Gotta believe that Ryan Gigg’s the King of his country on a football field – The Principality Of Wales – deserved to achieve things that he desperately wanted to accomplish but never could during his distinguished international career.
Now all we need on Saturday night vs Belgium is a perfect defensive performance and Bale and/or Ramsey to take one or more of the two or three clear cut chances they likely will be supplied by the likes of Joe Ledley and the particularly impressive Jonny Williams. In these players and the others like Joe Allen and Hal Robson-Kanu et al we have a good chance especially to create an early goal.
It is gonna be tough as Hazard looks sharp at a major Championship for once and De Bruyne is so under-rated. Hoping for a quick start so the boys can relax (and then dig in if they have to with the talisman Williams and the reliable wing-backs and then we must hit the Belgians on the break with the pace of Bale, Ramsey and co). Either way still so impressive to have reached the 1/4 finals for the first time in 58 years in a major Championships. Chris Coleman deserves all the plaudits coming his way no matter what the result aginst the Belgians. Wales have over-achieved and done it in the right way.
With Ryan seemingly leaving Man Utd and also not interested in a bit-part role with Jose, he could he be interested in at least a part time role with FA of Wales but reports seem to suggest Nottingham Forest could be where he goes.
Whereever he goes they are getting a legend and United are losing a class-act and we can only hope one day he comes back to his spiritual homes! – (FAW and Manchester United).
Giggs will almost certainly have to field some interesting questions tomorrow night when he is scheduled to appear as a pundit on the EURO2016 coverage of Poland vs Portugual on ITV in the UK.
But here’s for dreaming of one more night… #TogetherStronger #MUFC #WAL
STOP PRESS: It has been confirmed today that Ryan Giggs is terminating his 29-year stay association with Manchester United and has come to terms on a settlement with the only club he has known since boyhood – the Red-Devils of Old Trafford. A statement will be released by the club later next week but the early word has Giggs linked to Swansea City and Nottingham Forest amongst others.
