| Forum Thread | Which pundits were right? BBC v RTE at 12:29 24 Jun 2010
As compiled by The Irish Times, here are some choice cuts from their contrasting analysis of England v Slovenia: Alan Hansen: "Once England got the goal the confidence levels surged, they were excellent." Eamon Dunphy: "They just didn't grow in confidence at all after the goal." Gary Lineker: "The goal really settled them, didn't it? They pushed on from there." Ronnie Whelan: "You'd think they'd have kicked on from when they scored, but they actually got worse." Roy Hodgson: "England's crossing has been absolutely outstanding." John Giles: "Some of the crossing was just awful." Lee Dixon: "A great performance." Dunphy: "Shocking...absolutely incredibly bad...pretty awful stuff." Lineker: "He looked more like the Rooney we know." Whelan: "Rooney is a major worry, his form, his body language, his demeanour, everything." Dixon: "Gerrard was outstanding." Dunphy: "I can't believe how bad Gerrard was today." Redknapp: "Across midfield we were top drawer." Giles: "Barry got worse as the game went on, Milner, Gerrard and Lampard the same." 'Arry: "Bring it on! Whoever we play we'll be difficult to beat." Whelan: "If they don't improve they'll go straight out, it was a very, very inept performance." |
