Rio Ferdinand claims he was king of the dressing room game during his time at Old Trafford

Rio Ferdinand claims he beat Paul Scholes and Cristiano Ronaldo to be crowned the ‘best two-touch player’ in the Manchester United dressing room.
The former defender, who won six Premier League titles and the Champions League during his time at Old Trafford, insists he could beat any United star at a game of two-touch.

And he even claims that he had to put Adnan Januzaj in his place when the Belgian emerged as a challenger.

“I was named, officially, the best two-touch player, you know like you do keepy-ups,” Ferdinand told Squawka.

“Me and Scholesy, and me and Cristiano [Ronaldo] used to do it religiously before matches in the changing room.

“I used to beat all of them. Scholesy obviously knows that and he wouldn’t tell you otherwise. Me and Cristiano, there used to be those bikes, 10 bikes lined up in a row, and he used to go one side and we’d play two-three touch over them. It used to be blinding.

“Adnan Januzaj tried to come in when all those guys retired or had left but he got told to sit down and go back and do a youth training scheme before he coming back into the arena.”
