Rio Ferdinand has expressed his concern over Marcus Rashford’s form and believes the Manchester United forward needs to “go back to basics” to rediscover his best form.
Rashford has struggled for consistency in recent seasons and has been in and out of the United team. He has scored just five goals in all competitions this season, and his place in the England squad for the upcoming World Cup is in doubt.
Ferdinand, who won six Premier League titles and a Champions League with United, believes Rashford needs to work hard to get back to his best.
“He’s a talent, there’s no doubt about that,” Ferdinand told the FIVE YouTube channel. “But he’s just not at it at the moment. He needs to go back to basics and work on his game.
“He needs to get his confidence back and start scoring goals again. He’s got all the ability in the world, but he just needs to find that form again.”
Ferdinand also spoke about the importance of the rivalry between United and Liverpool, and how it was always a special game to play in.
“It was always a massive game,” he said. “The atmosphere was always electric, and you knew you were in for a tough game.
“There was always a bit of needle between the two teams, and that’s what made the rivalry so special.
“It’s a game that I always looked forward to, and I’m sure it’s the same for the fans.”
