They're useless at judging offside.

The stress of watching free online streaming is most streams are Yank - it's hard going.

Impressed with Columbia. Similar style to the mens team in Brazil, and similarly not as effective as it seems.

"she does good feet"

I've heard that one used in a VERY different context.

I wonder what their equivalents are of
"Bloody shite Cusack"

Or

"Button yer pockets down, it's orgasm time!"

"she does good feet"

I've heard that one used in a VERY different context.

Was someone dribbling? That would probably explain it.

 Think yourselves lucky we over here get it all the time. Mind you we also get Ray "Shakespeare" Hudson on Bein Sport. Although he is from Newcastle he commentates as though he is writing poetry and shouting at the same time, in his Geordie accent which he has not lost.

 He tends to mostly cover La Liga and has orgasms every time Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo and Suarez are on the ball.    Please anyone else from over the pond, tell me I am right.  However, now NBC cover the  Premier League we have a fella from Leicester called Arlo White who is brilliant, he teams up with Lee Dixon and Graham Le Seau, so things are getting better. They are also at the games and not commentating from a screen.

 The worst part as far as American Commentators who do that is that they always say the free kick is for a foul they have seen, because like us they are not able to see the linesman'e flag go up for offside. A few seconds later it's " Oh, that was offsides", not offside.

Another one by the way is when someone has passed to ther opposition or has lost the ball in a tackle it is a "turnover".

Yank phrases are unfortunately infiltrating our language and thinking more and more, i always have the opinion we are ten years behind them in everything we do, fashion, technology etc.
Our country has stopped thinking for itself and just blindly follows them in almost everything.
