Ryan Giggs sensationally threw Daniel James under the bus by revealing that the youngster was merely play acting and was not seriously injured.

“Daniel James went down and stayed down with a bit of acting. “Giggs said.

“But the medical staff went over, he was compos mentis and we did all the checks at half-time and he was fine.”

Daniel James also told sky sports that he was fine:

 “[I’m] fine. He caught me in the head.

“I didn’t get knocked out.”

It appears that Giggs has not understood that his claims have made James an easy target for accusations of cheating. It does not help that James has already received two yellow cards in the Premier league for diving.

It’s also possible that Giggs risked James’ reputation in order to save his own, considering the word doing the round about Giggs playing a footballer who had just been knocked out with a concussion in front of the whole world.
