With rumours of Alan Hansen‘s departure from Match Of The Day bubbling up again, we may just have found the BBC a worthy replacement for the veteran pundit in the unlikely form of Rihanna.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The Bajan R&B princess took to Twitter last night during England’s disappointing defeat to Uruguay in the team’s second World Cup group match – surprising and delighting English fans with her analysis of the game.
She began with an exhortation to Steven Gerrard and the team: “ENGLAND whatchu gon do??!”
But swiftly followed with the observation that the Uruguay goalkeeper was playing well: “Fernando Muslera be on his s**t tho!”
Echoing thousands of English fans watching on TV at home, she celebrated England’s equaliser with the tweet: “Roooonnnnnnnneeeeeeeyyyyyy”
But 10 minutes later – when Luis Suarez scored to put Uruguay in the lead again – she added: “Ooohhhhhh S******T!!!!!”
And then observed: “Man they know better than to give Suarez that much room bruh!
“Uruguay defense is almost disrespectful!!! 2 good”
And to echo the title of one of RiRi’s recent tracks – What Now for England?
