Man United's Victor Lindelof 'shouldn't be written off yet' - Ryan Giggs

Ryan Giggs has backed Victor Lindelof to come good at Manchester United like Nemanja Vidic, Patrice Evra and Jaap Stam.

Lindelof has come under fire for his performance in the 2-1 defeat to Huddersfield -- his first real taste of the Premier League -- after he was at fault for the second goal.

Lindelof, who arrived at Old Trafford in a £31 million deal from Benfica in the summer, is in line to keep his place for the Carabao Cup fourth-round tie with Swansea on Tuesday.

Giggs watched defenders Stam, Vidic and Evra go on to lift Premier League titles and the Champions League after tough starts to their United careers, and he insists there is no reason why Lindelof cannot bounce back and be a success.
