\n
Manchester United legend, Rio Ferdinand has expressed his frustration with the Red Devils following their 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Sunday.<\/p>\n
DAILY POST reports that Brennan Johnson put the visitors in front in the first few minutes of the game orchestrated by Micky van de Ven.<\/p>\n
Van de Ven ran through the length of the Red Devils\u2019 half before putting the ball on a plate for Johnson to finish in the 3rd minute.<\/p>\n
Then to add insult to injury, United captain, Bruno Fernandes was shown a straight red card in the 42nd minute.<\/p>\n
Dejan Kulusevski made it 2-0 for Spurs in the 47th minute while Dominic Solanke sealed the three points for Spurs.<\/p>\n
Ferdinand, who won many titles with the Red Devils spoke after the game through his YouTube channel., \u201cAnd we\u2019ll get to the red card in a minute, but Van Der Ven ran through the whole team. And I look at it and just think, but it happened mid-week as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt happened mid-week. Where\u2019s the pride, man? Like, I just, I don\u2019t know, that fight doesn\u2019t seem like it\u2019s where it should be.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were an embarrassment today. The red card shouldn\u2019t be an excuse for anybody at Man United now. It shouldn\u2019t be an excuse for anyone at the football club.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe were terrible. We were terrible to watch. It was a terrible kind of representation of who we are and what we are right now.<\/p>\n
\u201cGiving the ball away, constantly. I\u2019m ranting here, but I can\u2019t help it. I sat there and watched the game and just thought, what the hell are we?\u201d<\/p>\n
