Manchester United veteran Rio Ferdinand has praised David Moyes' man-management.
Ferdinand feels Moyes has also struck the right balance in his relationship with the players.
"The new manager is quick to join in the banter but when it's work time, it's work time," he said.
"The players at Manchester United aren't there to mess about on the training pitch, we're there to enjoy ourselves but to be drilled and to make sure we're all going in the same direction, and that's to be successful."
