wow. that was self Indulgent and pointless. unbelievably ignorant. well done Alan Smith for being the only one not say anything daft. I'd delete this Sky to minimise who sees it. it's that bad
this shoe is getting worse and worse. the French league isn't a massive league it's a farmer's league with psg sitting on top of it
This is cringing to listen too at times, #TheDebate, please have guests do there research and have something to add other than "its flippin brilliant" I'm one for diversity on a panel, but if you cant add anything to the discussion your just wasting everybody's time and its embarrassing and cringing to listen to you repeat over and over, its brilliant everything's brilliant, Leicester are brilliant.... why are they brilliant? whats different? what's Rodgers brought to the table? etc second time this guys been on with Paul Merson and brought nothing to "THEDEBATE"
for me.....why do pundits always say that?? we know its for you..you are the one talking@
so glad the game is on BT, sky sport is ridiculously biased towards liverpool its disgusting
No 2nd chances for a peado u pair of morons .as family men u should be ashamed
Great debate lads unbelievable result
I almost feel sorry for Geoff Shreeves in this podcast. The other two were ridiculously poor in every topic. Amazing that they were both pro players. Bellamy must have friends in high places at Sky to regularly get shifts with them. Pretty woeful pundit.
Lol no wonder sherwood not managing. The man talk bollocks. And as for Charlie Nicholas don't get me started and that prick!!!!
