"Simeone's a lunatic!": Rio Ferdinand on Atletico Madrid boss

Rio Ferdinand admits he is a fan of Diego Simeone. He made this clear once again on 'BT Sport' where he analysing the match between RB Leipzig and Atletico Madrid. Although some many think he was criticising the Argentine, he was actually praising him. 

"He's a lunatic! You can watch him on his own. he's like a soap opera on his own. You can stand there and watch him and he will talk you through the emotions just by watching him," the former central defender said. 

"He is such a huge competitor, a bit like when he played, but his team reflects his personality and that is the sign of a fantastic manager," he added.

It is worth explaining that Simeone has been criticised by many after being knocked out by RB Leipzig. Club president Enrique Cerezo even had to come out to defend him.
