Lennox Lewis (worst pundit ever) , George Foreman and Roy Jones?
Plus a lot of americans think that HBO's pundits are sh*t.
This article is bollocks anyway and it could easily be picked to pieces, the tackle wasn't bad it just had an unfortunate outcome.

The people you've listed appear as special guests on the commentary team. Roy Jones provides a few insights throughout the fight, but he isn't a permanent feature.
I know a lot of Americans don't like Kellerman and some peolpe don't rate Atlas, but as far as I know most of the pundits are generally well-respected.

He has a point on the TV, as tbh I wanted to cancel my Setanta subscription cos of Craig Burley, the fact that he then got shipped to ESPN, f*ck*ng baffled me.
Man can argue about Arsenal/Wenger propaganda, but lets be honest the press be it TV or written are very pro-England/The English way, we all see it with diving. Arsenal are effectively a foreign side with a foreign manager playing a continential brand/style of football, it would be very interesting to hear & see how many supporters say Robert Huth would have had been it him that made the tackle rather than Shawcross or what would have happened if it had been Glenn Whelan on Theo Walcott...

Lewis does most of the big fights and has been dong for years, before him it was Foreman but he didn't get along with Lampley apparently.I've watched numerous fights where Jones has been providing commentary throughout and I think he's better than all of them.
On a lot of the boxing forums the Americans are always going on about how they don't rate the HBO commentary team, especially Letterman and Lampley.

Hundred shots fired. Just let it be.
Although, Jamie Redknapp needs to watch these games from home not the studio smh.

The Tv point has some merit but how can he pick out Hansen of all the pundits?
xenophobia definitely plays a part in the media's analysis but the fact Wenger makes the most amount of noise about anything that goes against him while being blind to anything else is probably more of a factor in the backlash than anything else.
And the most obvious reason there has been a backlash is that the tackle wasn't that bad.

the only other person who plays down incidents when his team are at fault but over exaggerates decisions going against his team to the extent Wenger does is Ferguson and last year underlined that few in the media dare question anything he says/does.

Lol. Fergie & Wenger get more press hang time, cos they are the biggest & most respected two managers in the league. And been at the helm of their clubs for over a decade. Most journalists will openly say other then Mourinho when he was here & Roy Keane when he was in the Prem, those was the four most quotable managers.
Fact is, no manager in the Prem critcises his own players. None.
We all know that every club has incidents that go in their favour and they ALL act like it didnt happened, Wenger simply says he didnt see it, but ALL these same managers are quick to speak out when things go against them, and arguably rightfully so. Cos if the manager can't speak then who will speak up for their clubs.

I've heard a lot of managers say ' yeah that was a bad tackle by our player, I've got no complaints' or ' yeah I think the ref got it wrong but they even themselves out over the course of a season' which is fair enough.
Nobody is looking for Wenger to come out and criticise his players, it's just the way he insult's people's intelligence by saying ' I didn't see it' time and time again that pisses people off. The backlash is warranted anyway because it wasn't a bad tackle.

Youve gone on to a tangent now, this isn't about, Ramsey, Arsenal, Wenger
The pundits, commos, and the large majority of radio shows and articles are conducted by former players most of which have poor knowledge of football.
Hence you get people saying things like Rooney is the best in the world. As if other leagues don't exist.
And if you really want to discuss managers whose manager has resorted to childish antics in his post match interviews?
What manager hasn't even done an interview because he has ongoing conflicts with bbc/sky. The common consensus would have you believe Wenger never does that. Arsenal fans who see every post match interview know better.....

True but the only reason this guy is bringing this up is because of Wenger cos if it was Martinez/Benitez/Mancini we'd never of heard of this guy.
Some pundits are sh*t and don't offer up any decent analysis but at the same time the pundits who tend to give you the best insight are ex ballers. For every Collymore and Wright there's a Hansen and Dixon, they might not have the best presenting skills but thats secondary in my eyes.
A lot of people have got a natural inclination to go against everything positive/ hopeful about English football. Rooney is amongst the best in the world right now so pundits are warranted in saying so. The pundits from other leagues are more than likely talking up their goldenboy in the same way.
We can talk about managers but who other than Wenger has been saying 'I didn't see it ' for almost 10 years?

We talking about broken leg tackles, not offside goals or incorrect ref decisions. You cant expect Wenger to say "fair enough".
You insult your own intelligence if you believe if actually didnt see it.
Its a tackle that he didnt need to make, he is never getting to the ball. Never in a million years.
