Since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure, the Red Devils have failed to win the Premier League title again, and a true curse has fallen on Old Trafford, preventing them from ever embracing glory again.

Speaking in this context, former Reds defender and club legend Rio Ferdinand confirmed that even some of the team's current names, had they been under the leadership of the legendary Alex Ferguson, would have experienced the same pressure and failed to achieve anything either.

What did Rio Ferdinand say about this!

The legendary player remembered his distinguished generation, during which he achieved many successes and titles."Players of our mentality – myself, Vidić, Keane, Giggs – we'd have found this current climate unbearable," the United legend confessed during a candid podcast discussion. “When results desert you and foundations feel shaky, even the strongest characters crumble. This club needs to forge something truly special – something unprecedented in its storied history.”

The former England defender didn't mask his apprehension about the opening fixtures: "That brutal six-game stretch could define everything. Months of preparation evaporate after two bad results. Once doubt creeps in, it infects everything. Those first positive results aren't just points – they're oxygen for a squad gasping for belief."
