Ferdinand eyes next medal
Rio Ferdinand is hoping to have added a few more medals to his ever-growing collection by the end of the season.[LNB] The England international defender has been an integral part of the Manchester United side that has dominated at home and abroad over the last 12 months.[LNB]A Premier League title and UEFA Champions League crown were successfully secured last term, while the Club World Cup and Carling Cup have been added in the 2008/09 campaign.[LNB]That healthy medal haul has helped to take Ferdinand's collection to six, but the commanding centre-half is not done yet.[LNB]With top-flight glory, European dominance and the FA Cup still up for grabs this season, the 30-year-old insists no-one at Old Trafford is resting on their laurels.[LNB]"It is great to win what we have over the past 12 months but if we finish the season just winning the Carling Cup I would be disappointed," he said.[LNB]"That is not to undermine the competition. When I have finished my career it will be added to the lots of trophies I have won.[LNB]"We want to try and achieve more and win more trophies."[LNB]High standardsFerdinand admits he has always had an insatiable appetite for success, believing anyone who settles for second best should contemplate walking away of the game.[LNB]"I have never been satisfied with anything," he added.[LNB]"As soon as you feel like that, you might as well pack it in.[LNB]"I felt that way even as a kid. I was in Sunday league teams that won stuff but I still wanted more.[LNB]"There are always goals out there to attain and you have to keep striving to reach them.[LNB]He added: "I have worked very hard to get to a club that is capable of winning a lot of things.[LNB]"I want to stay here as long as possible. To do that I must maintain high standards. That means winning trophies.[LNB]"People say you are winning loads of stuff but I still have people like (Ryan) Giggs, (Paul) Scholes and (Gary) Neville in the changing room who have won a lot more than me. They are the inspiration for everyone else."[LNB]
