Giggs: James was being streetwise... 11:12 - Oct 14 with 6030 viewsSwanjaxs

According to Giggs Daniel James was being "streetwise" when appearing to be knocked unconscious last night.
If true absolutely disgraceful behaviour. To feign a head injury for whatever reason is the lowest of the low on a football pitch.
Perhaps a sad reflection on how Giggs wants his players to act I suppose

Disappointing from James.
There was serious concern for him at the time , as he lay motionless on the pitch for, which seemed, a couple of minutes. The replay showed that the contact was nowhere near his head and he was soon up and running about again.
He is a young player with an outstanding future in the game but this kind of incident will do him no good.

He looked like he hardly braced himself before landing. No way he faked that. He may have taken longer than he needed to get up and get off the pitch. He’s certainly got a dive in him, but I’m not having he pretended to be unconscious.

And if he did, why is Giggs praising it?

Giggs has come out and said James used his "nous" and was being "streetwise".

He did indeed give the impression he had been knocked clean out, and of course if he had he would have been taken off straight away and not have reappeared.

So yes it appears James was feigning being knocked unconscious.

Because Giggs is a scum-bag and should never be in charge of the national team.

Never appeared in friendlies.

If he was unconscious, he'd be in concussion protocol and not allowed back on the pitch.

So he was either faking or the Welsh medical staff were fvcking incompetent.

Once in a while it would be nice if people appraised themselves of the evidence before expressing an opinion. James was definitely out cold, perhaps only for a few second, although I suspect longer. He was caught on the side of the head by Vida's knee (who should have seen red) and the way James' arms flopped lifelessly by his side was not something he could have feigned.

The reason Giggs is coming out with this "acting" nonsense is because it comes across marginally less bad ethically for a player to play-act than for a manager not to put the health of his player first.

Having said the above, this sort of incident illustrates how football is, yet again, behind rugby. In a situation like this the player should be subject to a time-limited (10 minutes or so) substitution to enable a proper assessment of the fitness of a player to continue. Without this, unscrupulous managers will continue to gamble on their player's health if they think the team will be disadvantaged - as Wales would have been had James been subbed last night.

Did you see the Wales/Fiji game? Compared to almost every tackle in that game , and yes I know it’s a different sport, the Croat was tickling Dan under the armpit.

Laying there like a sniper had got him then sprinting around seconds later he’s made a tvvat of his self. It was embarrassing to watch and I hope he’s embarrassed this morning. He ought to be.

An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

If James had been knocked out, even for a couple of seconds, he would not have been allowed to continue, end of 👍

Giggs didn’t want that because he’d probably miss a few Man U games if he admitted concussion. He’s their best player mun.

Giggs mentioned some tests they did on James at half time. I wonder what they were about?

All the same, if you fall from an aerial collision, you brace yourself for the landing. It’s impossible not to. I’ll have to watch it again, but it looked to me like he landed in a heap.

I’ve no doubt he fannied around and made a meal of it a lot longer than he needed to, it’s not like we haven’t seen that from him before.

He is desperate to play against Liverpool though. As is his club and all their supporters of which Giggs is one. They wouldn’t be that stupid though, surely?

I couldn’t see that well from the other side up in the red seats but the reaction of the Croatian players was such that they clearly feared a serious situation.
