Ryan Giggs has jokingly suggested that Zlatan Ibrahimovic “knows more about Manchester United than us”, as he responded to the former Manchester United striker’s claim that the Class of 92 are “always complaining and criticising” the club.
Gary Neville and Paul Scholes, precisely, were loud critics of the team under Jose Mourinho.
Neville even blasted the United hierarchy before Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s arrival as caretaker manager, after Jose’s sacking in December.
Giggs said, “Only Nicky [Butt] is connected with the club now, but when you play over 2000 games [3,450 in total] between us, we are going to have an opinion,”
“Sometimes it’s positive, sometimes negative, but it doesn’t have an effect on results. We are supporters. That’s what football is about, having different opinions. But he [Ibrahimovic] obviously knows more about the club than us.”
“I’ve got enough to worry about, please don’t bring that up!” Giggs, United’s record appearance holder with 963, added. “They’re a fantastic team, aren’t they?
“They’ve already got one and United going out of the FA Cup makes that a little bit easier for them. They’ve got a long way to go, but just like us in the Treble, you need a lot of things to go for you, that bit of luck, which they had at the weekend.
“But they are a brilliant team. It will be interesting to see what they can achieve.”
