Gary Linekar is probably most likely the presenter because he’s warm, charming, witty, knowledgable, formerly a top level professional and is loved and respected by his peers, colleagues and generations of football fans.
He’s basically good at his job in a way no other current presenter is.
The BBC want that as much as the prem do.
Anyone with any broadcasting industry experience or insider knowledge?
I'm wondering if the BBC had to offer up Gary Lineker as the host to win the Saturday highlights package from the EPL rights bid process?
