Thought China would be tougher to break down with Lippi in charge. Pleased for Giggs, even though it's only China it will keep the pitchforks in the cupboard for now.
Giggs appointed new Wales manager
- Thread starter PoTMS
- Start date
Is anyone excited?
There are just 2 posts on the game both saying the scores.
They gave it to GIGGSY and you wouldn't BELIEVE what happened!!!!!!!
Giggs and Wales DESTROY Country with Largest Population on Earth
Not watching the match but this is probably the best match ever, what a manager.
Glory glory Wayuls united as thesheep dragons go marching on on on.

Is it time to sack Jose and give it to Giggsy yet?
I think that would be a little bit of a knee-jerk decision. Wait til after the game at least.
A goal every 10 minutes against possibly the greatest International team on the biggest stage!! Come on Giggs!
Welsh dragons SLAY inferior Chinese dragons.
ABGoggs seething.
England would probably sneak a goal in the 85th minute to beat China 1-0.
I was just about to suggest we give Giggsy the Prime Minister's job till the end of the season, then you went and killed the vibe.
*tut*
Every nation in the world cup are glad Wales didn't make it!!!
THEY. ARE. SCARED
THEY. ARE. SCARED
This is what happens when you give it to Giggsy!
He nails it?
6-0 now.
Better result that 1-7 Brazil-Germany match. I think so.

To be fair to China they've probably defended as good as Brazil did.
Future United manager.
Anything but world cup win would be disappointment
No stopping him after this.
From Wales to United to world leader inside of a decade.

Giggs will tear Yu apart again
Can't wait for the commemorative DVD!
Excellent
Mao Zedong, Qin Shi Huang, Chiang Kai-shek, Confucius, Laozi, Sun Tzu, Yip Man ... Giggsy has beaten them all, he has beaten them all! Xi Jinping, can you hear me? Xi Jinping ... your boys took a hell of a beating! Your boys took a hell of a beating!
I know China is still 'catching on' to football, but really, you'd have thought a country with a population of 1.3bn people would be able to put together a coaching team and 11 players who could put up a better fight than this.
In perspective, China's population is 330 times bigger than Wales's. Get in Giggseh.

We're going to win the World Cup and I'm not sure what shellfish have to do with anything.
"Sixy Giggsy puts China to the sword of the Welsh Dragon"
Not for a while you aren't. Do you have good players coming through?
Just realised he’s got Albert Stuivenberg as an assistant.
So he’s not just surrounded himself with his mates, but brought in experienced people who will challenge him.
Good to see.

Ampadu and Woodburn. Their youth sides are arguably their best ever. Their fortunes will improve along with England's in that regard due to a lot of their players being in English academies and the Welsh FA having a policy of nabbing English players with Welsh ancestry.
Good start for Giggs, albeit against poor opposition. Glad to see he didn't tinker around and stuck with the same formation which has worked well for us under Coleman. Looking forward to see how we go against either the Czechs or Uruguay in the final.
With regards to the young players coming through, I'd add in Wilson as well. He's just got something about him. Been the best player in the under 23's league for the last year and a half and has done well on loan at Hull so far since the New Year.

Just don't think he's management material tbh. Wish him well though.
Mourinho out, Giggs in.
Being brutally honest:
You are a rookie manager, you need to gain experience, to test your training methods, your scientific and empiric knowledge about the sport, etc.
You should start managing a club where you will haveto create daily based training schedules and prepare for matches every week.
But no: instead he's starting at NT where he will have months without anything to do unless watching some games to keep an eye on players performance. This sounds as a poor career management IMHO

Not a bad start to your international career as a manager, putting six past a side managed by Marcello Lippi. I wish him well.
Absolutely loved watching Giggs management. Glad to see all the pro-Jose method fans already making little jokes & gags. 
Some fans had been saying the squad was built for 352 by LVG to be taken over by Giggs; which was shown under LVG's first season yet more applicable with the players that were left behind in his 2nd season.
Valencia-Smalling-Blind-Rojo-Young
CDM
CM
Lingard
Rashford - Martial
And then Giggs goes out an puts a 352 against China and wings 6-0. Could not care less about the opposition; fact is 352 was the formation he chose, a formation that is not defensive as a lot of fans talk about; a plyaer like Bale upfront, wing backs applying the width to the team.
Players like Pogba, Rashford, Lingard, Martial, hell even Blind & therefore smalling, Wingbacks etc will only ever come good under a modern day manager that is Gigggs who plays the 352 at United.
Counting down the days until Jose goes so this guy comes in due to being our only option - who just 'happens to pick 352' unleashing all these players that are constricted under different formations of the 1990's
.
Until then, we can all just continue to idolise a strict manager who has a gameplan that he might as well have tattooed as it does not change for anybody or any club.

Can't stop laughing at the posts here. Most funny thread here for these last few gloomy days.
Most funny thread here for these last few gloomy days. Giggs has to discipline his players. A 2-1 loss would've been more than acceptable for Wales history.
Or he just carried on using what Coleman was?Absolutely loved watching Giggs management. Glad to see all the pro-Jose method fans already making little jokes & gags.

Mark Hughes started the same way
