That's quite the poor article.
You can think of Simon what you want but to write bad about him after that Bayern match? Come on. That shit was boring as fuck, you can hardly blame him for a lack of tension.
Haha, good lord, why in the hell do you have a commentator there in the first place? Its his fucking job to moderate, to talk bullshit when a game becomes as boring like this or Barca 2008-11. Even Kevin Großkreutz would be decent if he would spectate a close 4-4. True skill shows when you have a one sided match, were one team just maintain their lead - entertainment and rhetorics are needed.
And of course he is to blame, that guy was so embarrising that I thought the broadcast just stopped sending the commentary. And his smartass reviews about both clubs were cringeworthy. As bad as many people here in Germany make Reif, those ARD/ZDF guys are way worse. Rethy, Barthels and Simon are such a miscast, when compared to many others like Fuss or commentators from other countries.
