Rio Ferdinand Criticizes Zirkzee for Passing Late Chance Against Liverpool
Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has criticized the club’s summer signing Joshua Zirkzee for his decision to pass the ball to Harry Maguire in the final moments of their dramatic 2-2 draw against Liverpool on Sunday.
Ferdinand believes Zirkzee should have taken matters into his own hands and attempted to score the game-winning goal himself, rather than looking for a pass to Maguire.
Speaking on the “Rio Ferdinand Presents” podcast, Ferdinand didn’t hold back in expressing his frustration.
He said, “After all of that, I would have gone into the changing room and said, ‘What kind of pass was that? We could’ve won the game.’”
He added, “Zirkzee is clearly lacking in confidence, but you have to make the right decision in those moments.
It’s all about the details, and you have to communicate with your teammates the way you want to be communicated with.”
Manchester United have released a list of players who are expected to leave the club during the summer transfer window.
A statement from the club listed the players as Jadon Sancho, Casemiro, Tyrell Malacia, Sonny Aljofree, James Bailey, and Malachi Sharpe.
It was noted that Casemiro enjoyed a strong season at the club and built an excellent reputation during his time with the team.
Meanwhile, Tyrell Malacia made 50 first-team appearances for Manchester United during his spell at the club.
Liverpool have released a list of players who are confirmed to leave the club this summer.
The list includes star players Mohamed Salah, Andy Robertson, and Ibrahima Konaté. While some players are leaving, others have been offered new contracts.
The players who have been offered fresh terms include Kyle Kelly, Afolami Onanuga, Oliver O’Connor, Lucas Pitt, Ben Trueman, Matthew Wright, Prince Cisse, and Keyrol Figueroa.
Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen has urged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Galatasaray.
It can be noted that Lookman recently completed a transfer to Atlético Madrid, and since then, many European clubs have shown interest in the player.
Osimhen then shared an encouraging message to the player, stating that he would be welcome at Galatasaray.
“We are waiting for you at Galatasaray. Come and be a part of this family.”
