Swansea Keen On Luring Ryan Giggs To The Liberty Stadium

Moyes is without a club after he was sacked as manager of Spanish side Real Sociedad last month. Raheem Sterling will come into the fixture full of confidence after his two goals helped City to a 4-2 win over Borussia Monchengladbach in midweek.

It is also believed that Giggs would implement a positive exciting brand of football that Swansea chairman Jenkins feels would suit the club.

“The quality is there”, their caretaker manager, Alan Curtis, said, and any prospective applicant for the vacant position in south Wales could only have formed the same conclusion.

Bafetimbi Gomis drew Swans level only for Kelechi Iheanacho’s injury-time deflection to deny them a draw. Maybe he plays different games, one better and another not so good, but I think the most important thing is to work every day with important players like David (Silva), Kun (Sergio Aguero) and Yaya (Toure).

The value in backing the hosts as 1/3 favourites is enhanced when one accounts for the fact that City have won eight and drawn one of their last 12 against the Swans, winning the sides’ last four meetings in a row.

Swansea had troubled City in the second half with Gylfi Sigurdsson particularly impressive, forcing saves from Joe Hart and having an effort disallowed after a foul by Gomis.

The Welshman has been with United for nearly 30 years now and is the club’s all time appearance holder as well as its most decorated player.

Manuel Pellegrini has hit back at Manchester City’s critics, insisting his side have been the best in the Premier League this season.

“I thought we deserved something out of the game”. So many people had written us off before the game, but we wanted the three points.

Martinez said: “Phil had very good news from the specialist yesterday and we are well on track – probably ahead of what we expected”.

‘If that takes longer then so be it, we will carry on, but I hope thinks are sorted straight away. For Wilfried Bony, he faces up to the club that he made a name for himself at and will look to repeat his goal-scoring performance of their last encounter.

“Some may say it is too late because Garry has already gone but we also have a massive duty to the club and supporters”.
