Rio Ferdinand believes the nagging fear of failure will drive Manchester United towards glory. United now know they will face Barcelona in Rome's Olympic Stadium on May 27 when they attempt to become the first side to successfully defend the Champions League. It is the second half of a double achieved last season that, if repeated, would allow the current crop of Red Devils to join the list of immortals. But with seven points still required from four games to clinch a hat-trick of Premier League titles, Ferdinand is taking nothing for granted. 'I'll only be able to tell you after the final whether we are the best United team or not,' said the 30-year-old.
