Of cos, Martin was selected the best commentator in Primer League in 2002.
He is really smart, and he's always willing to look more points of view in same situation!
I remember I read an article in internet, that's an interview from David Ellary, the best English referee in 1990s
He
said," some commentators are good, for example, John Mortson, but the
best, is Martin Tyler from Sky Sports, he's willing to ask the
referee's point of the game."
If you watched the game between Arsenal vs Man. Utd on Saturday night, you see this incident!
When
Rafael scored the goal in 89mins, then 4th official showed up how many
mins for add it time (of that game. Here is the commentary between
Martin Tyler and Robbie Earle
M, "6 add in mins.... goodness me"
R,
" that's a long time, that's a long stoppage through injury for Manuel
Almunia and all the stoppage at well. A little bit long time to me.'
M,
"Well, 3 mins for Almunia... add in 30 seconds for each substitution
supposed to add on and, 30 seconds for each goal as well, so you get
enough, arent' you?!"
Martin was saying that last sentence peacefully.
This
is showing how great for a commentator is, Martin knows what'll be
happened on the field, he learns professionally. Supposed that Robbie
Earle (ex-soccer player) should explain why that should be 6 mins for
add in time. But Robbie failed to do it. Martin did it properly. Well
Done, Martin!
If you watched English commentary on Saturday, you
are blessed and you should get some good commentary.. but if you
watched it in Chinese commentary.. I feel sorry to you.
By the
way, when will see some Chinese commentators could do similar things as
Martin Tyler? I don't think anyone can do this like Martin in next 20
years!
Lack of professionalism, lack of sense... and only blah blah blah.... really sad for Chinese commentators in HK.

yes, I listened from his commentary since 198x.
He's still broadcasting some games when you watch NOW TV in Premier League.
I give you the Wiki link... so you know him a little bit more:

Martin Tyler is also the voice-over commentator for the FIFA video game series on PS3 and Xbox 360 alongside Andy Gray.. so you know how good he is.. right?!
