Ferdinand said: "He doesn't normally play there, he plays right wing, but I think he can play there.

"He's got a load of assists this year, he's improved this year, end product, scoring some goals and I've seen him just destroy full-backs."

He added: 'Wilfried divides opinion all the time because of the way he plays."
