Antonio Rudiger?  "Premier League's best center-back!"  Legend ennobles Chelsea star

The English ex-international Rio Ferdinand is enthusiastic about Antonio Rüdiger’s achievements. For Ferdinand, the Chelsea FC defender is the strongest central defender in the Premier League. Even before Ruben Dias from Manchester City and Liverpool star Virgil van Dijk.

On his official YouTube-Canal said Ferdinand about Rüdiger: “Since (Thomas) Tuchel took over, he was probably the best central defender. It’s close for me between him and Dias. But the effect Rüdiger had on his team is huge.”

Indeed, the 47-time national player has seen positive development at Chelsea since Thomas Tuchel succeeded Frank Lampard in the coaching position. If he was in a difficult position before, Rüdiger is now a contested regular.

“It was obvious that Frank couldn’t do much with him,” explained Ferdinand. “He really didn’t like him. There were also rumors that he was going to be sold.”

In Germany, however, Rüdiger has always enjoyed great esteem, according to the 2008 Champions League winner: “But if the coach doesn’t like you and you feel it, then it doesn’t matter how great your self-confidence is. Then you can’t go for the highest Play level. “
