People being people and making mistakes? Who would have thought it? We're not all perfect in our working lives.

MotD commentary is taken from live reporting, so what they're saying was recorded at the time, so mistakes will be made. Some people thought Josh started against Gillingham and were slagging him off for his 1st half performance, so I think I can allow a commentator mixing up players during a live, fast paced event.

The idea that is a racist attack is also quite ludicrous and hope there is consideration to the severity of that accusation. If you think it is racist, report it. IMHO it is lazy journalism at worst; mistake in the moment at best.

f***ing hell, against United I was convinced that Jensen wasn't on the pitch until he scored and that it was actually Mads Roeslev!

A lot of people think the MotD commentary is recorded after the game just for the clips edited together for the highlights being shown but in reality the commentary is recorded live as the game is taking place. It’s part of the in joke from Alan Partridge’s appearances on the Day Today that for each “Eat My Goal!” clip there’d be another 90 minutes of his nonsense.

Last season at games there were folks around me purring at another sublime Eriksen ball which had actually been played by Jensen and that wasn’t because two fair haired Danes look much the same to a racist.

It's not the first time they have got our players names wrong.

In the Southampton game last season, the BBC commentator called Bryan....Norgaard and then called Wissa....Toney. No excuse for it, piss poor.

Some people close to me in the West Stand avoid all confusion over our players names or ethnicity by simply blaming Mathias Jensen every time we lose the ball or miss a chance.

I do something similar and take a leaf out of the book of referee James Linington and call every player Mads Bech Sorensen.

Go to Bristol Rovers where players do have names,but that means nothing to the home support.
Some knew the numbers on the shirts some didn't.
Some had a go at pronouncing the names,some couldn't.
Away team players were all named effing c""t.

They know who Irene is, though, although they don't know why. Neither do I, but they sing about her every game.

Just catching up with this from boxing day. Absolute quality celebrations for the Wolves winner. Bedlam from Wolves on the pitch, in the dugout, and in the stands.

...... slightly galling....but putting a positive spin on it....last season messrs Murphy and Shearer et Al..... would have been patronising us by talking about it being a great result for Brentford....not anymore eh ..... interesting....#BFC#EPL#Established.

Just watched last nights. Chapman, Shearer and Murphy is such a turgid lineup of pundits. I skipped every word and just watched the highlights

The view of the game , from many angles , is great and sometimes changes your opinion from what you actually witnessed which is great but listening to the drivel broadcast before and after the match is an unbelievable waste of broadcasting time but I suppose it’s cheap to put on. There are very few of these pundits that offer anything more than noise and their own stupid in jokes.

Murphy full of praise for Everton and how they approached the game at City. "not often you see city restricted to such little chances, especially at home" umm, try their last home game mate, and the away team had an xG >2 rather than 0.08

I think it’s ridiculous that reputable shows such as MOTD can’t get players names right. Vast majority of the time seems to happen to black players. Lazy journalism!

This clip, full of praise for Brentford, gets Mbuemo and Onyeka mixed up (around 30sec mark) It’s not difficult!

MOTD: How 'magnificent' Brentford beat Man City

Match of the Day's Alan Shearer tells fellow pundit Ian Wright and Gary Lineker how a "magnificent" Brentford outperformed Manchester City during their dramatic 2-1 win.

In his defence that game was 7 weeks ago so not as obvious a reference point as if it had been the week before. When compared to the majority of Man City’s matches Everton did well and got a decent result, really is nothing to do with us.

He's a boring muppet who would've remembered and mentioned if Fulham had done it at any point since he first joined them.

It's good that Brentford being in the top half of the Premier League table is not worth a mention. Hopefully, for the rest of the season, we'll be that club that affects positions at the top and at the bottom and just sails along in the middle.

Im sure he would, same as Carragher would mention Liverpool and Shearer Newcastle etc but that doesn’t change that it wasn’t some major slight on Brentford, He wouldn’t have mentioned if another mid table team had done it.

Lots of persecution complexes on here.

I know he wouldn't have, that's why he's a rubbish pundit. Would've been a stupid thing to say whether it was us or Wolves who outplayed and beat City in their last game at the Etihad. Never said it was a slight on Brentford?

just caught the leicester game. 2 ogs from same man lol hows your luck

A shame we didn't get a mention, but I can also understand how David Moyes f***ing it up at WHU will be of more interest than "little old Brentford quietly going about their business". To be honest, I almost see it as a compliment and confirmation of how well we are doing, as right now we aren't the story.

I think if we keep doing as we are, pulling off some surprises and potentially start pushing for seventh, then we'll start to get some more air time, but right now I think the BBC etc see us as a safe pair of hands, which I'll take on 1st Jan!

Yes, it’s nice that us doing well is now routine enough not to be interesting to anyone else. I’ll be quite happy if beating Liverpool tomorrow mainly results in a post mortem about them.

If they’d done a post-match it’d only have been Klopp’s whinging and a debate over how much they needed to spend this window so no great loss.
