Did the England captain get decked?
Rio Ferdinand turned up at Manchester Airport yesterday sporting a huge shiner on his left eye. His agent claimed he picked it up during the Aston Villa pummeling at the weekend, but John O’Shea was overheard asking him what had happened, and Rio evasively said: “I’ll tell you later.”
If it was picked up during a game, wouldn’t O’Shea have been aware of it, and wouldn’t Rio have delivered the simple explanation?
Did anyone see the offending incident during the Villa game? Or has Ferdinand received some comeuppance for one too many ‘merking’ incidents? Post your comments and zany conspiracy theories below, please.

he is too good, and many players get jealous of what a brilliant defender he is, maybe even rite now he is the best, so dont be biased.
