Man City signing Clichy swipe at Man Utd fans leaves Ferdinand fuming

Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand was left unimpressed by Gael Clichy's first interview as a Manchester City player. The former Arsenal fullback signed for City yesterday and immediately took aim at Ferdinand's teammate Patrice Evra and United fans.

On the City support, Clichy declared: "I understand that the people who live in Manchester are the true fans. They are from City.

"That is a good point. I won't be bothered by United fans."

An upset Ferdinand tweeted yesterday: "Why do people sign for clubs then get sucked in to chatting about things they have ZERO clue about?!"
