Wales coach Ryan Giggs insists he won't be afraid to play the kids.

Giggs points to his short time in charge of Manchester United as proof he's willing to go with youth.

Asked if he had any ­reservations about playing kids, Giggs said: “No. That is what I had, and even in my four games at United I gave Tom Lawrence his debut and James Wilson. I am not afraid to do that. I see it in training and then I want to see if they can do it on the pitch.

“It has never been a problem for me giving young players a chance.

"Look at Marcus ­Rashford, I have seen him ­develop and he got a chance when someone got ­injured in the warm up.

“When I got my chance it was Lee Sharpe who got injured. I couldn't see a way into the first team. Sharpey had won PFA young player of the year and he was playing for England. I was thinking he is in my position.

“You get a bit of 'Unlucky for Sharpey, lucky for me', but you take that chance.

“That is up to the young player – you give them a chance and they have to take it. The easy bit is getting in the team, the hard bit is staying in it."
