No 7: Rio Ferdinand My dad, Harry Redknapp, rang me to say: ‘I’ve got a chance of signing Rio Ferdinand for QPR’. I like Rio, and loved him as a player but I was uncertain. After his illustrious Manchester United career, I expected him to glide off into the TV studio or to chase other business interests. Dad said: ‘I’ve looked him in the eyes and he wants to play.’ He hasn’t gone for the money, that’s for sure, as he is not the highest paid player at QPR, but he’s in this list because I’m excited to see how it works out for him. He will be defending differently from his time at United and he has put himself under pressure with this move but he looks in excellent shape in preseason. The small pitch at QPR might help him and having Steven Caulker next to him certainly will.
