Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand has cautioned Arsenal against adopting a defensive approach when they face Manchester City in their upcoming Premier League showdown.
Speaking via his YouTube channel, Ferdinand warned that Arsenal could suffer heavily if they attempt to play for a draw or sit deep against Pep Guardiola’s side.
He referenced recent performances and insisted that such a strategy would not be enough to secure positive results at the Etihad Stadium.
Arsenal, managed by Mikel Arteta, currently sit at the top of the Premier League table but are under pressure following recent results as the title race intensifies.
