Rio Ferdinand: Veterans Will Give Manchester United The Edge

When it comes to winning Premier League titles, nobody is better than Manchester United.

The Red Devils have racked up some ten triumphs since the competition's inception in 1992. The next best are Arsenal, with three.

The likes of Paul Scholes and Gary Neville have been vital contributors to the club's success in the past 15 years, while Ryan Giggs has been around for every one of Sir Alex Ferguson's titles.

And Rio Ferdinand, 30, believes the most experienced members of the United squad will take charge and get the job done at the business end of the campaign.

He said in The Sun, “It is easier when you have experienced players in your camp - the likes of Giggsy [Ryan Giggs], Nev [Gary Neville], Scholesey [Paul Scholes] - players who have won the league before.

“Maybe that is the edge we have on other teams.”

United currently sit two points clear of Liverpool and Chelsea at the top of the table.
