Tbf, I do see some men on the Internet have a fit because women play Football.

I'm not sure if it's as extreme as Aluko's making it out to be, but it isn't a really small number of people either.

And to nitpick for a second, but isn't sexism and misogyny the same thing essentially?

The only complaint I see .. and very regularly is all the largely unknown female pundits hired to impart their ( dubious) expertise/ experience on the men’s games … at the same time pushing well known / liked/ respected male pundits out of the back door ..


Crazy thing is the very same women also appear on the women’s games AS WELL where there are no men to be seen ..

Tbh I can understand that complaint because it is unfair to the male Pundits, because it's okay for women to provide commentary on men's Football, but it's not okay for men to provide commentary on women's Football, that's hypocrisy and these Channels need to do better.

However I have seen just on TalkSport's comment section on YouTube alone, people mocking women's Football even being a thing, obviously it's not everyone that comments on there (because for example I don't say that stuff) but I have seen a fair few on there behave in a hostile way towards women's Football, and imo there's no need for some of it.

I get it if you're just not keen on the Sport, but some people take their dislike of women's Football to an extreme.

Tbh the same can be said for some of the people that don't like men's Football as well.

I have nothing against women’s football .. I have watched a few games ( international ones mainly) and it just doesn’t hold any interest to me

That's all fair enough.

I'm talking mainly about the people that I've seen on YouTube and Twitter, who really have their issues with women's Football even existing.

I can agree with you to a point.

The only thing that I will say, is how are any of these women suppose to prove that they're there on merit if they're never given a chance? It's all about balancing this sort of stuff out, something that Football hasn't quite fully worked out yet.

There's a lot women have responded to this saying they never feel unsafe at football.

She probably means social media.

Yes and given some of the nonsense she comes out with it’s clearly made her an easy target

Soooooo I know loads of ManU fans are having trouble sleeping because Southgate is supposedly the favourite to be their next manager…. but I’ve heard a whisper that Zidane fancies the challenge and has been batting away lucrative offers from other clubs because he’s confident of his chances

Zidane has poor form in the domestic League.

Man Utd will want to turn up for a title race within the next five years.

With one of the best performing teams over the last decade.

He has never been tested with such a unique squad, like this current Man Utd one.

Zidane won't come to united. He doesn't fit the new roll that the new owners want a manager to fulfil. United haven't contacted any replacements, so at the moment it's Ten Hag

The issue isn't the manager, it's the players

Presumably he’s in talks ( maybe tentative ) with them to come to a compromise ?

If he’s brushing away lucrative offers there must be something going on behind the scenes
