Disregard how biased he is towards his beloved Liverpool, but surely he must be the worst commentator working at the moment? Gets so much wrong it’s crazy. First two minutes off the game and Salah quite clearly offside, yet he claims he was miles on yet the replay shows he was offside

Once again a commentator with a background in the club he is commentating. Its as dumb as the world unique perspective that refs are allowed to ref games from there own city.

Think English football deserves a bit more professionalism and integrity than that.

I quite like him. Think he’s unbiased and fair. Very praising of the Albion and can see good football unlike some on here...

He is absolutely dreadful and shouldn’t be anywhere near Liverpool games. Darren Fletcher also a terrible commentator.

If you disregard last week v Villa, I think Keown is usually pretty decent tbh

It's all very well the broadcasters giving an option of watching without the fake crowd noise; why can't they offer a the choice of having none of the god-awful commentary?

Cannot stand him, mainly for his horrendous accent.

His commentary so far has basically been “Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool Liverpool.”

With the occasional mention of “Liverpool”.

It's very easy to watch without the commentary if you know the trick if doing it - sadly getting rid of the f***ing fake crowd noises is not possible for most of us.

Well yes, quite. Being used to watching non-league and youth football, I'd like to have the choice to still hear the stadium noise - the hollering of players and coaches etc., rather than the prattling of pundits and blowhard commentators

Yep, he's really enjoyable. Perhaps he needs to say lovely things about us all game then there won't be a thread on him.
