With twelve titles of the Premier League and two of the UEFA Champions League to his backs, Ryan Giggs knows perfectly what lack makes to arrive at highest. The untiring midfield player helped the Manchester United FC to obtain his second Glass of Europe in 1999, and wrote down the decisive launching of penalti that gave the title to the United in the end of 2008 before Chelsea FC.
The following season did not have so many good memories for the veteran Welsh player, since the United fell in another end before a FC Barcelona that according to many experts has improved much since then. But although Giggs respects the ability of the champion of Spanish Liga, thinks that the Manchester has learned the lesson from that defeat by 2-0.
" Barcelona has that experience and confidence that it gives you to gain the trophy. Many of their players overcame the World-wide one recently, so they have much experience, form an equipment of world-wide class. But we have learned of that end and have improved like equipment. The sets are not very different from those of two years ago, both we are good equipment, the best ones of each country ", said to UEFA.com.
He will be complicated to stop players of the stature of Lionel Messi, Xavi Hernandez and Andrés Iniesta or to try that the Manchester imposes its game to the one of the set of Josep Guardiola but Giggs insists on which the United will leave to the attack Saturday. " We must accept that it is an equipment with much talent and try to stop its players key. Once assumed that we must play as we know, to show authority in the field. The Manchester United practices a very offensive soccer and marks many goals and that is not going to change ", explained Giggs.
If the United already were strong in 2009, many experts think that now it is still better. Others nevertheless consider that the equipment of Guardiola is the best one of all the times, something that does not share Giggs: " you never can say that. The clubs are always supeditados to the successes, year after year. They are good but we also are it. We will face a great equipment, we are ready and try to gain the Champions League ".
To dispute the end in Wembley will be an additional aid for the United and also for a Giggs that has played there in numerous occasions in its 21 seasons with the network devils and the Welshman thinks that the new stage is no lost nothing of brightness. " You can continue feeling history in the new Wembley. Obvious he is different but it continues being Wembley, probably the most famous stage of the world. It is the house of soccer and is a great field where I hope that we gain the Champions League ", pointed Giggs.
When Giggs arrived at the club, the only previous success of the United in the most prestigious competition of clubs dated from obtained year 1968 in the field of the north of London. Giggs is too modest as to say it but the group of 2011 already has eclipsado to its predecessors of yesterday. Now, one fourth Glass of Europe would be the perfect legacy for the coming generations. " It is a special event since the first time that we gained it was in Wembley. You only must watch those equipment to find great players and at legend, like Sir Bobby Charlton, who still is in the club ", it pointed the end.
" It is what differentiates this club, all its history and the great players who have played here in addition to the form which we must to play soccer. I believe that it is the club of greater soccer of the world. I hope that we pruned to take advantage of our history and to increase that legacy. I would like that within 30 or 40 years people speak of this equipment, like she is spoken now on the equipment of the 68, like a great equipment ", finalized Giggs.
