THE WORLD CUP is on again which means we’re getting near daily doses of Eamon Dunphy. Eamon has always been a man that divides opinions be it on Roy Keane, Neymar or football in general.

But how do we really feel about Eamo?

Sometimes it feels like he doesn’t do his research.

Eamon Dunphy has just said Allison is "good" and is "rumoured to be heading to Europe to play for one of the big clubs." Allison of AS Roma.

Who else remembers Eamon Dunphy saying Ronaldo was a nothing player and a cod?

He stops any team from getting too ahead of themselves.

English football commentary needs an Eamon Dunphy type, who’ll tear the team to shreds and call them a shower of amateur shites even after a win #ENGTUN

And many of us would still rather watch him than the BBC.

Would pay good money to see Eamon Dunphy thrown into the middle of that BBC studio to fuck up those constantly whining bastards. Proper cat among the pigeons

We have to admit though that he is a bit of a spoofer sometimes.

I wonder if Richard Dunne has said anything to Eamon Dunphy about calling him Derek Dunne in Roy Keane's first autobiograhy

Eamon Dunphy is Ireland's gift to the world, I honestly have no idea why anyone would rather watch the BBC coverage over rte. It's like a comedy sketch. https://t.co/7CR8TzTIXe

But at the end of the day he just wants what’s best for Ireland.

Eamon Dunphy on Saudi Arabia's free-flowing attacking football: "I wish to God Ireland could play like that."

And he’s still better than the BBC.
