Rio Ferdinand, a former player for Manchester United who is now a pundit for BT Sport, is of the opinion that one player for Chelsea should try to emulate Yaya Toure’s playing style.
The commentator from BT Sport thinks that Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek ought to play more like Yaya Toure, who played for Manchester City in the past.
During his time with Manchester City in the Premier League, Yaya Toure was a dynamic midfielder who was able to easily push the ball from the middle all the way into the final third of the opposing team’s end zone.
Loftus-Cheek also possesses the skills that Yaya Toure does, including the ability to push the ball and keep it away from his opponents while playing in the middle of the field for Chelsea.
Rio Ferdinand is of the opinion that the Englishman is a player of the highest caliber and should aspire to be like Yaya Toure, who was a brilliant midfielder for Manchester City in the past.
Even if he is not participating in the preseason trip with the Blues due to concerns regarding his Covid 19 immunization status, Ruben Loftus-Cheek is expected to play a significant role for Chelsea in the upcoming season.
The following is a post from the official account of Frank Khalid’s Twitter account, which confirms what Rio Ferdinand said about Loftus-Cheek;
