Returning Ferdinand surprised by United's slow start


LONDON (Reuters) - Rio Ferdinand said he is surprised by Manchester United's poor start to life under Louis van Gaal but believes the Dutchman is the man to restore the club's former glory.

After 12 trophy-laden years at Old Trafford, Ferdinand left in the summer to join Queens Park Rangers but has watched from afar as United have failed to win any of their opening four matches including a League Cup thrashing at third tier MK Dons.
