Ferdinand: It's a massive gameManchester United defender Rio Ferdinand says he is looking forward to this weekends clash with rivals Liverpool and is hoping the club can put in a better performance than they did at Anfield last season.
"It's a massive game and we want to get a good result," said Ferdinand.
"Hopefully we can go there and put on a better show than the last time we were there.
"It's only down the motorway, there's great tradition and rivalry between the two clubs and I think it's getting enhanced year by year. The media make a big deal about it, the players feel that, the fans feel that.
"It's going to be a great atmosphere and one we're looking forward to."
On the match last season, which Ferdinand missed through injury, he added: "Me and Sheasy (midfielder John O'Shea) got pelted with obscenities and coins and stuff but it was a great atmosphere, it was brilliant to be a fan watching but I'd much rather be out there playing and getting the three points on the pitch,"
"Different grounds throw up different things. Sometimes what happens on the pitch determines the hostility in the stadium but Anfield's a good place to go, their fans are very vocal, but you could say that about every other club in the league to be honest."
