He also holds the record for most appearances in the Premier League. He has played in 672 league matches for United and scored 114 goals. Giggs was versatile as a footballer and comfortable playing in both central midfield and the flanks. He also had two strong feet and could play in either wing. Giggs’ dribbling, short passing and great vision made him a priceless footballer for United.
In his prime, Giggs was the best footballer in Great Britain and a talisman for the great United side under Sir Alex Ferguson. He was an intrinsic part of the great 4-man midfield featuring Roy Keane, Paul Scholes, David Beckham and himself. He would go down as the most successful footballer to have ever played in the Premier League and was selected in PFA's team of the century in 2007. No other player has delivered as much and for as long for his club as Giggs has done for United.
