Topic: FAC: Arsenal 0 vs 2 Liverpool og 80’ Diaz 90+5’

Could we subtlely block the stealing of yards by Ben White and others of that mindset.

It could be fun, I’d like to see him up against one of our big lads.

Only one winner

Did we win?  I'm confused as all I'm hearing is Arsenal should have had a cricket score.

He's been negative towards us for a while now, I remember a few years ago when DCL 'won' a penalty against us by jumping into Lovren and then going to ground, Shearer was in the studio and said something along the lines of "That's what all good strikers do, you can't give someone a reason to go down."
A few weeks later Lallana went down in the penalty area after being pulled back and shearer said "Football is a contact sport, you can touch someone without it being a penalty."
And then he complained about Liverpool fans calling him out over his hypocrisy;
"For all the Liverpool fans currently hurling personal abuse at me, my wife and kids because I happen to disagree with your opinion about the penalty decision, you do know you won don't you? PS So f**k off!"

Didn't see this yesterday. The point about his bullshit and hypocrisy is spot on.
I politely emailed TRIF email address about his Jota comments, no swearing, no abuse etc, I just called him out. It's ridiculous if people are giving him and his family abuse.
(I never received a reply btw)

Couldn’t believe it when I got home from the match to see Shesrer saying we could have been 5 down at half time. I thought it was a reasonably uneventful first half, the Odegaard effort aside.

Heard a bloke on a pod describe Shearer's commentary "The match was like a lovely dessert in a Michelin star restaurant and he's the waiter who comes over and sticks his flute in it"

This fuss about Shearer's commentary surprises me, I didn't think he was that bad. Nothing like what we usually get on Sky/TNT. You think he was bad wait for tomorrow on Sky.

I don’t mind shearer. Certainly don’t get my arse in a twist over crap commentary when we’ve won a fantastic game. Been listening to Shearer on the Rest is Football for a while and his opinions are just pretty basic, standard sound-bite stuff. Not much depth and just throws the F-bomb around with curmudgeonly frustration a lot. I wouldn’t read much into what he says.

[Red Beret]

Everyone else is so shit it makes Shearer tolerable. But that doesn't make him good - or impartial.

He was good in the CL semi, but that was the kind of occasion that would sweep up most football types and just carry them on a wave.

But who is a good colour commentator? 


The only person everyone likes is Ally McCoist.  He can’t do everything!

I don't like McCoist when he's on Sky and TNT. The only place I have liked him was Prime when they were doing the football, as they just concentrate on commentating on the actual football.
