Man Utd veteran Giggs enjoyed central role in Chelsea win

Manchester United veteran Ryan Giggs enjoyed his central role in their Champions League victory over Chelsea.

Giggs shone despite being repurposed as a central midfielder alongside the similarly imperious Michael Carrick.

"I enjoy it," he told Sky Sports. "I've got Carras (Carrick) next to me, who was fantastic in the two games and it makes it easier when you've got the likes of Ji and Nani and Antonio around you, so I enjoyed it in there.

"I think it's easier in there than on the wing. On the wing you need to get up and down, in midfield you can just pick your moments, really. I enjoy it in there."
