“I think Roy Keane has got a bit of previous with the family so I can’t take too much of what he said,” Ferdinand joked on TNT Sports. “I don’t agree fully – division two is a bit far-fetched. He wouldn’t be as good as someone like Harry Kane,” Ferdinand added.“His all-round game is nowhere near as good as Harry Kane. But this guy wasn’t brought in here to link play – he was brought in to finish off the chances created by the playmakers. That’s his game.
“Whatever you’ve seen of him as a kid or at Dortmund, it’s always been about running through and scoring goals. That is him and I don’t think that changes.”According to reports, head coach Xavi is ‘nearing a spectacular U-turn’ as FC Barcelona ramp up their efforts to keep their club legend.Rio Ferdinand singled out Bruno Fernandes and Harry Maguire for criticism for their role in Chelsea’s winning goal against Manchester United.
