Description
Rio Ferdinand, freshly linked with Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid, has risked the displeasure of Manchester United fans by confessing to a previously undocumented respect for Liverpool’s past stars. Ferdinand told his club’s official TV channel, MUTV: “As a kid, Liverpool were the team that were doing well, with the likes of John Barnes and John Aldridge, and United weren’t really winning anything. “On my estate [in Peckham, south London], all my mates were Liverpool fans.”
