Man Utd winger Nani: Giggs influence huge for me

Nani says he's lifted his game to a new level thanks to the influence of senior Manchester United teammates.

The 23-year-old credits his transformation into a real United player to the veterans who trail-blazed the path before him.

Nani said: "I've learned a lot, particularly from the older players - Giggsy, Scholes and Rio.

"Those players teach you a lot. The important thing to understand is you give what is best for the team. Now I understand what I need to do and when the right moment is to do it.

"I listened to the boss and players like Giggsy, he gives me advice all the time.

"Now I understand the game a lot more. If I'm doing well it's because I'm working hard, I owe both the manager and Giggsy a lot."
