As it happened: Manchester United v Liverpool, according to Rio Ferdinand

The former Manchester United defender has been livetweeting the match

For those of you who are fed up of the usual TV commentators, their cliches and hackneyed phrases, Rio Ferdinand has provided you with an alternative. The Queens Park Rangers defender obviously has a keen interest in the game, having spent 12 years at Old Trafford. Ferdinand has been keeping his Twitter followers up to date on the match in a way that only he can. Apologies, we cannot provide any translation, you're just going to have to work out what "Barcadi breezed" means from the context.
