The New Guys.

The Good..

Clarence Seedorf - Clearly a smart guy (for a footballer).
Klinsmann - Relaxed and quite funny.

The Bad..
Edgar Davids - Could he look and sound more bored?
Ade - I can only hear about 1 in 5 words!

Best Colour Commentory..
Robbie Savage (5 Live) - Genuinely funny and very self depreciating about his own reputation.

Worst Colour Commentory -
Mick McCarty - His voice is so boring and monotone it actually blends in with those pesky horns.

The regulars :-
Hansen - Solid as ever, just a natural at this now.
Dixon - Slowly turning into one of the better ones.
Shearer - Offers nothing.
Townsend - Awful as always.
Earle - Haha.
Southgate - While he doesn't offer much tactically wise (also see Middlebro!) he's probably the best of the ITV bunch.
Keegan - Meh.

Lineker is always much better when he's not following a scrip (normally with those awful puns) and just talks to the panel naturally.
Chiles is so much better than the charisma void that is Steve Ryder, have managed to overcome the stiled atmosphere that generally surrounds ITV's coverage.

Shearer has also adopted that strange Half geordie - half speaking clock voice popularized by Jack Charlton and Chris Waddle.

I noticed Woy turned up yesterday for the BBC looking like he'd been at the Just for Men bottle - Still you can't hate him, well not till he goes to Liverpool anyway :)

I wonder is Mick was being Ironic when constantly showing his distain at the negative tactics the Greeks were using last night.
