sport news Alan Shearer stuns Micah Richards with his top 10 best pundits list trends now
Alan Shearer hilariously left Micah Richards stunned as he named his top 10 best football pundits.
The two former Premier League stars were tasked with ranking a handful of the best analysts – past and present – on the Match of the Day podcast by Gary Lineker, while both of their lists had to include themselves.
Sportsmail columnist Richards was asked to name his 10th pick all the way down to his sixth, with the late Jimmy Hill his first selection.
As Richards reeled off his next few picks, Shearer's name was nowhere to be seen meaning he rated the Newcastle legend highly as a pundit.
Hilarity then ensued when it came to Shearer's turn to name the bottom half of his top 10.

'I'm feeling guilty now,' Shearer admitted after finding out he was in Richards' top five best football pundits.
As Lineker pressed Shearer for his 10th pick, the Premier League's all-time record goalscorer bluntly said: 'Micah, ten.'
A stunned Richards was sent into a fit of laughter, before Lineker jokingly added: 'I wouldn't have put you ten, I wouldn't have done that to you – I wouldn't have had you in the list.'
The mood changed when Shearer was asked to reveal his picks for the ninth and eighth positions on his list, with Richards' Sky Sports colleagues Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher taking the next two spots below him.
Richards, still reeling from being placed bottom of Shearer's list, added: 'This is personal now.'
Shearer's decision to put fan favourite Carragher eighth left Richards with his hands on his head before he blurted out a swear word in disbelief.
Richards then jokingly accused Shearer of bias, saying his top five are all BBC pundits, before Lineker reminded him that he is, in fact, bottom of the list.
Richards placed both Keane and Carragher in his top three, with the Liverpool legend taking top spot for his punditry on Sky Sports.
They pair both agreed that Gary Neville deserved to be in the top three, with Shearer placing him third while he took second best pundit on Richards' list.
