It's hard to avoid when he's doing the commentary for the match though.
I don't think anyone gives a shit about what he thinks, it's just annoying having to listen to him drone on.

Miserable cnut
Best part of the commentary was when Matterface started going through the referees thought process for giving a free kick for hand ball while watching him place the ball for a drop ball.
So miserable when he's commentating it's like he doesn't even enjoy football
I think Dixon once threatened to kick the shite out through Giggs ribs!
Fcuk him .
Fcuk him .
Clown. A bit disappointed there's a thread here on this miserable clown.
Why would you hire someone as commentator who seems to hate football?
He is fecking dreadful.
He is fecking dreadful.
Wish someone would pay his ransom, he's clearly being held hostage and forced to watch football
Funniest part is when he started criticising sports journalism as a whole
And the other commentator just said nothing, left an awkward silence then moved on.
Wasn't listening, what did he say?
Why does this cnut think his commentary gig is the place to rehearse his fecking shit stand-up routine. Christ, I hate him.
Gave the MOTM to the losing side

He’s a right miserable cnut.

Typical Manc?
I mean, who on our team deserved it? Only DDG really... Palhinha was my MOTM too.Gave the MOTM to the losing side

Actually wish more pundits would do that - the MOTM doesn't always have to be from the winning team.
Best player not best player from winning teamGave the MOTM to the losing side

With technology today I wish there were more options to mute one or both commentators.
First commentator should be there for audio descriptions, second to give expert insight.
But what we get is constant fluff/transfer gossip or someone trying to crack a joke and be witty all the time…gets on my nerves!
But maybe I’m just becoming miserable and cynical as I get older.

Whilst I agree with the general point about Dixon being a nightmare, I don't have an issue with this. It's entirely feasible a player on the losing side is MOTM and the Palhinha was very good.Gave the MOTM to the losing side

Hard to be man of the match of the losing side when the games over after 70 minutes.
Nobody is that good
How do you work that out? Surely if you're the best player on the pitch for 70 minutes you're in with a good shout? Especially if nobody on the winning team has been any good at all.
He seemed to get stuck in a loop of moaning about players committing fouls in benign areas of the pitch last night. The more it happened, the more it seemed to wind him up.
It’s almost 25 percent of the game?Its MOTM, it’s not scored like boxing rounds
I’d argue the man who took it around the keeper, left two players on their ass that caused the pen and made the key pass for the second goal had a bigger influence on the game than anyone else?
I’d even argue De Gea was the best player in the pitch before that anyway.
But then with that logic, a player who gets subbed off at 70 minutes can't win MOTM?
For me the man of the match should be who has been the best player on the pitch both in terms of overall play and who's effected it in moments. Palhinha was a huge reason why Fulham had been dominating the gamea s they had been for the majority of it. It's a totally reasonable MOTM call...
DDG won us the match, he deserved it over their player IMO. It's sour gapes from Lee Dixon. If it was Arsenal that won 3-1 do you think he'd give it to the opposition? No chance.
Or... he just thought he played the best game? It's not like he gave Tim Ream Man of the Match...
Sometimes, things just aren't a conspiracy.
TBF, its better than giving Gerrard man of the match because 'hes had a tough week' or 'because welcome back'
Lee Dixon sounds bored 90% of any game. Couples his lazy attitude with random mentions of when he used to play full back with practically zero useful analysis. Bizarre that he continues to get commentary gigs.
He combines making the game sound as dull as possible with getting half of his pronouncements completely wrong anyway.
A stand out example was Maguire's yellow card yesterday. He spent a couple of minutes regaling us with how clever Mitrovic was, how he made it so that Maguire had no choice but to foul him.
Then he went quiet for 30 seconds, and when he started up again, describing the same incident, he began talking about how there was absolutely no need to foul Mitrovic there, and why did Maguire do that? Only 30 seconds between completely contradictory opinions. I don't reckon the guy knows what's going to come out when he opens his mouth.

An opinion that seems harder and harder to get across these days.
The football forums are so mad this season. Either extreme self loathing about how shit we are, or outrage about how absolutely everyone is out to get Manchester United and we’re already the moral champions of the Premier League. No middle ground at all.
Nah. He's just lived in London far too long.
I just think 20 minutes of complete domination kills any idea of a player from the losing side being MOTM. Let’s just say it’s a stretch. There’s a reason why losing players are stupidly rare winners of the award and last night wasn’t such a standout that he warrants a place in that bracket
Dixon is so boring, he'd make a sunny day cloudy. So many of these ex-pros that turn to punditry come across as brain dead including ex-united players. I've started to turn off the commentary as it has got so bad.
He’s on top form today
Was going to switch to ITV after hearing Jenas suck off Pep but that may be more preferable than listening to Dixon
Should not be commentating given the history, being a citeh fan.
ABU wanker

Am i missing something there is about 50 different posters on my facebook saying corruption and it should have counted? As for Dixon he said the opposite when Garnacho scored at the emeriates
