Welshman Ryan Giggs, the Manchester United legend, has offered some advice to Red Devils manager Michael Carrick regarding signing a new midfielder during the upcoming summer transfer window.<\/p>\n
Manchester United need to sign new midfielders, particularly following the announcement that Brazilian Casemiro will be leaving Old Trafford at the end of the current season.<\/p>\n
Giggs believes that Crystal Palace\u2019s Adam Warton, valued at \u00a370 million, should be one of United\u2019s top priorities in the summer transfer window, but he insists that his former club must sign midfielders, with Nottingham Forest\u2019s Elliot Anderson considered a leading candidate.<\/p>\n

They all have Premier League experience, so I wouldn\u2019t mind that.\u201d<\/p>\n The Manchester United legend continued: \u201cI\u2019m a fan of Anderson too; he\u2019s a strong player. He plays every game, and I can see scenarios similar to Warton and Mino, or Anderson and Warton. All these scenarios are possible; it depends on the circumstances. British players are very expensive and it depends on what we can spend. But we need players in midfield.\u201d<\/p>\n Giggs also urged the Manchester United board to keep Carrick on as manager and not to consider alternatives such as Luis Enrique, Julian Nagelsmann or Oliver Glasner.<\/p>\n He continued: \u201cThe hardest thing in the world for a manager is to win matches, and he\u2019s doing that; we\u2019ve only lost one game.\u201d<\/p>\n He concluded by saying: “We\u2019re looking up now rather than down \u2013 can we catch Manchester City?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Welshman Ryan Giggs, the Manchester United legend, has offered some advice to Red Devils manager Michael Carrick regarding…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":874630,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[8813],"tags":[213554,748,213965,393,4884,163050,2465,98,248052,2357,16,15],"class_list":["post-874629","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-manchester","tag-a-wharton","tag-britain","tag-e-anderson","tag-england","tag-great-britain","tag-m-carrick","tag-manchester","tag-manchester-united","tag-r-giggs","tag-transfers","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116354643791266417","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/874629","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=874629"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/874629\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/874630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=874629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=874629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=874629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
