Giggs keen to make United smile

Ryan Giggs has vowed to put a smile back on the faces of Manchester United fans.

Giggs was appointed interim player-manager on Tuesday following the sacking of David Moyes.

The Welshman was in a good mood as he conducted his first press conference, even joking that he had given himself a new five-year contract.

The midfielder said the season under Moyes had been "frustrating" and he wants to restore some pride in his four games in charge.

"It's a proud moment for me to manage Manchester United and it's one I will enjoy," said Giggs, who will take his place in the dugout for the first time against Norwich on Saturday.

"I want to bring back some smiles on the faces of the fans.

"I can't wait for the game, the players are excited too.

"I know the stadium will be bouncing."
