Man Utd favourite Giggs enjoyed being back on left against Inter

Manchester United midfielder Ryan Giggs enjoyed himself against Inter Milan on Wednesday.

Giggs returned to his old stamping ground of the left wing against Inter, a role he felt was behind him, but one he is ready to revive as and when United manager Sir Alex Ferguson requires.

"I never thought I'd be on the wing again," joked the Welshman.

"But the manager set me up on the left, and no matter where you play, you want to be involved in the sort of games like against Inter.

"With Patrice (Evra) behind me, he is an attacking full-back who helps me out.

"I obviously don't play like I did 10 years ago, but Pat helps me in that respect.

"It's something I can occasionally go back to. But then I don't mind playing, as long as I'm playing.

"I prefer positions in midfield and just off the front, but I can use my experience on the left, so I can definitely play there."
