Ryan Giggs responds to Zlatan Ibrahimovic after class promotion of 92 comments | Soccer

Ryan Giggs reacted to Zlatan Ibrahimovic's criticism of the 92 clbad by insisting that players with "more than 2,000 games between us" are entitled to have an opinion on Manchester United.

Ibrahimovic said in an interview to the newspaper that the loyalty of Giggs and other experts like Gary Neville and Paul Scholes to Sir Alex Ferguson had fueled criticism of Paul Pogba.

Ibrahimovic told the Daily Mirror that Pogba's criticism was that he was leaving Old Trafford and signing for Juventus in 2012, while Ferguson was still United's manager.

"Only Nicky [Butt] is tied to the club now, but when you play more than 2,000 games between us, we are going to have an opinion, "said Wales coach Giggs, who recorded a record 963 appearances for United between 1991 and 2014. " It is sometimes positive, sometimes negative. , but it does not affect the results.

"We are supporters. That's football, having different opinions. But he [Ibrahimovic] obviously knows more about the club than us.

Giggs and his former teammates in the 92-team squad – Neville, Scholes, Butt, David Beckham and Phil Neville – played a total of 3,450 games during the most successful period in United's history.

Ibrahimovic played 53 games with United after being signed by Jose Mourinho in the summer of 2016 before joining LA Galaxy in March 2018.

Giggs was also questioned about the possibility of Manchester City overtaking the American side of which he was a member in 1999. United wins the triple of the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup that year. but City is on course for an unprecedented quad.

Pep Guardiola's team has already won the Carabao Cup and is still looking for the glory of the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup.

"I have enough to worry about, please, do not talk about that." Giggs said. "It's a fantastic team, is not it? They already have one and United is leaving the FA Cup, that makes it a bit easier for them.

"They have a long way to go, but just like us in the treble, you need a lot of things for you. That little luck they had on the weekends. But they are a brilliant team. It will be interesting to see what they can achieve. "
