When given the choice, everyone didn't expect this to be his answer
Prior to the Manchester United vs Leicester City community shield tie, Rio Ferdinand was asked who would be harder to defend against - Zlatan Ibrahimovic or Jamie Vardy.
Now, let's break that question down:
The big Swede scored a whopping 50 goals for PSG last season, over double Jamie Vardy's 24. Ibrahimovic stands a lump at 6ft 5in, while the Leicester striker has a more wirey frame and is 5ft 10in. We think we have our answer. However, the former United defensive stalwart stunned everybody with his. Speaking on BT Sport, Ferdinand said: "I'd rather play against Zlatan, the reason being he comes to the ball more often, he doesn't really run in behind and ask you questions. Defenders don't want to be running towards their own goal. "But, Vardy, he asks you physically, 'can you stay with me for 90 minutes', and it's difficult for a defender to do it."
