BOBBY UPSET ABOUT RIO BAN

Last updated : 23 December 2003 By Editor
Sir Bobby Charlton told MUTV:

“He will play for a while and then we will see how long
before he can come again. It is a great tragedy that a young
player can have a big chunk of his career taken away.”

Charlton was impressed with Ferdinand’s performance on
Sunday:

“I thought it was faultless when you think he is a young lad
who has had all this heat and responsibility heaped on him.
I thought he was terrific - he never put a foot wrong, he
was solid as a rock.”
