Rio Ferdinand

[Altobelli]

Just watched this cart horse in the QPR team on MOTD.

Never rated him in the whole of his career, I remember Alan Hanson one year tearing Ferdinand a new @rshole one week on MOTD then a couple of weeks later praising him to high heaven.

Today he was more than 2 seconds behind the game be it in positioning or in the mind and he had the turning circle of the QE2 !

It confirms in concrete to me how poor Harry Redknapp really is, how the hell do folk think he's a good Manager is beyond me, he plays Armand Traore who wouldn't get in my 2nd team let alone the first.

He was a great player in his prime Mike, best defender in the premier league for many years and there cant be any argument about that, but age has caught up with him! QPR are paying him massive wages and taking a big chance on him, its a gamble i don't think will work. He should have retired when released by United and kept his reputation intact, he doesn't need the money so why he has gone there where success will be escaping the drop is a mystery to me :? :? :?
