Day 10: Belgium vs Tunisia, South Korea vs Mexico and Germany vs Sweden

[FireballXL5]

I noticed it recently but Phil Neville's voice when he's commentating feels so forced and unnatural. He talks in mini-bursts like he's trying to make things sound dramatic.

He's worse than Owen Hargreaves. That's a sentence I thought I'd never write.

 

[SwansonsTache]

If Lukaku had a first touch he would be in the top tier of strikers, sadly I don't think he ever will.

 

[edcunited1878]

Poor first touch by Rom, not sure if he could have prevented the ball from going across him and first touch on his left side but then shows good hold up/link up play in the following moments

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Great chance. Carry on like that, Tunisia.

Yeah, it's awful. If someone said do a joke commentator's voice that's what you'd do.

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Nice.

 

[Santos J]

Good effort from Khazri

 

[duffer]

Send up the Bat signal.

 

[SwansonsTache]

Feck me what a beak on Courtois.

 

[ManUtd1999]

Great chance. Carry on like that, Tunisia.

To Tunisia’s credit, they didn’t give up despite the early deficit, just like against England.

It won’t be enough in the end, but they’re trying.

 

[Lay]

Good run

I'd love for you to tell me who those 'top tier' strikers are?

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Khazri>Hazard. In last 23 seconds, I mean.

 

[Carlsen19]

Feck me what a beak on Courtois.

He could smoke a cigar in the shower and it’d stay dry.

 

[Vato]

This Khazri guy is pretty good.

 

[vangagal]

this Khazri fella so fecking greedy and ignorant with his teammates movement.

 

[DRM]

Just knew Rom would miss that!

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Aaaaand he's down.

 

[SwansonsTache]

I'd love for you to tell me who those 'top tier' strikers are?

Kane, Lewandowski, Ronaldo who is practically a striker, Aguero.

 

[Oldyella]

Yeah, it's awful. If someone said do a joke commentator's voice that's what you'd do.

I think his first few attempts at commentary are how he would normally speak, where he was very monotone and just droned on. He took a load of flack and said he would improve. Hence his current attempt at soun ding excited which just feels false.

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Jeez, another injury sub, very unfortunate.

He’s basically trying to talk like Gary

 

[Vato]

Tunisia very unlucky with these injuries

 

[duffer]

Boyata stands out like a sore them in terms of quality for Belgium.

He's also very dim.

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Leave Phil alone, you bullies!

 

[BusbyMalone]

De Bruyne not even half the player he is when he plays for Belgium. Strange seeing such a great player almost anonymous

 

[saivet]

De Bruyne not even half the player he is when he plays for Belgium. Strange seeing such a great player almost anonymous

Not watched properly but in a 2 man midfield, I'm not surprised

 

[FerociousCorgis]

this has to be the dumbest use of KDB i have ever seen in my life.

 

[ChaddyP]

De Bruyne not even half the player he is when he plays for Belgium. Strange seeing such a great player almost anonymous

Playing an entirely different subdued role. Not a fair comparison

 

[Red Stone]

Lukaku is hopeless today, despite the goal.

 

[Jazz]

Oh Rom.. should have done better

 

[duffer]

So close to a great break.

 

[Loublaze]

Thank god Fellaini is not stinking up the place. Does Martinez not trust him as much as Marc Wilmots did?

 

[Dobba]

Lukaku is hopeless today, despite the goal.

And he scores again.

 

[Santos J]

Brilliant finish

 

[I_live_cement]

Oh Rom.. should have done better

Yeah should have grown his leg.

Edit: That's how you do it!

 

[pjaya]

Goalll

 

[Tom Van Persie]

Lukaku again!

 

[Freak]

Big Rom!!
