Manchester United’s living legend, Ryan Giggs is probably the most popular figure in United tour to America.

After arrived at Kansas City, he took a few minutes in front of the camera to discuss the Red Devils American tour, expectations of playing in KC and trying to sneak in some BBQ.

Read and you will realize that Manchester United nutritionist’s rule over the players’ diets were quite strict.

On playing in Kansas City:

“We’re all looking forward to it, looking to seeing what Kansas City is like as a city, what the teams going to be like and what the games going to be like, so you know, we’re all looking forward to it.”

“By then, it will be our third or fourth game, so we should be getting much fitness and we should be performing towards our best, so hopefully a good game, lots of goals and lots of enjoyment and just leave Kansas City with a lot of good memories for the fans.”

On American soccer and Major League Soccer:

“I think I probably took a lot more interest when David Beckham came over, because obviously I played with him, he’s a friend, so I took an interest on how football’s gone over here. Judging by the USA’s performance in the World Cup, football is healthier and very strong because they’ve got a lot of quality, both as individuals and as a team. Obviously it’s growing all the time and hopefully it will be successful. I’m sure it will because the fans that come to our games are fanatical and they know their stuff and the facilities are second-to-none as well.

On KC’s famous BBQ:

“I think our nutritionists and our dietitian probably is a bit worried about us coming to the USA, because the food is just unbelievable. Hopefully we can sneak under the radar and have a few barbeques.”

In another session, he has been interviewed by the official MLS website (mlssoccer.com) about Philadelphia, 2010 AT&T MLS All-Star Game on July 28 in Houston..and… Philly cheesesteak???;

On American soccer

“Judging by the USA’s performance in the World Cup, [they are] very strong because they’ve got a lot of quality, both as individuals and as a team. Obviously it’s growing all the time, and hopefully it will be successful. I’m sure it will because the fans that come to our games are fanatical and they know their stuff, and the facilities are second-to-none.”

On Landon Donovan in England.

“I think it was interesting when Landon Donovan came over because we heard he was probably the top player in the USA and how he was going to do in the Premiership, and he did really well. [He’s] probably not the stereotype American football/soccer player that’s been over before. I think he was skillful and he handled himself well, and the fans at Everton loved him and wanted him to come back.”

On the match against young Philadelphia Union on July 21.

“They’ll want to test themselves against one of the biggest clubs in the world and we’re still in training and we’ll want to win every game like I say. It’ll be interesting to see how the game goes. If we can help them in any way to progress quicker, just by the way we play or just by the way we train and prepare for games, then hopefully we can do that.”

On Philly and Philly cheese steak.

“It’s my third time that I’ve been there. The things that come to mind [in Philly], we stay at the hotel which is at the bottom of the steps where Rocky runs up. We went to see a baseball game when we were last there. The stadium [Lincoln Financial], it was a new stadium when we played there. I think we might have even been the first team to play there, so the facilities are unbelievable. I don’t know about our nutritionist allowing us to eat Philly cheese steaks, so, maybe we’ll get a chance this time.
