    Rio Ferdinand is such a pro. He gets the most amazing footballing guests and then delivers SUPERB interviews. It’s clear that the guests respect Rio and trust him enough to relax and be candid. Rio strikes a wonderful balance between giving the guests the primary speaking role, and inserting his own experiences. Just exceptional listening.

Rio’s Rating? 8/10 | Declan Rice is SECOND most influential player in Premier League

They need to effectively beat the bigger teams more often.
Rio’s Rating? 6.5/10 | Comparing Kobbie Mainoo to Gerard Pique + is De Ligt most underrated?
Q: What should United fans judge progress more on? Performances, results or identity?
All of it, all of them.
Have Manchester United solved their ‘graveyard position’? | Mason Mount has thrown spanner in the works
Q: Rio, who is the better midfielder at the moment between Declan Rice and Moises Caicedo?
Rio believes there are a lot of similarities in their game, stating that if you let Declan off his leash, he'll probably give you more going forward, but Caicedo is quick to smell danger and defensively more reliable.

Q: So you would not say the system is wrong?
I'm not saying the system's wrong. I'm saying we need flexibility with our tactics and formation to get the most out of our players.

Q: How would you like the team to be set up then?
