Got injured on purpose I heard... Just the type of player that will cause United problems if he''s fully fit and never stops running. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,411 Posted August 21, 2011 Holt Vidic will be an interesting battle - if Vidic is fit of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary23 0 Posted August 22, 2011 I have to be honest in that I didn''t realise Rio was such a student of the game. A few years back he wouldn''t have admitted to even knowing where Norwich was! I guess he has matured a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yella_Forever 0 Posted August 22, 2011 One of my saved tweets is one of Rio''s where he talks about Simeon Jackson scoring the goal to get us promoted... He know a lot about football and obviously watches a lot too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viva_Marc_Libbra 0 Posted August 22, 2011 What was said about Norwich in Rios Autobiography?I was quite surprised he knew so much about Norwich, but good on him. Holt will be one of the toughest strikers he''ll face this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lambo 0 Posted August 22, 2011 I like Rio Ferdinand, talks a lot of sense on their IMO. Great defender too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He looked a real halfwit back then aswell as on that ''Beadles About'' type tv show he did where he kept going on about ''getting Merc''d''. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itsnowornever 0 Posted August 23, 2011 please be serious, i am an avid norwich fan but vidic, yes i admit if he is fit, he has no concerns about holt. we are trying to make holt a cult figure. Vidic is too experienced, and he did play an international game recvently against a far bigger player than holt and won hands down. i am just being realistic.
