Arsene Wenger has been sacked by TF1 where he was an analyst and pundit . The french cooperation has let him know of their decision when Wenger spent a few hours in France from Switzerland . The decision would certainly benefit Arsenal as their manager will have now to dedicate himself fully to his managerial role .
Apparently his commentary style lacked POWER and PACE! :shrug:
Arsene? What are your views?
I didn't see it!
Did my commentary of top, top, top quality leave an outstanding global impression?
I believe yes.
But as well you know we live in a society of opinions. Everyone is entitled to an opinion.
Was the judgement of TF1 that I was maybe little bit past it?
I do not have an opinion on that.
Lacking a little sharpness possibly???
TF1 hasn't been the same since Zim took over.
I heard he wasn't direct enough with the issues and tended to tip tap round them.
these days, modern pundits just have to say something controversial to get hits and spark outrage on twitter, like robbie savage, whereas someone like Wenger who most could sit and listen to for hours talking about football won't do that. Wonder if the french tv is going the same way as english tv and getting morons to be pundits rather then people who know what they are talking about
Apparently he didn't said anything until the 69th minute regardless of what was happening on the pitch...
Was I commentating little bit with the handbrake? You can say that. I think (I) controlled the mic, but perhaps suffer from the world cup where I commentated two games every four days.
Of course, you think the solution is always to sack the co-commentator. Nobody questions Alan Parry "Unbelievable" catchphrase, yet you look always at my "Fuck me! That was shit!".
