EPL: Rio Ferdinand names Man Utd player who must step up after Baleba's injury

Rio Ferdinand says Youri Tielemans must step up at Manchester United after Carlos Baleba suffered a hamstring injury. Baleba was injured in United's 3-2 Champions League win over AS Roma, with Tielemans replacing him in the 51st minute at Old Trafford. Speaking on his podcast, Ferdinand said he hoped Tielemans would build a run of games, regain form and become part of the team. Baleba is expected to miss Sunday's Premier League clash with Aston Villa, and Tielemans could start in his place.
