Micah Richards gave a priceless answer when he was asked who he prefers working with between pundits between BBC, Sky Sports and CBS Sports.

Richards, who called time on his playing career in 2019, is a pundit for BBC, Sky Sports and CBS Sports.

He's on Match of the Day, works live Premier League matches for Sky Sports and covers the Champions League action for CBS Sports.

On BBC, the former Manchester City star works alongside the likes of Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer and is joined by Roy Keane, Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher on Sky Sports.

And you can see him messing around with Thierry Henry and Kate Abdo on CBS Sports.

On the latest episode of The Rest is Football podcast, Lineker fielded questions from fans, with one asking Richards if there's a 'rivalry' between the different networks.

The 35-year-old played down the rivalry claim as he explained how they are all different to each other.

"BBC is a analytical programme... you see the highlights of all the games," he said.

"Sky is live games. So, I see them as two different things."

Richards added: "It's always hard because people always say to me what do you prefer BBC or Sky? I prefer them equally."

Asked who he prefers working with out of Roy Keane, Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher or Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer, Richards replied: "Roy Keane! Everyday of the week."

To which Lineker hilariously replied: "Well, f**k you!"

The Leicester City legend then joked he'd call Ian Wright to replace Richards on The Rest is Football podcast.

"I love yous all the same," Richards replied. Shearer weighed in: "The damage is done."

Richards continued: "You two know where my loyalties lie."

Richards and Keane share a bromance-like on-screen relationship, with the ex-defender even jumping to his defence when the Manchester United legend was confronted by a fan at the Emirates.
