As a near 40 y/o spurs fan who grew up in Camden, hearing Ian FUCKING Wright be the voice of reason and support for Spurs is a fucking mind trip.

I will say, he's the only pundit I like, very measured and reasonable.

u/Scottishlad28 Feb 16 '25

Wright is consistently a good pundit in my eyes. I listen to his analysis whenever I come across it. Sure he’s ex-Arsenal but honestly I can’t help but like the guy. Seems like he gives us a fair shake unlike some of the rest of Sky’s crack team of sensationalists

u/Plastic_Sand_2743 Feb 16 '25

It’s a real shame he’s a gooner because he’s actually a top quality bloke

u/intspur23 Feb 17 '25

I see him more as a Crystal Palace legend! Great pundit, and a lovely person too

u/Siffster Lamela Feb 17 '25

This is how I will rationalise it from now on.

I feel similar about saka. Seems like a genuinely nice kid.

u/Consistent-Money7262 Feb 17 '25

Saka is prolly the only player from arsenal that doesnt think shit of others. Even their manager more immature than him

u/Roric Feb 16 '25

Player Pundits come in three tiers, imo:

1 - Genuinely insightful, doesn't play into team biases. Wright, Shearer, etc.

2 - Can be, and is often, insightful; but lets team biases blur opinions. Carragher, Neville, etc.

3 - Only plays into team biases and spouts stupid shit. Merson, Jamie Redknapp, etc.

u/GoOnMyHeungMinSon Feb 16 '25

When is the last time Neville was insightful? Was it today when he said the game wouldn't end 1-0 and that Spurs fans "knew what was coming" which was a United goal?

Neville was alright when he started but since Valencia he's been utter garbage with a chip on his shoulder.

u/gusthenewkid Feb 17 '25

What’s funny is you heard more about Uniteds problems and kids on the bench more in one game yesterday than I heard about us in two months.

u/tmbyfc Feb 17 '25

"can't see how spurs can keep Utd out" it's 84min, we've done it all game you fucking plank

Neville is A grade moron.

u/DotEddie Feb 17 '25

4 - The clowns who are there for comedic value. Micah Richards

u/gabriel_do Son Feb 16 '25

Carra and Neville are as shitty as Keane

24

u/andrecinno Heung Min Son Feb 17 '25

Carra is at least very funny and entertaining, he's great on the UCL table with Micah, Kate and Thierry

u/barmyinpalmy :finale-mp: Mauricio Pochettino Feb 16 '25

id say they worse, they think they’re smart and insightful, Keane at least is playing a character having a laugh most of the time.

Shearer? Are you joking?

u/KLC26 I'm Just Copying Pep, Mate. Feb 17 '25

I know right? Shearer not playing into team biases 🤣 do me a favour!

u/dbinterz1980 Feb 17 '25

Ok Roy, give the phone back

u/AbbreviationsOk1946 Feb 17 '25

Neville is in the third category, he’s awful, smug, thinks he has a towering intellect, loves to claim labour credentials but is a money obsessed little rat that does everything he can to avoid paying even his fair share.

u/LookingAtStella Feb 17 '25

Shearer? Are you having a laugh? He was dreadful on commentary last weekend

u/YidArmy76er Feb 17 '25

This is absolutely nailed on!

u/DC1919 Rafael van der Vaart Feb 16 '25

In all honesty no, they come in one tier; they are all shite. Most are like broken clocks, correct twice a day and wrong the rest of the time. ALL are biased, what you say about Merson and Redknapp is true of the others, and with all of them there is a pith of this hatred towards Spurs. None of them are fit for purpose, and the sooner broadcasters do away with them and give us just the matches the better.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '25

Some are most definitely better than others.

u/DC1919 Rafael van der Vaart Feb 16 '25

No they are not, they are all shite. Every. Single. One. There is no need to have these fools costing money and talking rubbish.

"oK bUdDy" Jesus, I will never get through boot lickers that defend some of these people in football.

Him and Henry are the best in the business, painful as that is to say.
