Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has expressed his disagreement with the club over the sacking of head coach Michael Carrick.

Former Man United midfielder Carrick, was dismissed from his role as head coach of the English Premier League side after the Red Devils picked up just a win in 10 league games.

At the time of writing, Man United rank 18th in the 20 team league standings on the back of losses to Atletico Madrid and FC Como in the UEFA Champions League.

Former Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino, is expected to be named as Man United head coach but Rio Ferdinand wasn’t happy about Carrick’s exit.

“Personally I am disappointed that they have got rid of him.”

“This was his first bump in the road and first moment where things have not gone to plan. How did they not let him ride it out? I think he could have been given more time to rectify things” Ferdinand said on his YouTube channel.
