Cultured left foot' as opposed to the illiterate and tasteless right foot.

One thing I despise more than anything is hatred towards pundits/critics.

It's their job to analyze and ultimately criticize other teams. There is no such thing as 'anti-arsenal' bias. We've not won any thing for nearly a decade why would any man paid to logically analyze teams and their performances not criticize a team as such?

'It is his bread and butter'

I have never seen anyone take bread and butter onto the football pitch.

He took one for the team

Translation.

Dirty cheat was undone by a better player so crude neanderthal challenges are acceptable.

I use this all the time but still 'he could have scored 3 times that match' or 'City could have scored 5 that half'. But then surely if one of those chances was scored then the following chances would not go into happen..it seems like football fans/commentators have grasped quantum physics.

'If anyone deserves to win the [insert trophy], then its [insert player]'

This annoys me. In the past few weeks its been used more than its ever been used, regarding the PL and Steven Gerrard.

Sorry, but a player only deserves to win a trophy if he contributes to a trophy winning team.

"He's hit the beans on toast". Eh?

"That was going in" when the keeper saved it, as if they are meant to just stand there and watch.

Gervinho

I agree. Your Hansen's, Shearer's and your Linekar's are forever doing that on match of the day.

When a 20-30 million pound flop (or just crap player) happens to play on a trophy winning side and just because they set up a goal or two over the 38 or scored in a shootout that 'the fee was worth it'

Some trophies are won in spite of some players.

The awkward silence when a British player dives but they don't want to say it

It's a game of two halves.

Hitting the woodwork is 'a shot off target'
