Giggs appointed Wales manager

New Wales manager Ryan Giggs has vowed to silence his doubters by winning games''.

Giggs was unveiled as Chris Coleman's successor at a Vale of Glamorgan press conference on Monday afternoon after agreeing a four-year deal to take in the 2020 European Championship and 2022 World Cup tournaments.

Asked how he would win the sceptics over, Giggs said:

I'll do that by winning games. As long as we're winning games those questions won't come up.

But I recognise the question, it's up to me to give it my all and I will.

I played 64 times for my country - 65 if you count the game against the Basques, when I scored the winner - and I will be same manager as I was a player.

I will bring professionalism and organisation and have a bit of fun along the way.

When I played for my country I give it my all. I loved playing for my country and now it's probably the proudest moment of my life to lead the Welsh nation into the Euros and the World Cup.

We've not qualified for a World Cup since 1958, I want to get this group of players there and to be part of it.''

Giggs spent four games in interim charge of United at the end of the 2013-14 season following the sacking of David Moyes.

But Wales represents his first permanent job in management after he missed out on the Swansea post in October 2016.
