      “Such a breadth of knowledge of the game.”
      Scott took the Football Focus reigns from former long-time host Dan Walker, who presented it for 12 years.
      And after reports last week claimed the Beeb were looking to axe the show, Walker tweeted: “It’s hard to see Football Focus struggling.
      “I loved it growing up and it was an honour to present it and I still miss it.

      “We poured everything into that show each week and worked hard to keep it relevant. I hope it stays part of the TV landscape.”
      Scott responded to the tweet and the rumours – which the BBC denied – with a meme from kids TV Drake and Josh showing the character Megan sipping a drink.
      Her accompanying caption read: “Interesting.”
      Walker responded to the tweet by saying: “I’m not saying you haven’t Alex.
      “It’s a saturated market and it’s hard work every week. I hope you have a good show today.”
      Scott then took to Twitter (formerly Twitter) last Sunday to say: “Thank you to everyone who tuned into Football Focus your support for such an iconic show means so much to everyone who works across it.
      “Viewing figures double that of anything on TV at that time yesterday.
      “Have a bless Sunday and See you at the Emirates you Gunners.”

      But their rival Paul, 26, popped up as a surprise guest and a war of words broke out between the American and arch enemy KSI, 30.
      KSI was quick to mock the YouTuber-turned boxer’s first loss which came against Fury, 24, in February.
      He said: “I’ve beaten every opponent in front of me. Jake, have you beaten every opponent in front of you?”
      To which Paul replied: “Every single legend that has been put in front of me, yes I have.”

      KSI hit back: “I don’t give a f*** if it’s a legend or not, have you beat every opponent in front of you? No! You have an L.
      “Do I have an L on my record? And when I fight Tommy Fury will I have an L on my record? No, simple. You lost to Tommy Fury.”
      Paul then claimed KSI’s fight with Fury is an exhibition due to the fact it is not professionally sanctioned by the British Boxing Board of Control.
      Some more squabbles ensued over who is ducking who before Paul was abruptly kicked off the stream.

      He later went on Twitter to claim it was KSI’s manager who demanded he be removed.
      Paul tweeted: “Lol KSI manager freaking out behind the scenes and making Adin’s manager kick me out of the chat! Soft!”
      The self-proclaimed Problem Child also deleted a tweet which suggested KSI’s bout with Fury is not a “real fight”.
      But in response to KSI pointing this out, he replied: “So show all your fans what regulated US sports book is taking bets on your fight in the US?
      “Betr isn’t…but neither are Fan Duel, Draft Kings, Bet MGM or any LEGAL sports book…because your fight isn’t a pro fight. It’s an exhibition.
