Vidic admits Man Utd players "more comfortable" with Giggs

Departing Manchester United captain Nemanja Vidic admits the players felt "more comfortable" playing for Ryan Giggs than sacked manager David Moyes.

Giggs was in charge of only four games, winning his first 4-0.

Vidic told the Telegraph: "I am not saying that the David Moyes way was bad, but these players feel more comfortable playing a certain way of football.

"Ryan [Giggs] shares the same ideas as Sir Alex Ferguson and his was a more similar approach to the one we had with Sir Alex [Ferguson]. The players are more used to it and felt more comfortable with it.

"The best answer I can say is that he [Moyes] tried really hard, he was professional.

"He was really committed to the job and desperately wanted to do well. But unfortunately, it didn't happen and we are all sad."
