Ferdinand in Gazzetta: “I had a tough game with Charisteas, Zagorakis is the strong one, the leader” (Video)

Legendary Rio Ferdinand, through Gazeta, praised Zagorakis, Charistia and Giannakopoulos, commented on Tsimikas before the UEFA All-Star game with the Greek legends and did not talk about “she is coming home”.

Rio Ferdinand. A legend. A great character who played 691 matches in his career (81 for England) through him. magazineHe recalls England’s games with Greece, points out players, highlights 2004 legends, while not uttering the infamous phrase “It’s coming home”, because he’s a fanatic.

Rio Ferdinand’s statements to La Gazzetta:

How will Greece be treated after all these years?

“Nice. I had a good time last time. I didn’t play well then. We were a bit lucky. But I’m happy to see the kids. I see all my friends for coffee, and we also have a drink. I drink beer, they drink coffee. They’re very serious. Let’s see now. It was nice to see the friends.”

Was there a player who surprised you?

“Zaka… Zaka… what’s his name? Zagorakis, Zagorakis he’s good. The nine is the scorer (Charisteas). I’m bad with names. And Giannakopoulos. Those three are the main ones for me. I had a tough game with the nine, Zagorakis is the strong one, the leader. And Giannakopoulos the Bolton player was a very good player, man.”

What do you think of Kostas Tsimikas?

“Good player. I think every time he plays he does a good job. He’s Robertson’s replacement. Good player, man.”
