The former Welsh national team winger is looking to play alongside David Beckham for the Great Britain Olympic football team as London gets ready to host the 2012 Olympics...
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-Beckham-c10432 for the Great Britain football team which is set to play in the 2012 London Olympics. Giggs who was central to Manchester United’s English
Premier League campaign last season saw them finish second to Manchester City in the title race albeit level on points.
Both Giggs and Beckham started their careers at Old Trafford but Beckham left the Premier League giants to join Real Madrid in 2003. Nonetheless, Manchester United’s fans and Giggs himself has fond memories of his times with Beckham
at United where both the winger combined to a deadly effect.
Beckham won the 1999 treble with the Red Devils in a campaign where Giggs scored a wonderful goal against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 in the F.A Cup semi-finals. On the other hand it was David Beckham who provided two assists for two late second half
goals against Bayern Munich for Manchester United in the 1999 UEFA Champions League final at Nou Camp.
Giggs stated, "I don't think it'll be like 20 years ago when we were both up and down! We might be able to get up but we won't be able to get back down again. Becks is obviously a friend and he's a great player and still remains
that so if that was to be it'd be great. Obviously I started my playing career with Becks playing the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/U-17-Youth-team-c40787."
He added, "I've put myself forward to be involved with the Olympics. Whether I get picked we'll have to wait and see. Obviously everybody is excited about it, about the Olympics coming to London and coming to different parts of
Britain so yeah I'll have to wait and see.”
Both Giggs and Beckham will be fantastic additions to the Great Britain football team squad and they have a pretty good chance of winning the gold medal given that they have the home support on their side. It is worth noting that
Ryan Giggs is the only senior Manchester United player released by Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson to play at the Olympic games over the summer.
