Two clubs in the top half of the Premier League table will do battle today in a league match between Southampton and Manchester United. The first-division clash scheduled for 10 a.m. ET will be held at St. Mary's Stadium in Southampton and can be live streamed here free.
With speculation that today will be the end of Ryan Giggs' brief tenure as the interim coach for Manchester United, the 40-year-old has admitted the highs and lows of the position have enticed him to pursue it further (h/t to the Independent). "Sometimes you probably think I could do without it and other times it gives you so much pleasure," Giggs said.
"After the [Sunderland] game, you probably think you could do without it, but you probably learn more from defeat and not doing so well just like when you are a player," he added.
"I have enjoyed the whole experience. You get a satisfaction when everything goes right, although when you lose you are angry and disappointed."
"But it has definitely helped me prepare for what will come after my playing career."
Will Ryan Giggs' tenure end on the high note he desperately wants? Tell us @SportsWN
