Former Manchester United defender, Rio Ferdinand, has admitted he wants Arsenal to win the Premier League title this season.
Ferdinand, speaking on his Vibe with FIVE podcast, noted that the Gunners were in the title race along with Liverpool and Manchester City.
But he criticised the reaction of some Arsenal fans after they went top of the Premier League table at the weekend.
Kai Havertz’s late goal sealed a 2-1 win over Brentford on Saturday evening to put Mikel Arteta’s side in top spot.
They have remained at the summit on goal difference following Liverpool’s 1-1 draw with Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday.
Joel Beya, an Arsenal supporter who hosts the podcast alongside Ferdinand, showed up for Monday’s show with a fake cigar and wearing sunglasses, while displaying a mini replica of the Premier League trophy.
“There are three teams playing now to win the league which is Liverpool, Man City and Arsenal – I actually want you boys to win it,” Ferdinand told Beya.
“But you and some of your fans make me not want you to win it.”
