Anyone missing Ray Hudson? (the football commentators thread, because we need one)

[Gnidrologist]

Well, basically this. In Messi era this guy went absolutely nuts. He loved that guys so much, it was obvious. But in general, he loved beautiul genius football and had a rich vocabulary to describe it in detail. Not everyone liked it, but he's definitely one of legends of commentary. He praised Madrid and any other club players and shouted for their achievements as true professional.

What i find in modern/latest football (and all sports) commentary that they all seem like created by ChatGPI. Bland, soulless, some minor substance to distract you, but basically not giving a fuck.

Can you spot some good commentators in now days that aren't just drones of corporate media? Also pundits.

Maybe you'll like Peter Drury.

It's Premier League though. Loved his commentary during the 2022 World Cup as well, especially in the final when Argentina won.

[Iniesta Ultra]

He got disillusioned with Barca after Messi left can't blame him.

Peter Drury is the GOAT
