Ferdinand: I worry about the UEFA Cup final against Premier League teams, Tottenham has beaten us three times

May 20th According to the British media METRO, Ferdinand talked about the UEFA Cup finals between Manchester United and Tottenham in an interview. Ferdinand expressed serious doubts about Manchester United's defeat of Tottenham in the UEFA Cup final, and he believes that his old club is not as physically as other Premier League teams.

This compelling showdown in Bilbao at 03:00 am on May 22 will determine which team will win the trophy and qualify for the Champions League next season. This will be a huge reward for the two teams who have performed poorly in the Premier League this season, with Manchester United currently ranked 16th and Tottenham following behind. Ferdinand believes that a big problem for Manchester United this season is their lack of physical fitness and will face this problem again when facing Premier League opponents.

Speaking of this, Ferdinand said: "From a Manchester United perspective, the most worrying thing is that we cannot keep up with any Premier League team in terms of physical fitness. If they fight us one-on-one, we will be at a disadvantage because our players are not as fast, endurance and strength as other teams. This is a big problem in the Premier League. But in the Europa League, we are able to overwhelm all opponents. Only when we face the Glasgow Rangers, we feel a little bit hard because they are more like a Premier League team."

So, Ferdinand is worried against another Premier League team in the final, especially considering that Tottenham has beaten United three times.

In response, Ferdinand said: "I must be honest, I cannot predict the outcome of Manchester United's game. Their performance in the Premier League is very unstable, or has been terrible. But the Tottenham they are going to face is also poor. However, Tottenham has some players who can decide the game, which makes the game unpredictable."

Ferdinand even said that if Tottenham wins in Spain, only the "madman" will be surprised, because Tottenham has beaten Manchester United three times this season.

In response to this, Ferdinand said: "I don't think the fans would be too surprised. They have beaten us three times, so the fourth time is not surprising, and I think only the stupid ones will say, 'Oh my god, I can't believe it.' We lost 18 games in the Premier League and ranked 16th. If anyone is surprised that we can't win this game, they're crazy in my opinion."
