This takedown of Phil Neville’s World Cup punditry is pitch perfect
There have been plenty of plaudits for the BBC’s World Cup pundit Alex Scott, the former Arsenal and England defender who has smashed prehistoric misconceptions about women football analysts.
Alex Scott using facts and evidence to present an argument during the half-time punditry. It’ll never catch on.

Alex Scott’s the best pundit on the BBC already. Actually shows enthusiasm when speaking.

Alex Scott stands out like a sore thumb, analysing the game instead of joining in with the jolly boys banter club.

Phil Neville is also part of the BBC’s World Cup team and if you want to know how he’s doing, we really couldn’t put it any better than this clip of him (and, yes, Alex Scott).
Stick with it, because it’s worth it.

Back of the net! And it turns out he’s got a bit of a track record …
Incredible footage has emerged suggesting that Phil Neville isn’t sexist, this is just how he is. pic.twitter.com/WfV6MNoOiO
