Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs hits back at Zlatan Ibrahimovic over Class of 92 criticism
Ryan Giggs has hit back at Zlatan Ibrahimovic over his criticism of the Class of 92 by insisting players with ‘over 2,000 games between us’ are entitled to have an opinion about Manchester United.Former Red Devils striker Ibrahimovic claimed in a newspaper interview that the ongoing loyalty of Giggs and other pundits like Gary Neville and Paul Scholes to Sir Alex Ferguson has fuelled criticism of Paul Pogba.Giggs responded to Ibrahimovic’s criticism3

Ibrahimovic told the Daily Mirror that the criticism of Pogba dated back to his decision to walk away from Old Trafford and sign for Juventus in 2012 when Ferguson was still United manager.“Only Nicky (Butt) is connected with the club now but when you play over 2,000 games between us, we are going to have an opinion,” said Wales manager Giggs, who made a record 963 appearances for United between 1991 and 2014.“Sometimes it’s positive, sometimes negative, but it doesn’t have an effect on results. “We are supporters. That’s what football is about, having different opinions.“But he (Ibrahimovic) obviously knows more about the club than us.”Giggs and his former Class of 92 team-mates – Neville, Scholes, Butt, David Beckham and Phil Neville – actually played a combined total of 3,450 games during the most successful period in United’s history.Ibrahimovic spent the 2016/17 season at Man United3
