Giggs compared to Guardiola by keeper

Manchester United goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard has joined Wayne Rooney in backing Ryan Giggs to be the next permanent manager. Rooney spoke in favour of the 40-year-old following Saturday's 4-0 win over Norwich, but Louis van Gaal remains favourite to succeed David Moyes. Lindegaard has compared Giggs to Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola. "It might sound pretty rash and naive, but, in my opinion, we are dealing with a new Guardiola," he wrote in a blog.
