thanked" a teammate for an assist?

    He does it all the time. The problem is he tries to be the centre of attention even while doing that. He does the dramatic "No, it was you!" finger point thing. It's sort of hilarious. :P

    He's not great I must admit but in fairness he's not speaking his own language. Are there any other sky pundits for whom English isn't their native tongue? No Carragher jokes ;-)

    That excuse doesn't fly. He was at Arsenal for nearly 10 years then 5 more in the states, lives in London and he's married to a English model. His English is a absolutely fine, doesn't stop him from saying something interesting.

    Didier Hamman, is great to listen to. Watch La Liga coverage plenty of Spaniards speaking English on Sky who aren't boring either.

    What is it with these TV companies employing guys who have zero ability to talk?

    It matters for nothing how good a footballer they were if they put you to sleep when they open their mouths.

    And latest I heard is that Stevie G is going to be a pundit soon. That is someone's idea of a joke, right?
