QPR veteran Ferdinand: Worst time to go to Man Utd

QPR defender Rio Ferdinand admits there's some fear going to Manchester United tomorrow.

Ferdinand thinks that big-name signings Angel di Maria and Radamel Falcao will lift United and get their season rolling.

He told The Sun: "The timing could not have been worse for us. They (Di Maria and Falcao) are two world-class players. They will be raring to go and wanting to prove themselves to the United fans.

"I've played against Di Maria before and really liked him. He's a really good runner with the ball - quick and direct - and one of the hardest players to play against.

"United have not had the best of starts and I have to do a professional job. I'm sure there will be a few emotions on my part but I have to put those to one side."
