More quotes by Rio Ferdinand
Gary Neville is the club captain but has been injured for the best part of a year now - and Giggsy's taken on the mantlepiece.
Rio Ferdinand
At times, European football can be very slow but it speeds up in the final third.
Rio Ferdinand
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.
Rio Ferdinand
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
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.
Rio Ferdinand
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
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.
Rio Ferdinand
He has always been a slippery little git! (on Joe Cole)
Rio Ferdinand
No matter how much money you have or what kind of cocoon you live in, the reality is that you have lost a game of football and let England's fans down. We are bothered.
Rio Ferdinand
Who were the best players I had ever played against? Raul, Messi, Zidane.
Rio Ferdinand
It's great to see young players like Kieran coming out and not being intimidated by it. (on Kieran Richardson)
Rio Ferdinand
I set myself high standards on the pitch and know I have not always lived up to them this season.
Rio Ferdinand
You get a bad result one week and it's a natural reaction to go out in the next game and put it behind you and do well.
Rio Ferdinand
I feel the longer he stays at United the better it is for the club. He's done so much for United you can't imagine him not being here. (on Sir Alex Ferguson)
Rio Ferdinand
Football is the most important thing in my life, but I do have a life outside football and this is one part. The TV, the music, the fashion - it all goes to make up Rio Ferdinand.
Rio Ferdinand
You are always flattered when big clubs are interested in you.
Rio Ferdinand
It hit me like a thunderbolt!
Rio Ferdinand
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
Most professional players are their own biggest critics. Some of the things you read in the papers that strike you as bang out of order will already have been thought by the players themselves
Rio Ferdinand
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.
