Giggs Still Astounds

David Moyes continues to be amazed by Ryan Giggs' evergreen qualities after the midfielder breezed through the entire game in Bayer Leverkusen and claimed an assist for the 88th-minute goal by Nani.

Giggs may turn 40 on Friday but there are no signs of age beginning to catch up with him. On the contrary, his manager believes there is an argument that the United legend is actually improving.

Despite coming on at the weekend in Cardiff, the Welshman was selected from the start in Germany and performed superbly alongside Phil Jones in the middle of the park.

"People will always question Ryan’s age but you can’t question him as a footballer," insisted Moyes. "He’s fantastic. I thought he did brilliantly tonight, in everything he did. He didn’t look fatigued, he’s a terrific all-round player.

"He is unbelievable. You could even say he is getting better. His vision and pass for the last goal for Nani was superb. And his fitness is also incredible. I am lucky to be working with him.

"The situation with Ryan is he keeps playing and he will tell us when he's had enough or his time is up. He keeps training and playing and his performances have been great."
