OK Thanks.
Robbie Savage - commentator

He picked UTD to win the league before the season started (on Talksport) think he has a love hate relationship with the club tbh
Sorry. But I cannot stand the man. Talks total rubbish and just repeats himself.
He often tries to belittle people who don't agree with him. Which is quite often.

Yeah I saw this and thought it was strange, we also took a free kick at one point as well instead of bringing them on.
"Gary Lineker has jokingly tweeted after Robbie Savage's son, Charlie, made his Manchester United debut yesterday evening, claiming: "If he’s got half of his dad's ability then he’ll be absolutely hopeless."
The tongue-in-cheek tweet was sent shortly after Charlie replaced Juan Mata in United's 1-1 draw with Young Boys at Old Trafford.
The 18-year-old attacking midfielder, who has risen through the Academy process with the Reds, has already achieved a feat his dad failed to by making a first-team debut for the club.
Father Savage, who spoke to BT Sport before the game and was on co-commentary duty during it, spent time with United as a youngster before forging a professional career elsewhere. "
didn't know that Robbie Savage has become a priest?
Minds me of Philip Mulryne ex United United player quit football and is now a priest

Didn't realise his son went to MGS.
Is that where you went Col?
Don't know why but his "WOOOOOW IT'S ELANGA" had me in stitches 
Games where he's commentating genuinely feel enjoyable. He's a proper muppet. It's MUTV-esque.
Big time. My favourite was for Ronaldo's winner against Villareal he was over the moon, said Ronaldo's name so many times while getting progressively louder.
If I haven't linked the video properly it's around 6:55
I like him too. It strange to actually have a pro Utd commentator especially when we’ve been so bad for so long. I bet he’s good craic to go for a pint with.
As a fellow north Wales guy I don’t mind him at all, actually think he’s pretty funny and fair do’s to him, he’s made a great living from being a pretty average footballer..
I remember Savage at Crewe. Wisp of a lad, and a bit more quality on the ball than the heavy set, abrasive hard working scuffler he became known for.

Every right to be proud, his kid was great today I felt. He was a nice, calming presence in midfield.
If he had Matic to mentor from for a year, to learn how to use his body and shield the ball, he'd be a first team squad player the season after imo.
I'd really love to dig him. Salty because his son didn't make it and rambles on like me when I accidently do sativas. He should be nowhere near commentary, he achieved nothing in the game and talks like he's won it all.
ABU since we sold off his son.
Really bizarre commentary from him.
He couldn't come up with the words to explain his defense (and glee) of the red card when pressed by his commentating partner at the start of the second half.
What a cnut he is. Screaming penalty when it was against us and he's not so sure of the Copenhagen one.
Thick cnut, like he's been on glue.
He commentates about as well as he played
Yep. Clear as day. What a tit.
Told us it was a stone wall pen in the first half. Then he says that one is harsh. Absolutely clear he’s a fud.
The heel turn since we sold his kid has been bizarre. He was like listening to fan zone during our Europa games last season. Now it's the opposite.
He was/is also a Ronaldo fanboy. Is he mad about that too?

Perfectly summarised.
He’s such annoying commentator
Sounds like a YouTuber commenting on the game. So thick.
Yeah that was embarrassing. When non-United supporters text you about him and his agenda says it all

His son is on loan isn't he gaining vital experience in a very difficult situation given Reading are in complete turmoil.
He's also broken into the Wales squad in last few months with the loan spell so I don't see what he'd be bitter about?

It’s a “clear and obvious” shift.
Perhaps var will take a look….,,,,,,,
He's not on loan, it's permanent.
He’s not on loan, we sold him.
His lad was like a deer in the headlights, never good enough.
Sub par like his old man.

Oh right, my apologies. Reading are completely broke currently so surprised they could afford it unless it was a nominal fee as he's getting Wales caps so value will only increase from this point.
I had to settle for Brian Kerr on Virgin media, the fella never stopped talking utter shite and the main commentator struggled to get a word in then in the studio that bloody awful pundit Richard Dunne with a big stupid smirk on his face.
