Following their hard-fought 2-2 draw at Anfield on Sunday, Rio Ferdinand has lavished praise on Manchester United players.
The former England international also wants the Red Devils to sustain the momentum and set a standard.
The 2-2 draw away at Liverpool was United’s second consecutive stalemate against The Reds in the Premier League.
Liverpool, against all expectations, failed to extend their lead in the Premier League.
The first half ended goalless before Lisandro Martinez opened the scoring for the visitors in the 52nd minute.
The home side equalised within the next seven minutes courtesy of Cody Gakpo.
Mohamed Salah made it 2-1 for the Reds, converting from the penalty spot in the 67th minute.
Manchester United fought back to earn a point through Amad Diallo who made it 2-2 in the 80th minute.
Ferdinand took to X after the game and praised the Red Devils.
He wrote, “That’s what I want to see from @ManUtd. They have shown what’s in them when they show spirit, desire, effort and some quality in possession.
“These players have set the standard that needs to be maintained now…the players will feel that performance and know the standard.
“Now they have to govern that changing room and put demands on each other everyday in training and every match day.
“There will be a satisfied (maybe some feeling could have had more) feeling on that coach home. Remember what it took to create that feeling. Keep building confidence & understanding day by day.”
