Ferdinand has been out injured since early February<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

Captain Rio Ferdinand has urged Manchester United to lift their game after a recent run of poor form.<\/b><\/p>\n

Since the team’s lacklustre 1-0 FA Cup victory over non-league Crawley Town last month, United have a record of won one, drawn one and lost two. <\/p>\n

“Chelsea and Liverpool, they were difficult games, they were never going to be easy,” Ferdinand told the BBC. <\/p>\n

“We have now got to distance ourselves from those and look to our future games,” said the centre-back. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Old Trafford club lost 2-1 to Chelsea and 3-1 to Liverpool, games Ferdinand missed because of a calf injury and is unlikely to be risked in Saturday’s FA Cup showdown with Arsenal. <\/p>\n

United are hoping that the game against the Gunners will provide a timely boost ahead of next Tuesday’s Champions League second leg against Marseille, but Ferdinand is just one member of a lengthy injury list. <\/p>\n

Also on the treatment table are Nani (shin), Anderson (knee) and Jonny Evans (foot), along with longer-term absentees Antonio Valencia (ankle), Owen Hargreaves (knee), Michael Owen (groin), and Park Ji-Sung (hamstring).<\/p>\n

\t\t\t“No-one really got ‘off the leash’ in that game<\/b>

<\/p>\n

With centre-back Nemaja Vidic suspended and other players in poor form – Dimitar Berbatov has not scored in his last seven outings for the club – the team has appeared to lack the self-belief which saw them unbeaten in the Premier League until they lost 2-1 to Wolves on 5 February. <\/p>\n

Ferdinand has refused to set a date for his return to the team. <\/p>\n

“I am just trying to get fit, my manager is the one who will say when I come back,” he said, at an energy saving project backed the sponsors of the FA Cup. <\/p>\n

Looking ahead to the game against Marseille, the England international described the French club as a “decent side” following their performance in the 0-0 first-leg encounter. <\/p>\n

“No-one really got ‘off the leash’ in that game and we hope things will be different when they come to our place,” he added. <\/p>\n
