RIO FERDINAND fears that Manchester United might not win again in the Prem this season.
The Old Trafford legend has no confidence in Ruben Amorim’s side — who are still in the Europa League and FA Cup but only 12 points clear of the drop zone.

In fact, the former centre back has expressed fears of a potential relegation to the Championship.
United are rotting in 15th place in the table after losing for the 12th time this season following a 1-0 defeat by fellow horror show Spurs.
The 12 defeats are the most from their first 25 matches of a league campaign since 1973-74 – which ended in the club being relegated.
Ferdinand, 46, said on his YouTube channel: “Only Wolves and West Ham separate my club from the relegation places.
“Do you realise we’re that close? Someone said we need 11 points just to stay up.
“I’ve got the fixture list: Everton away, Ipswich at home, Arsenal and Nottingham Forest away.
“Before hosting Man City, and going to Newcastle away, and then Wolves, Bournemouth, Brentford, Chelsea, Aston Villa, Leicester.
“The only place I see us getting anything — and I’m not even saying a win — is Leicester.

“I’m not seeing wins. That’s the problem.”
One month ago, Everton were nine points adrift of the Red Devils but have now climbed a point above them in the table under the new manager bounce leadership of David Moyes.
Ferdinand’s nerves come after United endured their eighth Prem defeat under Amorim, who joined the historic club in November.
A couple of wins would of course ease those concerns and leave United on track for what must be now regarded as a best-case scenario – mid-table obscurity with some deep runs in the FA Cup and Europa League.
But a fresh injury crisis threatens to complicate an already dire situation.
Amorim, 40, was without 12 squad players at Spurs, including Amad Diallo, Kobbie Mainoo, Manuel Ugarte, and Christian Eriksen.
Meanwhile, Wolves will continue fighting and put in a stunning second-half display against Liverpool on Sunday.
In fact, Vitor Pereira’s side could’ve got something out of the game – which finished 2-1 – after restricting the Prem leaders to zero attempts in the second 45 minutes.
With 29 points after 25 games, and 31 points behind leaders Liverpool, United are now only two spots above the drop.
