Ryan Giggs: Doesn't want United to trail Chelsea early in the season
Ryan Giggs knows Manchester United do not want to be letting Jose Mourinho "raise the bar" on his return to Chelsea.
Mourinho's initial spell at Stamford Bridge began with a couple of blistering openings to Premier League campaigns.
At the time, Sir Alex Ferguson's strategy was to start slowly and build momentum ahead of a flying finish.
It meant he was caught off guard as Chelsea flew out of the blocks and United were never able to make up for the lost ground.
Ahead of next Monday's encounter between the two clubs at Old Trafford, Giggs has recalled the experience, which should focus the mind given the trips to Liverpool and Manchester City.
"When Mourinho was at Chelsea, they obviously got off to good starts and we didn't manage to catch them," said Giggs.
"It has been well documented that we have a tough start but you like to get off to a good start.
"We got a good win at Swansea on Saturday and hopefully we can carry that on.
