Queens Park Rangers legend Rodney Marsh believes it may be time for Rio Ferdinand to hang up his boots and retire from football.

Ex-Manchester United star Ferdinand signed a one-year deal for the West London side this summer after being released by Manchester United.

But, only seven games into his Loftus Road career, Ferdinand is being criticised by fans and the media, with Harry Redknapp’s side rock bottom of the Premier League with the worst goal difference in the top-flight.

Speaking to Extra Time, Marsh said: “The players had a lot to answer for on Sunday [against West Ham] but, for me, Rio Ferdinand looked like he played in diver’s boots. He’s had one year too many for me. If he carries on like this for the next ten games, it won’t salvage his season.

“It’s probably all over for Rio. He’s a great, great player but at the moment, he’s really, really struggling.”
