Forest Draw Needs More Credit! | Focus O...

Rio Ferdinand Presents
About this episode

After Manchester United’s winning run comes to an end, Rio, Joel and Ste discuss all of the positives from the 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest including Amad Diallo’s attitude whilst playing in defence, Casemiro’s ability on the ball and how the front three are giving the defence a solid platform to build on.


Rio acknowledges how important Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s interview about Amorim being judged only after “three years” could be in terms of facilitating the improved form and performances and why the left-side of the defence should be the manager’s next priority to improve.


With Harry Kane, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe all in incredible form, Joel asks Rio to pick his favourite and Ste chooses who he would like to see most in an Man Utd shirt.


There have been several suggestions that Viktor Gyokeres is only a “flat track bully” (because of his lack of goals vs “big” teams) but Rio analyses his performances and details why his ability and traits mean Arsenal have added another effective way of attacking opposition defences.


After Virgil Van Dijk responded to what he described as “absolutely ridiculous takes” Rio admits he loves hearing a captain speak out on behalf of his team mates and also gives Trent Alexander-Arnold some advice about facing his former club as Liverpool welcome Real Madrid to Anfield in the Champions League.


Plus, Liverpool fans take note - we reveal who the next guest is going to be on Rio Meets and it’s not one to be missed!
