Although it does look like the keeper comes off the line early every time (but isn't that always the case?).

Yeah, the keepers tend to come off their lines before the ball is kicked, but when the goal is scored it doesn't matter. I remember they enforced that law in one of the shootouts at the women's World Cup and they retook 3 or 4 of them.

It's mostly up to how dickish the referee is feeling that day. Most of the time they won't call it.

Shouldn't the keeper be carded after the second offence? Unsporting behaviour and such?

The referee would have to be feeling extremely dickish to do that, and only if he felt the keeper was deliberately doing it to screw with the game. I can't imagine handing out a caution for that.

I don't know if Sky Sports invented the concept, but they did Player Cam as one of the interactive options years ago - they stuck with one player for 15 minutes then moved on to another. It could sometimes be sporadically interesting if it happened to be, say, a central midfielder who otherwise doesn't get much screen time but still does a lot of work, but 90% of the time an individual player is jogging up and down the pitch and spitting, and it was quietly dropped a few years ago. Also it became a running joke that whoever was on Player Cam inevitably had the worst 15 minutes of their career.

Yeah but its Emile heskey all they are going to see is him walking around , standing still and jumping (missing the ball) and flailing.

I don't doubt it, but I remember hearing that Sky did SvenCam for Eriksson's first game in charge of England. Not sure if it's true, but I really hope so.

They normally have one camera trained on the dugout at all times for the inevitable managerial reaction shots, which irritate me strangely. What is being illuminated by us knowing that Jose Mourinho is happy that his team have scored? I don't mind them in other circumstances but they seem to cut to the manager reacting every single time a goal is scored now and it's really loving annoying.

Sports on TV are shown with an attempt for telling the story as it unfolds. Crowd shots, dugout shots, manager shots etc are all part of delivering the narrative of the game with the full cast of characters. The more famous the manager/player the more you'll see their reactions to events. It's pretty standard fare these days. I think I'd notice it missing if they stopped, weirdly enough.

That's a really strange thing to be bothered by.. The manager is as much a 'character' as the players, and we see their celebrations all the time.

You would have to be a pretty odd fellow not to like watching some guy ruin a two thousand Euro suit by sliding along the pitch.

I like watching the managers get all mad when one of their players receives a foul or doesn't have a foul called in favor of them.

Yeah we might as well just cut to a close up of the ball or something instead of the inevitable players celebrating, what is being illuminated by us knowing that rooney is happy he has scored?

A camera attached to a player would be pretty interesting. Couldn't be a pov or anything but attach it to the front of their shirt or something.
