More quotes by Rio Ferdinand
I'm sure the mantelpiece of captaincy will suit Wayne.
Rio Ferdinand
I set myself high standards on the pitch and know I have not always lived up to them this season.
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
It hit me like a thunderbolt!
Rio Ferdinand
It's great to see young players like Kieran coming out and not being intimidated by it. (on Kieran Richardson)
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
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
Who were the best players I had ever played against? Raul, Messi, Zidane.
Rio Ferdinand
Do you know who I am? Why, have you forgotten?

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.
Rio Ferdinand

Rio Ferdinand
It doesn't matter whether you're a senior or not, if something needs saying to a colleague it will be said.
Rio Ferdinand
So if u shorten words to get what u want in within 140 characters it makes u a twit?
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
At times, European football can be very slow but it speeds up in the final third.
Rio Ferdinand
For me, the biggest idiot will always be John Terry.
Rio Ferdinand
It was wicked meeting Nelson Mandela.
Rio Ferdinand
Four years ago maybe we thought we were inferior to Brazil, subconsciously we didn't see ourselves beating them. Now we believe in ourselves, we can be on the pitch with any team in the world and think we can win.
Rio Ferdinand
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
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.
