Giggs Expects Too

"We have brought in players who have experience in Europe and hopefully, the younger lads can learn from their experience in Europe last year.

"I remember when I was a young lad, I learned something new from every game I played in Europe, especially away from home.

"Each game you play you get better and have more confidence. Hopefully that will be the case for the team this year.

"If we play to our best ability, we should get out of the group quite comfortably," he said.

"It is a tough group because they are all good teams and the away games will all be particularly hard.

"Hopefully we will get off to a good start. If we do that, we will be confident about going through."

About Nani returning to Lisbon:

"Nani has probably had to play more often than he would have expected but he has adapted really well.

"He gets on with everyone and, on the field, he has fitted in from day one. Hopefully he can carry on that good form."
