Steven Gerrard and Jose Mourinho will be working side-by-side next season

They will probably be a bit more cordial than in this photo.

BT have announced their Champions League coverage ahead of next season and it could make for some pretty entertaining viewing. Gary Lineker will host the coverage while Steven Gerrard, Jose Mourinho and Rio Ferdinand will be regular pundits.

There was a bit of a love-in between Jose and Stevie G towards the end of the season and it will be interesting to see how that translates onto the screen. Gerrard will be in his off-season at the end of his inaugural MLS campaign while presumably Mourinho will be doing his punditry shifts on his Champions League off-nights (though BT are so ‘innovative’ that they might even mic Jose up in the dugout).

Does BT’s slate of pundits excite you ahead of next season or you are going to stick with the tried-and-tested trio on RTÉ?
