Rio Ferdinand shared his thoughts regarding Thomas Tuchel
Former Manchester United player Ferdinand said on Vibe with FIVE YouTube show:
“Especially when there’s a lot of wild opinions and wild things being said behind the scenes, like with formations and with certain individual players that the new ownership want out of the team.
“I think Mendy would be one of them in terms of kicking the ball and his distribution. And talking about tactics things – I don’t know if an owner should be talking about things like that. Your manager is there to deal with that, you let him manage it.”
He further added,
“It’s a good formation if you can get away with one extra player on the pitch! They’re the kind of stories that I’m hearing as well, trying to influence even player selection.
I think Tuchel, the personality and character that he is, would have looked at that and gone, “Woah, I’m not accepting that!” Some other managers might have thought, “It’s new owners so I’ll do as they say and I’ll dance to their tune” but I don’t think Thomas Tuchel is that guy.”
He also added,
“I think the big issue a lot of people behind the scenes at Chelsea have is: why let him have the money if you knew you were going to get rid of him?
It’s a clear lack of understanding of football. It has to be. This guy understands how to run American sports teams, but it’s very different how they transfer and recruit players, very different model.”
