After Ryan Giggs had a go at management at the end of last season, replacing David Moyes for the remaining four matches, many called for the Welshman to be the next Manchester United manager.
In the end Louis van Gaal was appointed as the full-time manager after Giggs had been caretaker manager at the end of United's abysmal campaign last year. But the legendary winger did enough in his four matches and had the emotional extra to get the backing of the fans of the Old Trafford club whilst rumours circulated about who would be in charge.
The former winger, who is now Van Gaal's assistant at United, is still backed to be future manager of the club. His former teammate and BT pundit Paul Scholes believes that Giggs could leave Old Trafford before that day though; "There’s no doubt, he had that little taste of it for the last three weeks of last year and he definitely wants to be a manager. You can see that. Over the next two or three years, will he have the patience to be a number two for that long? I’m not sure he will.”
