where did it all go wrong????

Needs a kick up the backside, and some competition from a world class left half.
 
out of all the problems we have at the club, Giggs is definetely not one of them
 
I honestly dont see how Giggs' performances have deteriorated? He hasnt scored many in the last 18 months, but thats largely because he is no long the flying winger he was at 22. His play is more intelligent now. Just watch him. He drags defenders away from who has the ball, with good offtheball runs into space. He takes charge more than he used to, he tracks back more and he is still one of the best left wingers in the world.

Whats the problem? Because Giggs, Beckham, Veron, etc... dont score 15+ goals a season, they are useless?
 
i agree, except Veron can be useless quite often (apart from in Europe). Giggs is a midfielder not a striker, and he's actually a better player now then he was when he was that 22 year flyer, he's much more of a team player now

Who said Giggsy, becks, or Veron are useless? Who said anything about scoring 15 goals a season? All I'm saying is that his perfromances have diminished this season. Even he came out and said that he was having more fun playing for Wales than for Man Utd. In my mind this is showing in his performances. he needs to be motivated and what better way than to have some competition for his position. And let's be honest, on Sunday Giggs was shite! lack the passion of G Neville - lacked the creativity of Paul Scholes.
