Robbie Savage must have had a few cups of coffee (or a few buckets of Red Bull) before he took the gantry today.
We’d previously noticed that Savage sometimes sounds like a pirate when commentating, but today the BT co-commentator, who was covering the FA Cup tie between Brighton & Hove Albion against Arsenal, was more excitable than a kid on Christmas Eve.
The former midfielder also offered his expert insight throughout. ‘That’s why they’re playing in the Championship’ Savage said after Brighton conceded a third goal, and was also on hand to reveal that Walcott will be happy after scoring. The former Strictly Come Dancing star also managed to stretch four syllable words into seven syllable words.
But Twitter did not approve, at all.
Difficult to put my finger on the most annoying thing about Robbie Savage. I've decided it's the fact that he's breathing.

Robbie Savage, yet again, somehow unable to comprehend the concept of very good players being better than worse players.
