An Epic Start for Ryan Giggs

#END OF AN ERROR

Once, a famous tweet by President Uhuru Kenyatta in his twitter handle jokingly teased, “who am I to sack Ole lemku if Man United has not sacked David Moyes?” now I do not know the import of Moyes’ sacking and Ole Lenku prospects. Perhaps, the security CS needs to consult the fortune-tellers. Thankfully they no longer get the sack over 1pm news bulletin; but that is a story for another day.

So this past week, less than 360 minutes from the end of the season, a trophy less season and what’s more, a season Manchester United will finish with the lowest premier league points tally ever, David Moyes was sacked just after one season as manager.

All eyes this past weekend turned to the Old Trafford dug-out as Man-U began lie after David Moyes. Ryan Giggs assisted by three fellow members of united famed “class of 92”; took temporary charge of the troubled giants and led them to beat struggling Norwich 4-0.

At the Old Trafford, banners read boldly, “in Giggs we trust” as he made his way in a suit to seat at the former coach Ferguson’s seat at the dugout. He had time to smile and sign autographs for fans close to the dug-out. The 40-year old, surrounded by other gilded graduates of United’s youth academy, with Nicky Butt, Phil Neville and Paul Scholes, all helping their old colleague, those familiar faces inspired a win over Norwich and put smiles back on many faces.

With united starting the post Moyes ear, eyes turned to Anfield where Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho who carried out his threat to field a weakened team that beat the Reds 2-0. Liverpool’s red-hot from after reeling off 11 successive league wins, came to an abrupt end on Sunday.

But good news is that Luis Suarez, scorer of 30 league goals this season, after the defeat was declared the Season’s Player of the year.

With Liverpool’s defeat, now eyes turn to Manchester City and Chelsea who still remain favorites in the title race!
