The Best of Eamon Dunphy

Here is a compilations of some of my favourite Eamon Dunphy rants. For those of you unfamiliar with the Dunph, this is one of Ireland's most controversial pundits - he's big-mouthed, opinionated and would argue with a lamp post if given the opportunity. Agree with him or not, Eamo is always great fun to listen to. Even though I disagree with Eamon a lot, I still find some of his rants hilarious. That's why I've compiled this list of excerpts so that you can see what the man himself is like. There are still a great many Dunphy classics that I could not find - but what is in this video is all I could squeeze into 10 minutes anyway.

This is just a bit of fun, so don't go starting hateful arguments just because you disagree with what he said or he bashed your team. Personally, I think most of the stuff he says in this video is absolute rubbish - which is exactly why it's fitting for an Eamon Dunphy video! That said, I'll be deleting any hateful comments and misbehaviour by wind up merchants. You've been warned!

Sit back and enjoy.

Here's a list of classic Eamon Dunphy quotes.

On Rio Ferdinand:
"Ferdinand is a clown. He was a liability for the
first goal and he is always a liability. It was Jan Vennegoor of
Hesselink against Rio Ferdinand of Barclays Bank."
"a tramp"

On Fabio Cannavarro:
"If Rio Ferdinand is worth £100,000 a week, then
this guy is worth €100 million . . . . . a day"

On Luis Garcia:

"They (Liverpool) should put Garcia where he belongs—in the dustbin."

On Cristiano Ronaldo:

"The way Ronaldo clicks his heels, is the most wicked thing in the game."
"a simple cheat" or "Poof ball."

On Kevin Kilbane:

"Kilbane's head is better than his feet. If only he had three heads, one on the end of each leg."

On Michael Carrick:

"Carrick was signed for Spurs a few years back for £3m. That's the level he is at. He is a nothing player. He is one-paced. He doesn't have the personality to always get on the ball like a United player should. "

On the Alex Ferguson and Gordon Strachan feud:

Eamon: "Scots they're either nice or they're horrid and these two are horrid.
Bill: "The Scots wont like that Eamon, that's bordering on racism".
Eamon: "Its not racism its ethnic criticism Bill."

On the very hostile boardroom at Real Madrid:

"Bill, Bill... those directors over there are on another planet. They're on mushrooms or something...THEY'RE ON ACID BILL!!!"

On John Hartson:

"Bill, Hartson is not a 7million pound player...its a disgrace, a shambles! This is the state of football today Bill. I have a clip here of why Hartson is NOT a £7million player....Roll it there Bill!(literally 1 second in to the clip) OKAY, HOLD IT THERE BILL!!! (draws a circle around Hartson's arse) Bill, that is NOT the arse of a £7million player!''

On Liverpool vs Barcelona:

"I was hoping in the last fifteen minutes that Barcelona would beat them. I've made my mind up on Benitez tonight. He's a nice man but he's got a huge negative streak running through him. Liverpool was terrible in the second half. They didn't play football. If that was a concert, you'd boo. Gerrard: found out. A nothing player. They were terrible. Terrible."

On Harry Kewell:

"Kewell should have been yanked off the pitch at half time and put in a hot bath, a boiling hot bath."

"Fat and a clown. A fat clown for all to see"

On Djibril Cisse:

"Here we have Cisse, right wing, attempts to put in a cross, BANG...hits the full back, again BANG hits the full back, BANG...off the full back again, and once more, BANG...smacks the full back again.... Millions of euro and he can't clear the first man, I mean...what's he trying to do to the full back here, Kill him??"

On Sergio Ramos:

"He's a nothing player, he's like Paul McShane on steroids, costs more but just as likely to get you shot in the head."

Before Man United hammered Roma 7-1:

"O'shea not good enough, Ferdinand and Brown dodgy, Ronaldo a puff ball, Fletcher and Carrick nothing players, Rooney has never done it on the big stage."

On Barcelona:
"After watching Watford against Manchester City last night that was
like a bubblebath. It was beautiful."

On Garth Crooks and Sven Goran Eriksson:
"ha, ha, ha, that's the first time you'll see sex between 2 men live
on the BBC"

During the coverage of Euro 2004:
"You need dictatorships and poverty to produce great footballers."

[jdkit]

cant believe it didnt have the clip before the ireland cameroon game in 2002.

[SaigheadBhriste]

@jdkit I would've put it in, but I couldn't find it when I was putting this together back in 2009. This compilation is only the tip of the iceberg as far as Eamon is concerned, there's loads more I would've loved to have included but couldn't find. He's had some real crackers over the years, including taking out a bottle of whiskey during the ad break and not hiding it away in time when the cameras came back on!

[Seiferjesus]

"Ahhh now Eamon you cant say that!"

How many times have we heard that :)

Thumps up if you think Dunphy should replace Gray at Sky!!

[LEDZEP9292]

Thumbs up If you think Dunphy should replace Andy Gray

[badger5079]

Dunphy is a rat.

[MrMarcusirish]

As a Scouser I have to agree with Dunph's view on Liverpool against Barcelona, but then again Eamonn compared to recent performances the Liverpool of 08 I would swap at a heartbeat- those days under Benitez seem like a lifetime ago!!

[MrMarcusirish]

I tell you what he may talk shite Dunphy, but he's been proved right over 'puffball' Ronaldo- he called Messi the true footballer and for that you can't fault him?

[richieakasopp]

He's a legend but at least ronaldo didn't end another players career or go on mutv and slag off all of his teammates unlike a certain overrated judas knacker from cork

[keveydaking]

eamon dunphy is the best thing that has come out of ireland

[roryphelan]

Better than Apres Match.

[swarshy37]

Eamon Dunphy is a legend.

[smiley0800]

[89forks]
