James Richardson (football italia)

You know - the guy that presents Football Italia... it's a shame he hasn't found his way onto any of the more mainstream channels, he's knowledgeable and a good presenter, and seems a likeable chap.

Also, how cool is Leonardo on the BBC world cup panel? Such an erudite and articulate bloke, makes a nice change from Merk Lerensern.

Did you see a clip of the BBC pundits doing kick-ups? Leonardo was doing all his skills, flicking it up, catching it between his shoulders, flicking it back up again etc... he then flicked it to Ian Wright who controlled it with one touch and then volleyed it miles away in the "'ave it!!" style.

"Golazzo" = great goal

Maybe he has had offers before, but simply enjoys sunning it up in Italy earning a decent wage watching football every weekend and presenting a show once a week.
