Rio Ferdinand was full of praise for the United forward Marcus Rashford, who is in the form of his life. Rashford banged in an opener from outside the box, giving the United lead over Arsenal in the Premier League game. He shared a tweet of his views on Rashford’s goal and the war of words between Morgan and Ferdinand started. 

In reply to his tweet, Ferdinand tagged Morgan saying, “I’ve been seeing ur posts!”. Morgan quickly replied to the tweet claiming United players are snowflakes and Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey bullied them. However, the United legend didn’t hold back and mocked Morgan by sharing the clip of Rashford’s goal in response. 

The clip shows Rashford nutmegging Partey before scoring a banger. Ferdinand tweeted, “Close ya legs!” mocking Morgan, who was praising the midfielder in the previous tweet. Ferdinand may have won the Twitter battle with Morgan, but the British Broadcaster had a last laugh as Arsenal went on to win the game. 

After the explosive interview with Ronaldo, where the soccer star mocked the club, legends, youngsters at the club, and manager, Morgan hasn’t been on good terms with United legends and fans. Meanwhile, Morgan’s favorite club won the game and extended their lead to five points at the top.
