I have zero issues with female pundits, there’s some poor male pundits too, I am
Surprised she keeps getting gigs at the tournaments.
Fair play to her for getting the jobs but I don’t think she offers anything really in terms of how she views the game. |  | | |  |

Definitely a box ticker, she’s horrendous, talks absolute sh!te and she’s never confident in her delivery. |  |

Agree, don’t see why you can’t just have to best pundits and commentators for the job. |  | | |

It is such a shame. It would just be fantastic to have more female pundits, referees and coaches in the men's game. I really do think it would shake complacency away and drive standards. But sadly, I couldn't agree more about Aluko. It's a real shame because she would seem to be much more intelligent than your average footballer on paper, but she's yet to show it at all as a pundit imho.
Cricket has some wonderful female pundits in a game which excluded women from the establishment for far too long. I really hope that the same happens for football, because at the moment you can see why the TV channels are anxious to appoint a good number of them, but I'm not sure many of them are great.
Barton of course is a complete kn*b. There is no reason why a woman should not talk with intelligence and insight on the men's game, obviously. Top female players in tennis have often accepted that men's and women's tennis are very different sports, and in different ways the same is true of football. But plainly Navratilova speaks with insight that the vast majority of men's players could only dream of.
Maybe the best route will be to have female coaches be pundits for a while - something has to put them in the shop window in order for professional men's sides to give them a go... |  | | |

Probably because for years women haven’t had a look in, however good they are. It’s still a deeply chauvinistic sport. It’s changing slowly, but very slowly. And it’s not only gender we’ve still hung up over. In the women’s game you’ve got lesbians all over the place, but homosexuality is still largely taboo in the man’s game. The game doesn’t reflect society. |  |

I'll happily listen to Natalie Sawyer, Faye Carruthers, Shebahn Ahern, on Talksport for hours but any time she pops up there she spouts absolute shyte and don't think I've heard her on there since Simon Jordan took one of her hot takes and subsequent flimsy argument apart. She used to write articles for the Guardian and they had to turn the comments off her articles by the end because they would get ripped apart. |  |

To be a TV presenter I would think you would have some command of the English language. |  |

haha i'm glad someone else gets this.
I don't have anything against Alex Scott, but for the BBC to have one of their lead presenters as someone who has no basic grasp of the English language is fairly telling into the state of the BBC currently. |  |

Have to agree. Really poor and not on her brief.
Shame not to see Emma Hayes or even Sarina Wiegman in the euros coverage though. The former was very good during the World Cup. |  |

I'd rather an ugly, fat b@st@rd who at least has enough respect to get someone's name right |  | | |

There's an obvious reason why there are a lot of lesbians in the women's game though.
Football is not supposed to reflect society in any way. How many fat balding men in their late 40s do you see playing these days? | | | |
