I watched the game last night - didn't think there was much wrong with Basheer (no worse than any other commentator).
The guy couldn't get excited with three hookers and a pharmacy full of Viagra. He has the world's most boring voice after that guy who accompanies Phil Liggett. And the other night he didn't get a single tactical comment correct. He made some comment about Pienaar needing to make more runs down the right flank to get more crosses in, despite the fact that he was playing in the hole and when he DID make a cross, he botched it completely.
Gary Bloom was excellent. I really enjoyed listening and he's the first guy since Martin Tyler where I've actually wanted to hear what he has to say.

I don't mind him, it's quite enjoyable listening to him at 4am talking like he's giving a speach to a bunch of four year olds in kindergarten.
