Giggs hopes for home comfort

Date published: 13 April 2012


RYAN Giggs is targeting maximum points from back–to–back home games to stabilise Manchester United's Premier League title challenge ahead of the trip to Manchester City later this month.

United suffered their first defeat since the beginning of January when they lost 1–0 at Wigan on Wednesday night, allowing City to cut their lead to five points with five games left.

Giggs has made it clear he wants Aston Villa this Sunday and Everton the following week to be disposed of with the minimum of fuss.

"It is important that we get six points from the next two games," Giggs said. "We are at Old Trafford, we are at home.”

City's top scorer Sergio Aguero has reiterated his commitment to the club despite being linked with Real Madrid.

Aguero said: "The truth is that I am happy here, happy with my fellow players and the rest of the staff.

“The only thing I have to do is enjoy playing football.”

Aguero is again likely to be partnered by countryman Carlos Tevez for the trip to Norwich tomorrow.
