Gibbs with the bantz: He looks more like a football than a football coach.

I think I'm never going to get that 8:40 back in my life... Totally wasted
Thank you for the warning.
lol i would lose it if they did one of those celebrations in a game
Not sure about the Frying Pan but The Lawnmower would be pretty great to see.
The bomb would actually be pretty good
I can see the FA fine now
Can it be Mesut's and Elneny's special celebration
I can see why you got downvoted, but I thought it was pretty funny.and racist
Thanks allah
Saving it for December game v West Ham.
i hope so.
We have been playing pretty well since, just saying!
That Reggie Watts song needs to be sung at the Emirates
In the past few years we've sent Piers Morgan and James Corden to America.
How have they not declared war on us?
Maybe because they also got John Oliver?!
Or as he is more commonly known in Britain...'John Who?'
That guy who was on Mock The Week that one time ten years ago. You remember that guy.
no worries, we are quite smitten with John Who
Would be more than happy to send all 3 back hah
I'd like to keep John Oliver, thank you very much.
I'm indifferent on Corden.
And Piers can go to Mars for all I care.
Hey now, Corden is pretty funny. A lot of late night show skits fall flat, you gotta do like 5-10 new ones each week.
If Schwimmer was one of the guests on that episode, then it gives it a little extra bump, and adds in some jokes for the interview portion.
Piers Morgan is shit.
I actually enjoyed Jason Sudeikis taking over the [Tottenham Hotspurs] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KeG_i8CWE8)
This was actually much more funny, I would have liked if they did something similar for us.
Anyone else find this really unfunny?
It's since he's been taken to the US and obviously been given a script with such little room to manoeuvre.
Check out his video of Smithy and the England Team, its actually hilarious. Sad to see him making such shit content, but he must be making serious P.
I'm not too familiar with Corden but it seems like he's blown up this past year. Of the few clips I've seen he's not really that funny, most of his stuff falls flat. Can anyone explain the appeal?
His talk show stuff isn't that great, possibly because it is geared towards Americans and relies on his accent and flamboyancy to make it funny. In a League of Their Own, he acts very differently to his camp, clueless persona that he uses in the US. Before moving to the US he was one of the lads, basically your cheeky fat mate down the pub. He co-wrote (and was one of the main characters in) a TV show called Gavin and Stacey, which is amazing and probably the best example of why he was famous in the UK for such a long time.
However, I think he struggled with his UK personality in the US for a long time so had to keep on trying until something stuck. Even his Adele Carpool Karaoke is much better because he is just one of those cheeky but normal guys (it might be because she is English so he relaxes more or can relate to her more?). But I guess the "I take myself very seriously but I'm an idiot" got better ratings in America.
I think if this sketch was for British TV it would be much more like what if your mate who phones up talk sport took over a training session, rather than what if your drama teacher took over?
Basically watch Gavin and Stacey and you'll realise he is actually very capable of writing really good comedy.
Exactly this, he did this sketch for Red Nose day with the England squad which is mildly better
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uq_cwwWcyqQ
I love this video! I think just grounding the jokes with context is what makes the biggest difference. This Arsenal sketch could be with the Chelsea, United or City players and it would be exactly the same.
Also for anyone that doesn't get his speech at the end, it's from the England footie anthem World in Motion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAnccZDLUVA
He wrote and acted in 'The Wrong Mans' which is pretty good, you should watch it if you liked Gavin and Stacy
Thought I was the only one who liked that show, never seen anyone else mention it
yeah I've never heard anyone talk about it or anything, don't know why since it's on BBC
And Netflix!
Americans associate his british accent as being witty. So even the most boring of jokes become elevated just because of that.
On top of it he attracts rather famous people to his show and seems to focus more on candidness, which is something that people like in general. Speaking specifically about his karaoke car routines. But this also fits.
I dont think hes all that great but i do like some of the videos. Hes preferable to other late night hosts (not all).
He seems a bit like Fallon to me, just an easygoing kind of crowd pleaser, whereas guys like Ferguson, Conan and Letterman had their really specific styles.
+1 for ferguson, i honestly think he was/is the best out of the current pool of hosts. No idea why cbs stopped it.
Fun Fact: Craig was actually an Arsenal fan. In an interview with this actress who used to live in Islington, he says that he used to visit every weekend for Arsenal games when he used to live in London as well.

CBS didn't axe him, he quit.
Do you know why?
And now he hosts celebrity name game which might be the worst daytime tv show on the air. holy shit he and it are awful.
Didn't, Craig leave on his own? I though he was excellent as well, he could drop the act and deliver serious info and whatnot in a very intelligent manner.

Yeah. Corden is a counter balance to Colbert and Meyers is a counter balance to Fallon.
Conan is hands down the best. Watch his remotes on Youtube.
Conan' interviews are meh, and his monologues don't stand out either. But his segments when he goes off set and visits places or go around his office are legendary.
Fallon has the best games and bits and skits. Also guest interaction. Interviews are very hit and miss (usually miss. But when it hits, it hits really big)
Kimmel has the best interviews imo (I miss Ferguson though). They seem relatively genuine, and asks good questions. Doesn't excessively interrupt guests, but also doesn't let it bore.
Seth Meyers interviews are also great (asks very unique questions), but the rest of the show is lacking.
Colbert has had his moments, but so far has been lackluster. Still seems to be getting his feet wet. His best segments are the ones he's most candid and real.
Corden reminds me a lot of Jimmy Fallon when he was on Late Night. Very free, untethered, flowing, and fun. He can't really carry an interview very well though, he relies on the guest. So he's also hit and miss there.
I think that's all of them.
Good analysis. I used to watch Fallon a lot, but then I just found him too fake. Conan's self deprecating type humour just works, which you see less of in the interviews - I often skip those on Youtube, not really interested in celebrities as such. He contributed to some of the early Simpsons, which I think is fairly common knowledge for those that know him.
Would recommend the subreddit r/conantravels. You will find some good old skits. This is a good one.

Shout Out to JORDAN SCHLANSKY.
My favorite part of Conan is when he includes his staff into his segments.
Fallon is terrible, though.
Source: Am American, haven't him funny ever, really, and my fiancée thinks he's the funniest guy ever.
Conan is my favourite. Would love to see him with the lads at Arsenal.
Try watching Gavin and Stacey, he's brilliant in that. His talkshow stuff is okay but it's not amazing
I think he's mostly famous because of those carpool karaoke vids. Each of them have tons of millions of views.
I quite like him, League of Their Own is hilarious.
The guy is a complete fucknugget.
He is English, bland and inoffensive. So he is now huge is the US
American here. I don't get it either. This guy got popular largely based on his "carpool karaoke" videos, which are also dumb. I wanted this segment to be cool but it's pretty lame.
I cant stand him, he isn't funny and his laugh is atrocious
He was good in A League of Their Own, can't say much about the rest of his stuff.
TIL people hate James Corden. Shame as he's a nice guy.
TIL people have some serious hate for James Corden, genuinely thought most people liked the guy
people on reddit mostly. His carpool karaoke is super popular so there's a lot of people that do like him.
I don't hate him, I just don't find him that funny. And since that's his job, it makes me disappointed in him.
I think this might be useful for me later at some point:Imgur
This guy is not funny at all.
Comment deleted by user
That's the point
I saw him in the Camden High st. McDonald's once. Was a bit gutted to see he only went to get some change. Really wanted to see him order a pile of cheeseburgers. Also, this was about as funny as a kick in the bollocks.
Wish I never watched that.
Yawn.
James Corden is the second most annoying unfunny cunt on the planet, after Russell Howard.
Couldn't even finish the video. James Corden is a talentless twat.
Mate, this is fucking shocking. The celebrations were hilarious though.
That was painfully unfunny
Another miss here from James. I think the best skit his done was for the [2010 Sports Person of the Year Awards Show] (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvvKUtHlDK8)
The key to happiness in life is low expectations: I thought this would stink and it ended up being pretty great!
And it ended up stinking some.
Well know we know Corden cut Jack out of the squad.

Not gonna lie, I may have giggled according to my coworker who heard me 2 doors down
I would lose it if i saw bellerin do the frying pan after a goal.
Corden gotta be a perfect idol cuz it shows even Chavs or Brits that are similar to him can make it Big in US. who would of thought americans would love chavs.
How is he a chav?
So this is the secret for Theo's form.
#KeepCuddlingThatBall
Corden and Conan are pretty much the only good talk show hosts today. Fallon is a fake.
I like Conan, but I just don't dig Corden at all.
I would add Trevor Noah and Colbert to that list. Jon Stewart was the greatest when he ran the daily show as well
Conan's remote is pure gold. Wish they do more of those office ones. Jon Stewart was pretty good as well. Not really care about the rest.
How did the players agree to do this?
Good opportunity to promote the club. They were probably obligated to do it, like the rest of promotional activities.
that feel when they wouldn't release this at this time if we lose to chavs.
It's a bit of banter and they're all in on it. I'd say they're delighted for a bit of free time.
