Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand was clearly impressed by the performance of Toni Kroos for Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
The 24-year old German midfielder, who was reportedly a transfer target for the Red Devils in January, starred for the Bavarians as they beat Arsenal 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium.
Kroos scored Bayern's opening goal in the 54th minute with a superb curling effort and had other chances in a sublime showing in a central midfield role which prompted the following tweets from Ferdinand.
Kroos left foot looked hungry for that top corner !!

Kroos is really putting on a clinic here....passing the ball crisply and with real intent to open up the opposition. Lovely to watch
