Ferdinand Criticizes Man U Performance After Crystal Palace Defeat
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has criticized his former club following their disappointing 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace at Old Trafford on Sunday.
Ferdinand, speaking on his show Rio Ferdinand Presents, expressed his frustration with the current state of the team under manager Ruben Amorim.
He pointed out that teams are now visiting Old Trafford without fear or respect, which is a stark contrast to the dominance United once had at home.
The defeat came courtesy of two goals from Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta, which sealed all three points for the visitors. Ferdinand described the situation as a “sad state of affairs” and admitted it was a “morbid weekend” for the club.
He went on to state the team’s lack of fluidity, saying that they are struggling to play effective football with the ball at their feet.
Ferdinand also mentioned the absence of clear patterns or structure in the team’s play, something that was more evident under previous managers.
On the defensive side, Ferdinand was particularly critical, stating that United’s defense seems unable to read danger, especially when they are pushed high up the pitch. In his eyes, the overall performance is far from good enough in all aspects.
Former footballer Paul Scholes condemns Martin Odegaard and speaks on his performance in the Arsenal team.
The football legend shared how it is the captain that is bringing the team down, as he is not playing his position properly “That game on Saturday [Arsenal vs Newcastle], I didn’t see all of it, I probably saw the first half an hour, but I think Odegaard is a big problem for them.”
“I love Odegaard, I think he’s brilliant. Technically, he’s great, but he doesn’t play his position properly. Half the time I saw him in the first 20 minutes, he was almost the deepest man.”
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
The player appealed in court on February 25 but has now been handed his punishment, which is a four-year ban from football.
It can be recalled that his last appearance on the field was on November 28, 2024.
