		England's friendly with Sweden at Old Trafford on Saturday week is very much the dustcart that follows the Lord Mayor's Show, as far as commentator Barry Davies is concerned.
		Since regular winter work dried up for the BBC's two soccer commentators with the loss of Premiership highlights to ITV, Motson has filled his diary commentating for Radio Five Live and presenting their Saturday morning football show.
		In contrast, Davies has been conspicuous by his absence from the national game and an impression has grown that Motson is the BBC's top soccer commentator, although this is denied within Auntie's circles.
