The Late Run

Rio Ferdinand joins Chad Ochocinco and Raheemovic for one of the most loaded episodes of The Late Run yet; going deep on what Cristiano Ronaldo was REALLY like in the Man United dressing room, why being called a "hard worker" is the one thing that offends him, and how Sir Alex Ferguson's psychological genius kept players motivated even when he dropped them. Rio tells the wild story of sitting in the Leeds chairman's office for 8 hours to force his move to Manchester United, only for the police to warn him never to come back to Yorkshire. Plus, Ocho and Rio discover they BOTH secretly did ballet, settle the Messi vs Ronaldo GOAT debate, compare NFL and soccer athletes head-to-head, and Rio reacts to his infamous "Get the contract out" Ole Gunnar Solskjaer rant. Rio's coming to the US for the World Cup this summer — this is the conversation you need to hear first. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
