Now don't get me wrong, I'm not one for writing to Bt sport to complain over the commentators every time we get beat, but this lad is plain awful.
I didn't like him as a player, thought he played the game the wrong way and would try to get people sent off, which to be honest is the worst sort if professional.
My biggest problem is his analyst of the games, I missed the Liverpool mancity game and so waited all day for it to come on MOTD and enjoyed the game, I then sat and tried to listen to D Murphy break down how we managed to outplay them, only for Savage to start ranting an raving bout how they were very poor.
Which is fine, it was more to do with his broad Accent getting more and more existed, to the point he was just talking over everyone and ya couldn't make out what was bring said.
Please stop using this idiot, even ex pros don't respect him ( scholes)!
Sorry rant over.
I've had enough of Savage!

His comments used to leave me cold. Not any more though; if he comes on the box I have one of three automatic choices. Mute button. Channel change button. Off button.
One of BTs failing is their choice of "professional, or ex-professional football" commentators. They are awful. On the other hand, I hold on to what Danny Murphy says, he's good at commentating.

Savage and Owen are both terrible.
Thats the biggest concern about BT Sport getting CL next season.
Sky's CL coverage is superb, with a truly European feel with people like Gullit, Henry, Ballack etc who have been there and done that and know about European teams.
If BT try and do the CL with Savage and Owen its going to be absolutely horrendous.

To be fair R1 it will only be as poor as ITV has been over the past 10 years...

I know ITV are woeful, but BT have the budget to be better, and they will have all the games, not just the 1 a week that ITV have.

Sky have 25 years on BT. It will take time for them to match up to Sky's football production expertise.

I dont mind Keown actually he clearly knows his stuff and is fairer than i expected him to be. Redknapp is my main problem with Sky. I dont know what he actually offers.

I remember Savage saying that because Man City had the better individuals; if they had matched our formation they would have beaten us. I could not believe how ridiculous that comment was. It's an insult he's paid to offer such an uneducated insight. I'm sure there are plentiful examples to further illustrate his incompetence.
