Lazy thinking of ESPN to employ a random German just because Klinsmann is doing well over there and was a good pundit in 2010.
Ballack makes no attempt to pronounce names properly: e.g. he pronounces the surname of David Villa the same as Aston Villa.
I'm OK with Darke and Macca although I would prefer Peter Brackley. When Darke mentions games from past tournaments (like the 1976 Cz v Ned semi) he shows no signs of having watched them at the time. He's professional enough but isn't he just a boxing man who got lucky to be given the soccer?
Lalas is always good: far more communicative about defending techniques than Hansen or Lawro.
