    Ray Wilkins is the worst ever... "Wanye, Frank, John, Steven, our boys, the lads, my word" * *

    He repeats himself over and over too, watch the next time he does a game how he repeats the same point about 10 times "John has been great", "great tackle by John, he's having a great game", "my word John has been impressive", "just watch the positioning by John there, fantastic" :56::56::56:

    or

    "Barcelona's possession of the ball has been superb", "Barcelona place huge emphasis on ball retention", "Look how calm Barcelona's players are on the ball, their ball retention is 2nd to none", "excellent play by Xavi, he's been great in possession of the ball"

    Its all stuff everyone knows as well he repeats.

    Found this thing someone wrote on another website mocking him...

    "You gotta keep it calm and not lose your head. Keep it simple, keep it calm, keep it real. Keep it simple too. Good lad Michael, good lad Peter. You've got to keep the ball and retain possession. The ball needs to be kept. Possession is what you need. You see Peter didn't keep it then. He lost possession. He didn't keep it. The ball went away. He lost the ball. He didn't keep possession. It's a big stadium. A stadium's stadium if yer like. At this level the stadium is big. Keep it calm! Stay on your feet! To be fair Peter was diving in there. At this level, in this stadium, you've got to keep on your feet, you've got to keep calm, you can't go to ground. Not in this stadium at this level with this kind of referee. Peter, Michael, Jermaine and Jermaine, they've got to keep calm and stay on their feet. To be fair Peter dived in a bit. As an Englishman he should have kept on his feet. 'Arry will have told them. He'll have said to them "As Englishmen stay on your feet. STAY ON YOUR FEET. Keep calm", he'll have told them, "Keep calm and stay on your feet". It's a big stadium. Aaron got a tummy bug. In actual fact a tummy bug's what Aaon's got. Stay on your feet Aaron. Stay on your feet. In this stadium, at this level, in this competition, with this referee, against this team, against this smashing team, you can't go down with a bug. You've got to stay on your feet. That was a big blow for 'Arry when Aaron went down. A big blow. A big blow's blow. A big blow's blow's blow....."

    Old Butch loves trying to throw out a few 'fancy' words.

    Exquisite, technician, exceptional etc etc

    Aye his commentary is 'remarkable'.

    Another guy that annoys me is Paul "I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean... I mean" Merson cant say a sentance without repeating "I mean" a couple of times. The length of time hes been on Soccer Saturday you could probably make a 10 minute video of all the times he's said "I mean". I like him though, can be quite funny but just repeating that all the time goes right through you.

    I like Merson on SS. Bit of a class clown, especially when he can't pronounce any foreign names. Thompson annoys me.

    Thought he was under-rated as a player.

    Think he's a great pundit.
