Rio Ferdinand joins BT Sport coverage from home due to BAD BACK… but fans more worried about Man Utd legend’s hangers
MANCHESTER UNITED legend Rio Ferdinand joined in with the BT Sport coverage from home tonight because he is suffering with a BAD BACK.
But many football fans were more concerned that he might have left his coat hanger in his shirt!
The 42-year-old was part of the presenting team for United’s Champions League clash at home to Atalanta.
Many believe it is must-win for boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, as pressure ramps up on the Norwegian.
But Ferdinand was in the comfort of his own home as he nurses some pain in his back.
However, eagle-eyed Twitter users think they spotted what could be adding to the former England man’s problem.
Dave Button tweeted: “Some1 tell @rioferdy5 that he’s left coat hanger in his top.”
Another advised Ferdinand that he “needs to stop using a hanger for that garment”.

Myke Murphy joked that he is going to “need a bigger coat hanger for this shirt”.
Danny Lambert asked the former footy star whether he had “forgotten to take the hanger off”.
Many were left wondering the same thing.
Ferdinand suffered with back problems throughout his career – ultimately playing a big factor in his retirement at the age of 36 in 2015.
He played for West Ham, Leeds, Manchester United and QPR in a glittering 19-year career that also saw him win 81 caps for England.
