Rio Ferdinand, a Manchester United legend, expressed his regret that his former club did not sign Ezri Konsa before his £55m move to Arsenal from Aston Villa. Konsa has made a significant impact at Arsenal, stepping in for the injured William Saliba and contributing to 13 wins in 16 games this season. His impressive performance against Liverpool, where Arsenal secured a 1-0 victory at Anfield, drew high praise from Ferdinand, who advised his son, Tate Ferdinand of Brighton's academy, to study Konsa's play. Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta now faces a positive selection dilemma, with Ferdinand suggesting Konsa could move to right-back, potentially challenging Jurrien Timber, upon Saliba's return. Arteta lauded his team's "remarkable" performance in ending their 14-year wait for a win at Anfield.
