The former Welsh national team star and the current Manchester United winger has admitted that he is saddened to see http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Darren-Fletcher-c10361 out of action for both club as well as the Great Britain football team at the 2012 Olympics as
he surely would’ve been part of the Olympic team squad if he had been fit.
Fletcher’s football career has been thrown into uncertainty due to his chronic bowel condition. The Scotsman has been forced into taking time off from full-time football to look after his health. Fletcher’s injury concerns were
made public at the beginning of last season by Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson as the midfielder was suffering from weight loss and fatigue levels beyond the fitness staff’s control.
On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ryan-Giggs-c31985 is set to captain the Great Britain Olympic team as far as their football contingent is concerned as he is determined to capture gold for the British Isles. Stuart Pearce, the Team Great Britain manager
has picked a dependable squad despite the fact that he has come under criticism for not including http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Beckham-c10432 in the final shortlist.
Giggs said, "Fletch is concentrating on trying to get fit for United so I don't think he would have been thinking too much about missing out on this. Hopefully he will just start training and playing again because he is a talent
and a really important player for both United and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Scotland-c756.”
He added, "But I'm sure if he had been playing regularly then Stuart would have had a decision to make because he definitely would have been in the reckoning. I don't like to prioritise medals because every single one means something
special. To win a gold medal would be special."
Hopefully Team Great Britain will be able to make a mark considering that the Olympics are indeed taking place on their home turf which gives them a special advantage over other favourites such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brazil-c2858 as well
as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841.
