Who were the best players I had ever played against? Raul, Messi, Zidane.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
In some ways, I was a little bit surprised [by how dominant we were] but then I look at the players in our changing room and it doesn't surprise me because we've got quality in there. If we click and play well like we did in the first half, we can open up any team.

Image
I'm sure the mantelpiece of captaincy will suit Wayne.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
There is a hangover from a defeat like Denmark - ask any player about when they've had a bad game, it's still in there somewhere in the back of your mind.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
It's great to see young players like Kieran coming out and not being intimidated by it. (on Kieran Richardson)
Rio Ferdinand
Image
If any player has a bad game its there in the back of your mind in the next game. Theres always a hangover. It is like a wounded animal in a way, as you want to get out there as quick as possible and rectify it.

Image
His temperament is always there to be questioned because he plays on the edge. That is just the way he plays. It is a cliche but if you took that edge away from Wayne he wouldn't be the same player and I would rather have the Wayne Rooney we have now.

I've heard people say it looks as if I don't care and I've certainly read that, but the way I play is natural. I don't think I can change it. I know I'm working as hard as the next man, even if it doesn't always look that way.

Image
If you come out with racist comments, then I believe you shouldn't be allowed to come to a football match. Don't be so narrow minded, you're bigger than that.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
You want to come home from a tournament with a winner's medal. That's not the fans or the media putting us under pressure, that's the pressure we put ourselves under.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
Do you know who I am? Why, have you forgotten?
Rio Ferdinand
Image
You are always flattered when big clubs are interested in you.

Image
For too long now, European football authorities have not taken the problem of racism in the game seriously and refuse to acknowledge how widespread the problem is.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
He has always been a slippery little git! (on Joe Cole)
Rio Ferdinand
Image
It was wicked meeting Nelson Mandela.

Image
If we had a starting XI that no one could argue about it wouldn't say a lot for English football. We'd probably be on a downward spiral. It's good that people have different ideas about who should play.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
I set myself high standards on the pitch and know I have not always lived up to them this season.
Rio Ferdinand
Image
Best player? For me, it's Paul Scholes. He'll do ridiculous things in training like say, “You see that tree over there?” - it'll be 40 yards away - “I'm going to hit it”. And he'll do it. Everyone at the club considers him the best.

I used to read every, well, most nights. I think reading helps me in terms of relaxing... It helps me to get my mind off the game a little bit more and it helps me to be a little bit more focused.

For me, the biggest idiot will always be John Terry.
