Rio Ferdinand Blames Onana and Dorgu for Manchester United’s Defeat
Rio Ferdinand has criticized Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana for his costly mistake in their match against Ipswich Town on Wednesday.
The former United defender also held January signing Patrick Dorgu partly responsible for Ipswich’s opening goal at Old Trafford.
As Ipswich pushed forward, Dorgu, under pressure from Jaden Philogene, appeared to have the situation under control. However, Onana rushed off his line, and Dorgu’s back pass slipped past him, allowing Philogene to score.
Speaking on TNT Sports, Ferdinand pointed out the lack of awareness between the two players.
“A terrible start. Dorgu never once looked up to see where Onana was. Onana didn’t need to come out,” Ferdinand said. “The full-back had control and could have held his ground, but the communication just wasn’t there.”
Onana was also at fault for Ipswich’s second goal, failing to track a cross before Philogene netted his second of the night.
Since joining United from Inter Milan, Onana has been criticized for several similar errors, this has raised concerns about his decision-making.
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
Former Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf speaks on recent league matches and names two clubs that can really challenge Arsenal this season, Manchester City and Chelsea.
During a recent interview when speaking about Arsenal, he shared “They are still the big favourites [for the title], but they will have to prove it. They lost four points against Sunderland and Chelsea. Manchester City are back, Chelsea are still there.”
“We will have the winter period, which will start very soon, so let’s see,” he said.
