He's ok. He is never going to please everyone - but I like the fact he is not one of the old boys club, and he can keep a conversation moving. And he is a bloke that would pay to watch the game. I do not get that impression from many of the presenters.

I like his style to be honest, just a normal bloke with a passion for footy. Rather him than most others

I think he is quite good, just the stiffs like Keene, Southgate and Townsend that ruin ITV

He's ok and very likeable for me. However watching Roy Keane on ITV just makes me feel uncomfortable; he's clearly an intelligent man but has doesn't seem to relate to the others or do humour in any way.

I think that is why I like him. He doesn't do agreement.

Yeh, but there's disagreeing, and there's disagreeing and not understanding the concept that someone else could have, and is entitled to have, a different opinion to you. It's verging on the autistic spectrum.

Chiles is just too uncharismatic for me, the only reason he escapes harsher judgement is that when he starts Andy Townsend has usually just finished. ITV football is an absolute joke imo.

he thinks he's funnier than he actually is - reminds me of the person at work or at weddings who keeps telling jokes and laughs at his own jokes and after the 3rd one and failing to notice no one laughing you just wish would do one and shut up! Keane looks like he thinks Southgate is a simpleton too! best dismissive look he's got!

lol ITV is crap anyway when it comes to footie, have been ever since the demise of Brian Moore and the Big Match back in the 70's and 80's. They played second fiddle to BBC then, and third fiddle to Sky and the Beeb now,

I do though quite like Adrian Chiles, he is as others have said a little less staid than the usual line up of 'experts'. More of a real fan somehow.

Get Dan Walker in. Far far more interesting bloke, and actually has a bit of personality.

Oh, and get rid of Keane, Southgate, Dixon and Townsend at the same time. Pile of absolute dross.

Liked him when he did MOTD2 but has got more annoying as time has gone on.

Spot-on there,MotD2 was building up a decent following with different guests every week,however just like Des the money from ITV was to good to turn down,but neither have/were the same on ITV.
