Rio Ferdinand has taken a savage dig at Arsenal while heaping praise on Manchester United's match winner on Sunday.
A 39th minute goal from Bruno Fernandes proved enough for Erik ten Hag's men to beat Aston Villa aT Old Trafford, leaving them well placed in their bid for Champions League football. Fourth-placed United now enjoy a seven-point cushion over nearest challengers Liverpool, having played a game less than their rivals.
And Portuguese star Fernandes, 28, will be a pivotal figure as the Red Devils fight to dine again at Europe's top table. Since joining the club from Sporting Lisbon in 2019, the midfielder has scored 61 goals and made 54 assists in 178 appearances, and this season has regularly worn the captain's armband in place of Harry Maguire.
