Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs has given some advice to winger Jadon Sancho.

Giggs, who spent his entire playing career as a Red Devil, advised the England attacker not to sulk at the club.

Sancho publicly criticized manager Erik ten Hag, who had stated the 23-year-old did not feature in the squad against Arsenal in the Premier League due to poor training displays.

It looks like Ten Hag has tried everything with Sancho, really," said Giggs to the Webby & O'Neill podcast.

It seems like it was the last throw of the dice 'I've tried everything, let's call him out publicly and see how he reacts'.

When he came to the club, I was actually a fan. I thought he could get better, he could improve, which he's not really done in the short space of time he's been at the club. For me, he always made the right choices in that final third, which is rare for a young winger.

But it just hasn't happened and he's sent him away to get fit, he's tried him in different positions and, for me, calling him out publicly is the last straw or the last thing to try to get the best out of Sancho.

The player can react and think 'Right, I'll show him, I'll show the manager what I'm capable of' or he can sulk and he probably won't get anywhere. So it's up to Sancho now.

I know a lot has been made of his training and for me, with my experience of United when I was a player, training was harder than the games.

So you have to have those performances in training, to get yourself on that pitch on a Saturday, so he's got to improve, I think that's the bottom line."
