    Kevin Keegan has \u201ca problem\u201d with female pundits covering the England men\u2019s football team.<\/p>\n

    The England legend, 72, is considered one of the best players of his era, winning consecutive Ballon d\u2019Ors in 1978 and 1979. He managed the national team between February 1999 and October 2000 after scoring 21 goals in 63 Three Lions appearances in the 1970s and 1980s.<\/p>\n

    Keegan has been away from TV screens in recent years but is currently embarking on a speaking tour. And he made a controversial return to the limelight by offering his opinion on the state of punditry, specifically when covering Gareth Southgate's side.<\/p>\n

    Speaking to an audience of approximately 250 people in Bristol, Keegan said: \u201cI\u2019m not as keen, I\u2019ve got to be honest, and it may not be a view shared. I don\u2019t like to listen to ladies talking about the England men\u2019s team at the match because I don\u2019t think it\u2019s the same experience. I have a problem with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Keegan went on to add that it wasn\u2019t a slight towards female pundits generally, praising women\u2019s football and singling out Gabby Logan as a top pundit.<\/p>\n

    He added: \u201cThe presenters we have now, some of the girls are so good, they are better than the guys. It\u2019s a great time for the ladies. But if I see an England lady footballer saying about England against Scotland at Wembley and she\u2019s saying, \u2018If I would have been in that position I would have done this,\u2019 I don\u2019t think it\u2019s quite the same. I don\u2019t think it crosses over that much.<\/p>\n

    \u201cThere are some very, very good lady presenters and I\u2019m working with one in two days\u2019 time, Terry Yorath\u2019s daughter, Gabby.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Jill Scott, Karen Carney and Alex Scott are among the former England women\u2019s internationals who regularly appear as pundits on men\u2019s matches. Scott worked as a pundit for Scotland vs England in September.<\/p>\n
