    • Raise ur hands up anyone.

      I feel angry when i read their soccer analyst. If their prediction is right, they will yaya papaya and talk as if they already know.

       

      If their prediction is wrong, they will not emphasize on their lousiness and always talk the analysis of the match without bringig up the wrong analysis they made yesterday

       

      I wonder why we are paying to read their nonsense analyst which does not really tell any thing... Crap stuff.... Seriously these guys get paid too easily for their job. Ya.. get paid by us.. the reader... BTW... i dun buy TNP.. but i still feel angry when i read their things...

       

      maybe i am just jealous .. which i think is the real reason.... why these people can get paid just crapping analysis which will not be true in the real match....

    • actually... the 'experts' analysis are not 100 percent bullshit... they do have some reasons and technical explanation of why certain players and tactics and factors are going to explain who will win the game.

       

      However, in the real match... the factors are countless and the net effect of all the factors is unclear because you will not know how these factors weigh by itself compared to the rest and what are their net effect....

       

      I would say their analysis accuracy will only be of level 25 percent out of full 100 percent... but nevertheless... they will always be called ''experts''

      i always get the impression that ian macintosh  is always betting on underdogs, that they have the highest odds, that he is gambling on luck that the underdog win, so he gets more points. (the betting tally thing they have)

    • Analysts will always be analysts.

      How many of them have actually played top level soccer and made a serious career out of it?  Sitting in front of the TV and watching / analysing soccer matches and players is a totally different thing altogether than slugging it out on the field.

      An analogy.

      Will you be more confident when going for surgery done by a doctor with 10 years of surgical experience, or trust a guy who has watched all the episodes on surgery on the Discovery Channel for 10 years? icon_lol.gif
