Rangers have yet to win a Premier League match this season despite their off-season recruitment drive, which saw them make no fewer than ten signings.

This has resulted in speculation surrounding Hughes' future at Loftus Road. And Ferdinand is getting annoyed by the rumours and believes that the fans must buy into the club's long-term project.

"The criticism our manager is getting is unfair," said the 29-year-old, quoted in The Sun.

"We are working hard for the club and trying to relieve that pressure on him. But people really need to get a sense of perspective. Rome wasn't built in a day.

"We have brought in a lot of new players and it takes time to come together as a team. We have had plenty of injuries which means the gaffer has had to change the team even more.

"We haven't had a settled side but we are working hard every day in training and we're confident of turning things around."
