The New Piece Of Technology That Will Change Football Punditry Forever

The BBC launched their very own midweek programme for the new Premier League season yesterday as Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and a 3D Jermaine Jenas featured in the new show hosted by Gabby Logan.

That's right. A hologram image of Jermaine Jenas appeared on screens around the country last night as he was seen walking around the pitch, analysing players' movement, positioning and attacking threat.

Jenas examined the Crystal Palace vs Tottenham game as Victor Wanyama scored the winner. The former Spurs midfielder then gave his views on the Leicester penalty area to point out what went wrong from the opening day fixture against newly-promoted Hull.

Jermain Jenas looks like he could be about to make a run at the far post for West Brom v Everton

Who'd have thought it. Jermaine Jenas on the pitch in a pair of jeans and a trendy sweater.

Honestly though, we think the idea is a perfect tool for pundits. Imagine this - Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher going in on defenders because they can't mark for shit. We'd pay to see that.

What do you think of the new graphic starring Jermaine Jenas?

Let us know.
