Phil Neville’s magnificent description of Seb Larsson’s sending off is punditry gold

Yeah, they might earn more in an afternoon than most of us do in a year, but football pundits don't half come in for some stick.

  Even though they've played the game professionally and are therefore more qualified than most of us to give their insight into the key events of a televised game, that's still not enough to stop some football supporters from pouncing on their every mistake. This weekend, that's something that Phil Neville, bless him, knows all too well.
