You canât beat a bit of banter between pundits.
Sky Sports often lead the way in this department with the likes of Jamie Carragher, Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Micah Richards on their team, but BT Sportâs pundits are also capable of making everyone giggle from time to time as Ferdinand showed on this occasion.
