Punditry is a key component of the modern football experience.

With so many matches on television, there are plenty of opportunities for former players to become one of the best football pundits.

Each channel has their own core group of pundits; the usual suspects tend to appear on Sky Sports, BT Sport and the BBC – no matter what the occasion.

Some of the best players go on to enjoy prolific careers in punditry. Others fall short in their bid to make it as a top football pundit.

You don’t need to be a world class footballer to shine as a pundit. A deep understanding of the sport is essential but reading the game is more important than talent.
