Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

As a matter of interest when you see a live game do you have a technical 'expert' sat next to you to explain what's going on in front of your very eyes ?

No, I insist on total silence in the ground. If anyone speaks near me it ruins the whole experience for me

Anyone who doesnt understand what low / high means shouldnt be watching international football in 2021

That's a bit low.

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

I'd need to know the context - i.e. was she talking about the defensive line, the pressing or a specific player's positioning?
But in general terms LOW means closer to your own goal - High means closer to the opposition goal and mid is somewhere in-between the two.

Silly me. I thought, 'low,' meant close to the ground.

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

I thought it was pretty obvious low means deep/closer to your own goal?

She did ramble on a bit but she also gave good insight at times. She's a lot better than Jenas etc just needs to be told to speak a bit less.

Agreed, she'll settle into it and be brilliant. The old codgers on here still coming to terms with a woman being on the big stage....🤣🤣

"Ramble on a bit" is the understatement of the year. Constant ear bashing would be nearer the mark.

The very best commentators have the ability to add colour to any occasion, whether that be a major sporting event or one not sports-related. They know when to speak and when to let the pictures tell the story. Unfortunately, Emma Hayes is the antithesis of this.

I have no problem with her being a woman I just didn't enjoy listening to here ramble on.
Unlike you I made a judgement on her performance and not try and be woke for the sake of it.
It's called having an opinion and expressing it.
That's not illegal yet but I'm sure the likes of you would love it if your opinion was the only one that can be heard.

Re: EMMA HAYES ITV COMMENTATOR

Lots of different approaches to commentary described here. But I think I've spotted a gap in the market. What about those who prefer their 'tactical insight' to be confined to 2 or 3 opinions a game, but to have those 'insights' continually bellowed in an ultra aggressive tone.

I think both Itv and the bbc are really missing a trick by not getting Dai Hunt into the commentary team.

To make it more realistic, once you've pressed the red button and picked the Dai option for a game. You should be unable to adjust back to normal commentary, or access your tv's power or volume buttons.
