Rio Ferdinand: United needs a Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo and Isco


Former Manchester United defender, Rio Ferdinand, says the club will need a “superstar” in the Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo mould if they are to win the Champions League.

Jose Mourinho’s side remains unbeaten in the Premier League, sitting joint-top of the table and have collected maximum points from two group stage fixtures in Europe.

Speaking after United’s 4-1 win against CSKA Moscow on Wednesday, Ferdinand told BT Sport: “Power and speed have been brought into this Manchester United team but you need more than that to win the Champions League – you need a superstar in your team to be the go-to guy when things are tight.

“If you look at the Real Madrid team that has won it in recent seasons they’ve had a Cristiano Ronaldo and lately Isco, or Barcelona had Lionel Messi and Neymar.

“You need a star player and Man United have got players that could become that, but we need to find out who that will be and if they can reach that level.

“Winning the trophies Man United did last season is a good experience for this squad and with the age of the players there’s plenty of potentials there, but there are still steps to go.”
