By Kirsty Grant and Steffan Powell
Manchester United had the best team in Europe and won all of football's major prizes while Rio Ferdinand was playing, which the player puts down to hard work, top talent and…… video games? 曼徹斯特聯隊擁有歐洲最好的球隊，並在裡約·費迪南德（Rio Ferdinand）踢球時贏得了所有足球比賽的主要獎項，而這歸功於辛勤工作，頂尖才華和……視頻遊戲？
"How people would play in a game, those traits would come through in football," the ex-England international tells Radio 1 Newsbeat. 這位前英格蘭國際球員對第一電臺說：「人們在遊戲中會怎樣玩，那些特質會在足球中體現出來。」
Playing games like SOCOM - a tactical shooting game - and Fifa helped with "team bonding" and was a "big, integral part" of the team's most successful era, according to Rio. Rio說，玩戰術射擊遊戲SOCOM之類的遊戲和FIFA有助於「團隊合作」，並且是球隊最成功時代的「重要組成部分」。
"I can only speak for myself, it helped us," he says - adding that gaming should be encouraged for the England team. 他說：「我只能為自己說話，這對我們有所幫助。」他補充說，英格蘭隊應該鼓勵遊戲。
"If it could help Gareth Southgate then he should get involved." 「如果這可以幫助Gareth Southgate，那麼他應該參與其中。」
Rio's part of a new campaign, Get Smart About P.L.A.Y, aiming to get parents more involved in their children's gaming habits. Rio參與了一項新運動，「玩中變聰明」，旨在使父母更多地參與孩子的遊戲習慣。
"I had no idea you could put timers on - and get notifications when they're buying things," Rio says. Rio說：「我不知道您可以設置計時器-在他們購買商品時收到通知。」
"Until you can get all of that, you don't really have a proper grasp of what they're doing." 「直到您能獲得所有這些，您才真正正確了解他們的所作所為。」
"I think parents have got to accept that from now on gaming is an integral parts of their kids' lives, so don't get left behind." 「我認為父母必須接受從現在開始遊戲是他們孩子生活中不可或缺的一部分，所以不要被拋在後面。」
'It's tough love'這是艱難的愛
There have been concerns that things like loot boxes in games - where players don't know what's in a box until they've paid money for it - resemble gambling, with calls for younger gamers to be banned from using them. 人們一直擔心遊戲中的戰利品盒之類的東西-賭博，禁止年輕的遊戲玩家使用它們，在遊戲中，玩家直到付錢才知道盒子裡有什麼。
The UK Interactive Entertainment Association (Ukie) wants parents to play games with their children and keep up to date with the time and money being spent on them. 英國互動娛樂協會（Ukie）希望父母與孩子一起玩遊戲，並及時了解花在他們身上的時間和金錢。
Although his professional football career has ended, the former Manchester United defender is still enjoying his virtual one, playing Fifa regularly with his kids. 儘管他的職業足球生涯已經結束，但這位前曼聯的後衛仍然喜歡他的虛擬橄欖球，經常與他的孩子們玩Fifa。

But he says he has strict rules to avoid them spending all night on consoles. 但是他說他有嚴格的規定，避免他們整夜在遊戲機上度過。
He says a lot of people "shove their kids on the computer for an easy life", but he prefers to keep up to date with how they are gaming. 他說，很多人「為了方便生活而把他們的孩子扔在計算機上」，但是他更喜歡跟上他們的遊戲方式。

He says that if you were playing with someone who's "selfish" on the pitch, you knew what the outcome would be on the console. 他說，如果您與在球場上「自私」的人一起玩，您會知道在遊戲機控制臺上會取得什麼結果。
If he needed help from his teammates in a first-person shooter game, certain players would be "off doing their own thing".如果他在第一人稱射擊遊戲中需要隊友的幫助，某些球員將「不做自己的事」。
"That's normally a number nine on the pitch, a striker." 「通常，這是球場上的第九名，前鋒。」
He's still a big fan of Fifa, but doesn't think the feeling is reciprocated. 他仍然是Fifa的忠實擁護者，但並不認為這種感覺是對的。
"I've made it known because they did undervalue my pace quite a lot, and my passing." 「我之所以廣為人知，是因為他們確實大大低估了我的步伐以及我的過關。」
So now that's he's retired and only available as an "Icon" in one of the game's online modes, is he still bothered? 因此，既然他已經退休，並且只能在遊戲的一種在線模式下以「圖標」的身份出現，他是否仍然感到困擾？
"I've asked for the Fifa fella's number about 100 times," he says. "Nobody's given it to me." 「我已經要求國際足聯提供約100次」他說，「沒人給我。」
