Good post tho!![]()
One who's been left out of the pundit list is Keown, who has surprised me and been pretty accurate, fair and good to listen to.

You’re probably right about Maguire, I was influenced by his start to the game, which was pretty poor. However, I just don’t understand the praise that Henderson gets, I think he’s such a limited player. He reminds a lot of that old Ipswich, Arsenal and Baggies stalwart, Brian Talbot. An apparent level of activity masking a lack of any meaningful contribution. Whenever he gets the ball, his first, and only, thought is to pass it back it from where it came. He rarely, if ever, turns and runs with it. His passing is incredibly accurate but I reckon I can pass a ball accurately for 3-5 yards. I hope he puts in a stormer and proves me completely wrong for the rest of the tournament.
Agree about Martin Keown, understated but very knowledgeable
