Rio Ferdinand has picked Manchester City to hold the Premier League title this season in his latest forecast.
The legendary Manchester United player had at first tipped Chelsea to win the EPL title yet has since changed his mind.
Rio Ferdinand’s difference at the top of the priority list came after Manchester City staged a sensational rebound twice to hold Liverpool at Anfield last weekend.
Manchester City were in no doubt the predominant side during the heated game yet needed to energize from behind to secure a vital point away from home.
Talking on his FIVE YouTube channel, the ex England global recommended nobody has the ability to prevent Manchester City from retaining the crown.
This is what he had to say;
”In the first 4 of 4 games of the season, I was sitting there and thinking Chelsea are the team to beat. 3 or 4 games later and I’m thinking Man City are the team to beat. They have looked seriously impressive against the big teams.”
In other news, ex Liverpool star, Didi Hamann has officially disclosed that he anticipates Manchester United would sack Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as coach ‘soon.’
Ole has wound up on the less than desirable end lately after Manchester United recorded various unconvincing outcomes across some competitions.
Manchester United are winless in 3 Premier League games, experiencing a shock home loss to Aston Villa before their awful 1-1 draw against Everton during last weekend.
Surprisingly, in spite of the United’s blended outcomes, they are still 4th on the EPL table.
In any case, Liverpool saint Didi has depicted United’s new exhibitions as terrible, demanding he doesn’t see Solskjaer staying that long at the club.
This is what he had to say in an interview with SkySport;
”Now I believe the pressure on the manager will grow a lot. I believe it is a matter of when, bot if, they sack him because he has been there too long for you not to see any progression.
They still play the same football which is not good to watch. That is not Manchester United.
I think there will be a change of manager soon. Whether the new manager will be able to utilise their potential, we will have to see.”
