Rio Ferdinand: Di Maria will come good for United

Via Goal.com:

In an interview with Goal.com United legend Rio Ferdinand claims under-fire Di Maria will become a hit at Old Trafford - however it will take time.



"I thought Di Maria was a great signing for United and I still think he was a good signing because he is a top player," Ferdinand told Goal at Heineken’s #ChampiontheMatch event in Amsterdam.



"He was arguably Madrid’s best player last year, him and Ronaldo were their standout players. I think he is a highly talented player.



"But it always takes time for a player to adapt to his new surroundings, especially when you go to a foreign league. Not every player can be like Ronaldo and just turn up and instantly become a superstar. Maybe it will take Di Maria a bit longer. It might take him a year, you never know.



"But his style does suit the Premier League. He is quick, runs at people, hungry to create chances and commit people. I think he is a very talented player and I like him."
