Rio Ferdinand has revealed that he and his Manchester United teammates often chat about transfer happenings around England.
The veteran centre-half says it is normal for players to discuss any signings from any clubs and decide whether or not it will be a good move or a waste of cash.
"We come in and look at the papers or social media or whatever and say 'so and so has bought so and so, what do you think, is he any good? I don't think he'll be any good, he'll be a great big waste of money'," he told BBC Sport.
"We're just exactly the same, it's just like four fellas sitting in a pub. We're just sitting in a training ground doing it (instead). People don't expect it because we're players."
