He hasn't outshone anyone, but he seems to be our lucky star somewhat. i'd like to see giggs keep the armband until Keane returns - even if Becks is back before Keane.

I would not mind Gary Neville having it for a game or two, if only to allow him the chance to break his jinx.But, sure, why go against something that is working? By all means, let it be Giggs.

Yeah he had a rather quiet game with regards to his high standards.
But then again, the most dfficult thing he did was to decide the coin's toss and shake Pat's hand.

i don't think he was all terrible.. he's been pretty much what he's been this whole season - playing out of position, and not coping very well with it.

Nah i didn't say he was lousy. Just that on a night where most played above their normal selves, Giggsy had a quiet game.
Of course we cant ignore the fact it's a team game n he did put in his share of effort for that win.
However, most players are playing out of position at the moment, and its no excuse IMO. Me just hope he turns it on sooner rather than later.

i agree with you here.. but then if giggs can't adapt like the others then he should be put back to where he plays best.. i'm not sure that playing him where he doesn't like will help with his confidence and how it will affect us as a team in the long run..
altho him getting the armband back must have raised his morale more or less.
Giggs is a red and i'm sure he'll produce some magical form again soon.
