(GSM) – Ryan Giggs claims little has changed at Manchester United since Cristiano Ronaldo’s exit in the summer. Giggs knows United’s strenght lies in their team unity. “We have never been a one-man team and that’s why we don’t miss him at all.”
Ronaldo made a record move to Real Madrid this summer and his absence was expected to leave a gaping hole in United’s attacking arsenal, with a regular source of goals having been offloaded. However, the Red Devils have fared admirably and veteran midfielder Giggs believes Sir Alex Ferguson’s side are as fearsome as ever – regardless of the changes in personnel.
“Cristiano is one of the best players in the world but I have to be honest and say I haven’t noticed much of a difference since he left,” Giggs said in English paper The People.
In Manchester, nobody worried about Ronaldo’s transfer to Ronaldo. “We all knew Cristiano wanted to play for Madrid and when he got the chance he took it.
“He wasn’t a Manc and we knew one day he would leave, but there are no hard feelings – why should there be?
“He is one of the best I have ever played with and a really nice lad, but we knew Madrid was where he wanted to be one day and he got his wish, so good luck to him.”
