“It used to wake me up”- Ferdinand says ex-England teammate Lampard’s bathroom habits were a ‘bummer’ due to ‘long, loud p*ss’

Former England defender Rio Ferdinand has reflected on the moments he shared with Frank Lampard during their time with the national team. The Manchester United legend revealed the duo were roommates during their time with the Three Lions and also explained what it felt like sharing with the Chelsea hero.

According to Ferdinand, Lampard had a good sleeping habit, but the ex-midfielder's late-night bathroom habits were a “bummer” and disturbed his sleep.

"When I got called up for England I used to share with Frank Lampard. He didn’t snore or anything and he was mostly good but the only thing that was a bit of a bummer was that at midnight he would go to the toilet and it was quite loud.

"In fact it was really loud. So loud that it used to wake me up. This long, loud p*ss," the former Manchester United centre-back said on BT Sports.

Rio Ferdinand and Frank Lampard both had lengthy spells in the Premier League. The former made his Premier League debut in 1999 and retired from active football in 2015 while the latter's debut and retirement came in 2001 and 2017 respectively.
