COACHING Alex Scott is a “pleasure” for Andoni Iraola, as the boss praised the midfielder’s consistency throughout the season.
Scott was again impressive on Saturday as the Cherries defeated Newcastle, and he has been on top form all term.
That earned him an England call up last year, but he was left out of the March squad, and he’ll be hoping his form will earn him a spot on the plane to the summer’s tournament.
“He's playing so well,” Iraola said on Scott’s form.

“And he's adding this to his game, and I'm really happy for him. He has been really all the season so consistent, and it's a pleasure for me to have him.”
