Man Utd legend Ferdinand wades in on Van Dijk vs Vidic debate; calls out Carragher over Torres ‘myth’Man Utd legend Rio Ferdinand thinks it’s a “myth” that former Liverpool striker Fernando Torres “tortured” Nemanja Vidic.
But Ferdinand does not like the suggestion Vidic always struggled when he came up against Torres with the former Man Utd defender using Marcus Rashford up against Van Dijk as a comparison. “Him, Trent [Alexander-Arnold] they’ve just got to get back to basics. The way you get out of a rut like that is to just get back to basics.
“He mentioned [Fernando] Torres – I think Torres scored three goals in 15 games against Vidic. I think it’s a bit of a myth. I think he had a couple of dodgy moments in those games, and he got sent off a couple of times, but that’s kind of been amplified into saying he got tortured every time we played against Torres, which wasn’t the case.
