Phil Neville's comments on Tomáš Rosický on MOTD2

efb

He said he'd two-foot him, because of his wonderful pass today.

Surely this is a scummy comment and has no place in football?

CSF

Yeah he will regret that one alright.

efb

I hope he gets the Chiles treatment. P45 time

Trying to create a bit of controversy around himself I'd say!

Perhaps, if you're a sensitive Sally that is.

For the rest of us non drama queens, it was clearly said in jest and not to be taken seriously.

I don't think such things as a career ending tackle have any place on TV. Even paddy power twitter know he over stepped the mark

He's probably just angry that he doesnt know how to make a cup of instant coffee.

Richard Hillman

My god, he was only joking.

Kirby

Get off the high horses lads. Have none of you ever played football? The lad showboating in training or in a game often got hatcheted.

It's not pretty and I personally dislike that laddish, hardman culture but it was very, very common. He didn't say anything outlandish.

I didn't see MOTD unless there's more too it then that it looks very jokey!

Errr any pundit advocating a two footed and possible career ending tackle should be dropped by the BBC. Disgraceful comment and it is backing up the idea that thuggery on the pitch is the way to deal with skilful players!

I can just imagine the out roar in here if Thierry Henry for example said something similar.

Drexel

Please please please take him off match of the day. He's awful

two-footing a player isn't overstepping the mark???

Its endorsing career ending tackles

There's an Arsenal player doing just that.

It's not pleasant but it most certainly is a part of football. Stop being a drama queen.

Henry wouldn't be able to do it anyway ! I am not too sure if Phil Neville would be able to do that much damage here.

Still it was a damn stupid thing for him to say and did he actually say it twice.

He is a twat prat.

Not only career ending but life ending if he jumps too high and catches Rosicky right in the face. Phil Neville should be done for inciting violence. :pac:

Harry Palmr

Anyone who knows anything about the culture of the training ground would not be shocked if fancy-dan behaviour were undercut with an elbow or a two foot sliding tackle.

efb

If it was some Soccer AM trash I'd understand but its MOTD, tv's flagship football program.

No, but you blew the comment up into something it wasn't because he said it about an Arsenal player. If he had said it about some non leaguer, there would be no thread here.

Good for you.

So you being an Arsenal fan and it being said about Rosicky are completely unrelated. You would have started this thread regardless......... :rolleyes:

You trying to say that with a straight face?

I would like to remind the jury that this is mr efb's phone wallpaper.

The prosecution rests.

That would be all inadmissible as its conjecture.

I don't have time for career ending tackles etc. And enough of the nancy name calling cr@p. I'm sure boxing is more physical than football...

Phil neville is just a goose who should be ignored.

That's it really.
