Ryan Giggs: This is why Manchester United have under-performed this season

Giggs believes injuries have played a big part in stalling their progress this season.

“The consistency has been frustrating,” he told the Telegraph.

“We would go on a good run and then have a disappointing result. Obviously there have been a lot of injuries.
"A lot of them have been freak injuries – shoulders and Luke Shaw’s leg. A lot of knocks, the kind of things you can’t do anything about. And then when the squad gets small you are asking a lot of players to play games when maybe they could be rested or rotated.
“So it seems to have a domino effect when you do get a few injuries and we have just never got out of that. We are nine, 10 weeks left of the season and we are still in the FA Cup, still in the Europa League and still trying to get that top-four spot.

"We are still fighting and we still have something to play for."
United face Liverpool at Old Trafford tonight, looking to overturn a 2-0 first-leg deficit in the Europa League last-16 tie.
