Woodward would ask Giggs to take over

The Dutchman’s grip on the United hot-seat took a pounding after losing 2-1 to FC Midtjylland in Denmark on Wednesday night and now appears beyond the point of no return.And with speculation surrounding José Mourinho’s next step in his career, which could see him taking up the reigns from Van Gaal, the United hierachy are also considering giving Giggs the role of caretaker once again, according to theMail.The Welshman, 42, took over from David Moyes after the Scotsman’s sacking in 2014, following a poor run of results for theOld Trafford side.Giggs managed to win two of the four games, draw once and lose on one occasion, during his brief spell in charge of United towards the end of the 2013/14 Premier League campaign.Van Gaal has struggled with the huge demand of improving a United side failing to convince for the majority of the season, but he hasn’t enjoyed much luck with a growing injury list.Wayne Rooney has now been ruled out for up to two months, which will see him miss at least 10 games, having missed the trip to Denmark earlier in the week.Other absentees include first-choice goalkeeper David de Gea, who was injured whilst warming up for the Europa League clash, right-back Matteo Darmian courtesy of a dislocated shoulder as well as BastianSchweinsteiger, Ashley Young and Luke Shaw.Fortunately though, David De Gea, Phil Jones, Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, Adnan Januzaj, Guillermo Varela are set forreturns with the next week.
