Alan Shearer a bit reluctant to call it what it is isn’t he? Gary Lineker will always be my number 1 most liked footballer & that’s cos he’s just an all round GOOD GUY. .. Absolute legend

What’s made abt the wrighty clip is Keane is at right there and he said many of the same things abt pogba and dying his hair etc etc

Rashford got stick because he was earning 400k a week and he was mopping around the football pitch putting 0 effort into his performances. He getting going on nights put before games, he constantly being fines for being late. Somebody needs to challenge this nonsense on air!

I’m sure maguire, Henderson and grealish would think differently

Ian Wright isn’t bright. Gary isn’t much better.

Beckham, gazza, Rooney, grealish, Pickford, ronaldo, kane, mount, Maguire. All had stick in the press, Rooney was called shrek for fuck sake, his family ridiculed. Honestly lineker doesn’t half talk utter nonsense

Shearer completely dodging the point Lineker was making. Out of his depth.

Big ups to Gary doing the show and getting his perspective out there even with a cold/flu

What about beckham there was an effigy of him being hung if I’m not mistaken

Shearer speaking but saying absolutely nothing. They’re all racist. Gary gets invited to the BBQ though…

Absolutely! Stochastic Terrorism. Similar things happened to Meghan- the avocado episode . It was good that Kate was being given avocado but Meghan by eating avocado was affecting the rainforests. Despicable prejudice!

Same goes for Dutch black players like Seedorf, Davids, Kluivert, Depay, Bogarde etc. All been hurt by the same racist energy described here.

Agree completely. It’s the media causing this though. Fuelling the hate online. Seen some truly disgusting takes on Jude, all completely unwarranted. He’s an absolute star footballer, and he starts in the 10 for me. Need to spread the #Jude love, drown out the hate

I cant believe this bullshit. Whats Bellingham been so hard done by? Ive genuinely not seen anything. Is it just a journalist?? Fuck me if its just that then talk about milking it about colour. Kane,Beckham,Maguire,Rooney...and thats just off the top of my head.

I don’t wholly agree/disagree but it’s still a minority and overtly right wing media that get far too much airtime when they chat shit. That being said this country has issues with egotists, especially early doors, you can throw in Cantona, Brian Clough, Beckham, Di Canio, etc

Wayne Rooney must be a figment of my imagination. @GaryLineker

A lot of these journalists would be painting roundabouts if it weren't for their pesky 9-to-5

Linekar has lots of bitter losers baying for his blood when in reality he's always been excellent at his work. They round on individuals because the whole football community together absolutely dwarfs them in size, puts them to shame

You’re still getting deported.

Sick of this virtue signalling BS. Plenty of white players and managers been crucufied by our press too. Beckham the obvious one in 98. Graham Taylor was on front page of a paper with a Turnip on his head. Steve McClaren as the 'Wolly with the brolley' ring any bells? Fuck off!

Absolutely bollocks the lot of it!! Fuck off with that shit! There has been criticism of countless white managers and players from the press back to the days of Bobby Moore in 1970 to present day. If Bellingham was white and dropped nobody would be talking about it. Just fuck off

So let's see Beckham Southgate Rooney all have had the same sort of nonsense.

Such a lefty fucking retard. Fuck off man

boring, men watching men run around in shorts, how g . .

David Beckham got crucified, Rooney, Harry maguire was made a meme out of it….. that had to be racist also ?

Lineker 100% correct. Media attacks on Rashford and especially Sterling were abysmal and would never have been covered in the same way if was white player. Rashford would be 'never forgets where he came from' and Sterling would be 'carries memory of his father as inspiration'

What a load of bollox, I could name plenty. Scott mctominay got abuse after abuse, In terms of England players harry kane got absolutely ridiculed last World Cup, because of the way he kept dropping back playing effictively as a CM Gareth we Southgate is another ..

I’d say Jude Bellingham is the best English player I’ve seen in my lifetime and I’ve seen most of them in the last 30 years. He has an ego. He deserves to have one.

What are they talking about ? He was awful he kept giving the ball away and it's not the first time he has played like that in an England shirt. Gomes is better than Bellingham and so is Grealish. Everyone says he is brilliant he needs to start showing it.

It’s racism that’s embedded in the media whether that’s articles, newspapers or social media. Too much shit is said that needs to be called out. When Sterling got that Gun tattoo he got slaughtered for it but if Foden or Gordon got that tattoo i’m not sure it would be the same.

He is indeed.

Lineker is a legend

Gary is a wanker

Why has it got to be about race, Kane. Beckham, Rooney, Owen etc all had the press hounding them. I’ve never witnessed anyone black or white get the levels of abuse Beckham did after France 98. Put the blame where it belongs with the lazy journalists.
