Ex-Man Utd teammate urges Giggs to walk: You've been overlooked three times now

Robbie Savage says former Manchester United teammate Ryan Giggs should leave.

Savage played with Giggs in United's youth team.

He told the Daily Star: "I feel sorry for Giggsy. I believe when Fergie went they should have been brave and given him the job instead of Moyes and then they should have given it to him when Van Gaal got it.

"So now he's been overlooked again, that's three times now. I think on one of those occasions he should have got it. He knows Manchester United off by heart.

"Look at Pep Guardiola at Barca, Zinedine Zidane at Real Madrid. I've got sympathy with Giggsy. I would have liked to have seen them give it to him.

"If I was Giggsy now I would look to start my career as a manager somewhere else.

"If it's lower down fine, as low down as he wants to manage, but don't forget he's got terrific experience and what he's won as a player is second to none."
