29 years. It's over.Ryan Giggs has agreed a settlement package to leave MUFC

From an outsiders standpoint, that's (kinda') relative it would appear to the Memphis accusation that he has a bad attitude and doesn't work hard enough/ dedicate himself enough to his craft.

It's become more and more apparent that Giggs was manoeuvring himself in a power play coup to be in a position to take over from Van Gaal. And as such I wouldn't believe most any of anything he was coming out with last year. Not least when he was slating a big money Van Gaal signing on his attitude and work ethic.

Does Memphis have problems in that area? Dunno'. Not a Utd fan and I aren't invested anywhere as much as someone who is to pass judgement. But I would be taking anything Giggs had to say on him with a pinch of salt.

For as great a player as he was, he's also turned into one of the most destructive behind the scenes issues at Utd who most certainly needed to go.

Legendary player, absolute shithouse of a man, I have zero trust in him.

When it comes to work ethic, I'll take the word from United old guard over anybody. Keane, Neville, Scholes, GIggs, every time I hear them talk, I can see how come they've dominated so long. They all have zero patience for all the modern celebrity football bullshit. You're expected to work hard, be a team player and stay out of the media, or they will have your head on the pike. These guys are hardcore professionals, and imagine they're much softer in their public personas than how they acted towards people in the club who stepped out of line.

Giggs is a massive ***** obviously and I'm not surprised Mourinho with his trust issues wants him gone. But when it comes to work ethic, Giggs is the pope, and you pay attention to what the pope has to say.

I mean't 4 games. Klopp has just won twice. Not what i would call a prolific record

If it were 4 outta 4, i'd be concerned

5 games. Klopps won 3, drawn 1. Scoring 11- Mourinho's sides 7. Jose's only win was the second leg of the 2013 Champions League semi. 2-0. (Not 3.). But as Madrid had been walloped 4-1 in Dortmund the first leg it wasn't enough.

As I mentioned and bring up every time the two clubs play.

Just correcting him on his 'misinformed' stats was all. (6).

Klopp is not even in the same league as Mourinho or Pep. Let there be no doubt.

Fairer to say not yet. He's capable of it. Liverpool's success will depend on him entering into that league. Conte will need to take nistaional team spirit to Chelsea. He was guilty of downplaying things too much at Juventus, can't do that this time.
