I know some people aren't big fans of Lineker, but he's obviously got loads of experience from playing the game etc. which makes him a worthy host.

I was wondering what experience Adrian Chiles has got???

What footballing qualifications do you need to prompt others to give their opinions and discuss the blindingly obvious?
All you need is someone up there who doesn't get tongue tied and keeps the show moving.
It's only football anyway.

Can't stand Chiles and won't watch the build up to any match when he's on. I noticed ITV used Matt Smith for yesterday's match. Much better than Chiles and costs them far less.

Smith is insipid. Chiles was brilliant on Working Lunch and I think he's a good presenter.


We need more of this

kenny the Mullery v Alison clip was very interesting. It put me in mind of one piece of TV where Clough and Cruyff were panelists (78 WC?), and Clough told him he should still be playing and not sat there giving opinions which no one was interested in. Grin

Chiles was brilliant on Working Lunch
I totally agree Kenny
and on the One show

But immediately he switched to ITV and they gave him a massive build up...he fell short
He needed to the low key treatment...just let him impress people if he can, hype does not suit him
just my opinion
Report kenny mann • June 19, 2014 2:35 PM BST
Yes I sort of agree mate. Noticed I downgraded him from brilliant to good.

I think if he had a better face and no accent and said the same things people would like him.

Doesn't Chiles support West Bromwich Albion?

That makes me think of frank Skinner who is another WBA supporter.
He'd be good as the presenter.
He might crack a few jokes as well.

I don't mind Chiles but dislike his Polish accent

During half time in the germany game he launched a diatribe on, basically how sh1t the game is.  Because of the diving and he mentioned how the yanks just laugh at the game because of all the theatrics.  The three ex professional gimps with him all disagreed "oh it is just part of the game" they said.  Predictably.  Fair play to him for standing up and saying it despite earning lots of money from within the game, we need more like him.
