Channel 4 coverage seems pretty terrible.

 

Justin Starts for England.

 

Michael Owen talking some sense..

Really thought channel 4 would go for it with the pundits etc. A great chance to hire those who have been so popular on Amazon coverage. 
 

Maybe they will mix it up over the 4 games, would have been great to see Drury or Tildesley on comms though! Shame. 
 

I think essentially they’re borrowing from BT… probably outsourced the tech side to them too.

Yea they seem to have took the diversity vote with two women presenting and Michelle Owen

Who is on comms for this?

Steve Bower and Rob Green. 
 

Bower quite good on MOTD but hard to judge on a highlights show 

[whoareyaaa]

Seems like they used all the money on the bid and forget about wages.

 

Why haven't ITV or BBC got it

No issues with that. The lead presenter Jules has done some of our European games this season and been good.

On C4 doing the broadcasting, it could be a good thing. Looking back at 2018 in particular I had a French channel on during one of their games and it was presented completely differently. Set in a studio chat show style, surrounded by young adult fans who interacted with the show, hosts like Wenger, vibrant colours and just more life. If you compare that to our 4 old grumpy blokes sat in a studio waiving their arms about, trying to say anything interesting, I think it needs shaking up; bring some energy back into it.

[David Hankey]

What a way to take a corner!!

[lcfcsnow]

We’ll continue to go nowhere under Southgate, just too happy to line up defensively even against poor opposition. Three centre backs, protected by two defensive mids is surely only needed in extreme circumstances but it’s his go to formation.

[Nalis]

Pretty much just focused on watching how Justin plays, like a proud father.

[foxfanazer]

Giving a good account of himself. We seem to be focusing our play down his side

[trabuch]

Kane is passing to Justin a lot.

[Nalis]

FVCK. SAKE. Justin pulling up, feel for the bloke but least he's back on the pitch.

For ****s sake 

[surrifox]

Can’t believe it 

[AjcW]

He’s looked slow from about minute 5 so probably did this early on/carrying it

[EnderbyFox]

Not seen anything from Mount yet that Maddison couldn't do, that excuse of him not suiting the system is a load of shit 

[Suzie the Fox]

If that had gone in

[davieG]

Dire stuff. 

[David Hankey]

Another England corner wasted. Arnold appears to be unable to do a basic fundamental.

[splinterdream]

Quite a few overhitting the ball, wonder if it's different weight or if its the weather 

[foxfanazer]

Leicester! It's like watching Leicester! 

[davieG]

What does Bellingham bring to the game? He looks like a lost boy in the middle.

I think he’d rather be in holiday.
