Best Comms Team

What we having as the best commentators and pre/half/post team so far this WC?

For me it is tonight's lot in NY but fuck boring off for the little scotch fella.

I like Chappers on the BBC

Best studio team are on ITV. Both Pougatch and Woods are great, especially when it’s with Keane, Neville and Wright. Their best comms pairing is Champion and Mcoist.

BBC studio is a bit pants. I do like Mowbray and Shearer.

Combined ITV are ahead for me.

Matterface has just done a touching monologue about ice cream

Matterface & Dixon are quite good on the football but their "banter" is painful.

Danny Murphy is the best summariser.

Gary Neville is a cunt.

He’s always been a cunt.

McCoist is the worst commentator in the world, absolutely awful

I like him

Not comms, but Wayne Rooney's analysis is fucking excellent.

I am highly sensitive to this stuff

For play by play I really like Liam McLeod from BBC. Vets like Mowbray, Champion etc. are also great on comms.

For colour I like Murphy, McFadden, Warnock. Shearer is ok when he's not covering England, McCoist I like but I can see why people don't. Dixon is a dour bellend.

Pundits: Wright, Rooney and Hart are streets ahead of the others.

Dixon is the new Lawrenson

Sounds like he doesn't want to be there and spent all afternoon in the pub

Micah Richards is so much better on BBC than SKY

Danny Murphy is my favourite co-com.

ITV have nailed it with their pundits this year.

After years of enduring his lack of punditry on MOTD, Shearer is surprisingly good on co-comms.

McCoist is elite level on co-comms and the ITV studio and pundits head and shoulders above BBC.

I'm glad I've not seen him on Sky if that's the case!

ITV studio team has nailed it, big 3 are quality but others like Ange, Duncan Ferguson also good.

For the BBC Rooney is growing into it and getting better at expressing what is real insight

Comms-wise, none of the pairings really stand out for me. Like Shearer as a co-comms, Champion and McCoist work well together, Bower and Murphy steady enough.

Matterface is insufferable and Dixon grumbles along like a bloke who's been given a big list of jobs by his Mrs.

I forgot about Ange

He's been great in my view

Watched the Spain Portugal game on foreign, with Martyn Tyler & Andy Townsend on comms.

So much better than anything that ITV or BBC have provided.

Pougatch is a fucking bell end and looks like he gets dressed in a charity shop or lost property

I like McCoist as a fella and he's OK as a co- commentator but he's got a very limited vocabulary. But I still prefer him over the other ITV ones as he's much more invested in the game Infront of him.

That's my thing with him, he just says everything is "Bruuuyannt" even the most basic pass.

He's OK n something like Talksport, but he's a God awful commentator
