United legends Giggs and Ferdinand express conviction: City star is destined for Man Utd due to his relentless desire
Ryan Giggs and Rio Ferdinand recently spoke about Manchester City's current star player who, in their eyes, should have been a Manchester United player. This revealing conversation aired on the Rio Ferdinand Presents podcast, hosted by Qatar Airways.
The two Red Devils legends shared their thoughts on a variety of topics, including the form of Alejandro Garnacho, top midfielders in the Premier League, and ways Giggs would improve Manchester United. They reminisced about their careers, discussing Giggs' stint as interim boss of United, becoming Wales manager, and his disappointment at not being given the chance to be the permanent manager.
Deep in conversation about United's history, they spoke about some past stars, including Angel Di Maria. Di Maria failed to live up to expectations during his year-long tenure at United, leading to discussion about what it takes to be a Red Devils player. Giggs suggested a current opponent player who has the skills to wear the iconic United jersey.
Intriguingly, the former United players pointed towards Jude Bellingham as the ideal player who "100%" should have been a Manchester United player - not a Manchester City star. Although they didn't identify the specific player in the original conversation, their comments are widely believed to be about Bellingham, who is currently thriving at Borussia Dortmund and attracting interest from numerous top clubs, including City.
Giggs also discussed the current United winger, Alejandro Garnacho. The United great praised Garnacho for his desire to take risks but questioned the targets he has "in front of him." Giggs highlighted the importance of having options, like he had with Teddy Sheringham, Eric Cantona, Dwight York, and Andy Cole, to make the most of his chances in the attack.
