Rio Ferdinand Warns Arteta: Don’t Park the Bus Against Manchester City

1 / 3

Rio Ferdinand has warned Mikel Arteta not to adopt a defensive game plan when Arsenal face Manchester City next Sunday. City have narrowed the gap at the top of the Premier League to six points after dismantling Chelsea 3-0. Arsenal arrive off the back of a cup final defeat and a surprise loss to Bournemouth, while City still have a game in hand. On his YouTube channel, Ferdinand urged Arteta to play on the front foot. He pointed to Bournemouth’s high press as a blueprint and said sitting back would allow City’s attack to tear Arsenal apart.
