    Owlsfan, you do know there are other punditry teams you can watch, right?

    Owlsfan has a love/hate relationship with Dunphy!

    Not last night there wasn't if I wanted to watch that game. I drifted over occasionally to Spurs vs Bolton whenever George Hamilton starting spouting on about the "priceless away goal". No great interest there with Andy O'Brien playing like, err, Andy O'Brien. It would appear to George H that even if a team loses 10-1, no worries, they've got the priceless away goal. Perhaps I should watch it all with the sound down

    They were talking about how his fame came through celebrity and not football, but well done to him for making what he did (fame-wise) of himself, despite his lack of ability.

    It wasn't so much what they were saying, just the fact that they never shut up. RTE just goes on and on with 'analysis' until the highlights from the night's other game are ready to be shown - invariably this means they end up talking crap for about 15 mins, just waiting for Bill to tell them it's time to look at the highlights.

    They say Beckham is a celeb and a shirt seller etc etc yet they spend the 15 minutes directly after the game talking about him and him alone. Unreal when they could have talked about the game and Rooney.

    It's called "being controversial" upon which they have based the show for over 20 years.

    I watched the Real Madrid vs Lyon game. Great game with Real dominating the first half but failing to put Lyon away. They were always on a tightrope though for a Lyon goal would bring disaster and sure enough it did. Ronaldo, if a bit petulant at time, was still their best player.

    I didn't see the Man U game but I saw the stats afterwards which showed AC Milan dominated possession and had as many shots as Man U and yet were hammered. Strange one.

    Directly after the game they should have been talking about the game and Rooney imo. They laugh at Beckham yet they give him the coverage they gave him. Joke!

    It helps continue it and then they can talk about it again the next time.

    milan played a lot of passes backwards / sidewards had a couple of decent chances to score.. .but utd well deserved of win and if they stepped up a gear could have added a few more goals

    agree with you rafab .. they even had the cheek to keep on about beckham even after they showed him being interviewed after match and they all commented this was only because of the beckham image that he was interviewed ... i thought the panel were there to discuss match / incidends / highlights ... they even spent first 15 mins when they came on air about the fans and glazers and the red knights takeoverbid and mr dunphy reckons utd finished again in 1-3 years !!!!

    +1.

    He ran his socks off all night. Rather him in there than Carrick. We were much more creative. He plays a lot better centrally, which is where he plays for South Korea I think...

    and Messi class. When I heard my good friend Eamo say that Stuttgart would make Braca struggle, I knew it would be a cake walk for Barca.

    Whelan: "It's easier to man mark someone in a poor side".

    Good man Ronnie. Let's have an original thought someday.

    Whelan, Dunphy and Giles together are shockingly bad to listen to. Dunphy says something, Giles agrees, Whelan says something really really obvious. Brutal.

    Also Trevor Steven wasn't much better - making out Messi didnt have a perfect game, jeez I dunno but nearly scoring a hat trick and setting up a goal.............what more did he want?
