I don't recall saying he was an expert.

Perhaps ITV can save money at the European Championships by not hiring former international players who have played in, or won, the Euros. I am sure ITV will do fine with in-depth analysis from, lets say, Jack Whitehall, Stephen Fry and Alan Carr. It is all about preference, and I would prefer to hear from someone who has played for Barca and also played in a world cup semi-final as opposed to some buffoon who has not played at a higher level than I have.

As much as I hate to say it, I find Jake Humphries better than Chiles. AFAIK, he has no real footballing experience either.
