The Eva-Green Red Devil

What a player? What a man....Ryan Giggs is a true legend of the game, a man who defines loyalty, brilliance and class.

Giggs has worn the red colours of Manchester since joining the youth team in 1987 and since then has be a true faithful. With sublime skill full movement, awareness and touch of brilliance, United's number eleven can be tagged as the Greatest Manchester Player of all time.

With 814 appearances, and now having scored his 150th goals, the man for all seasons seems to have found his youth once again. At 36 Giggs now plays a more of an impact role within the squad, providing the experience that's required in the Premiership.

Looking back over the years, Ryan has been there as many world class players came and went, the likes of Eric Cantona, David Beckham, Van Nistelrooy and the lastest been Cristiano Ronaldo. All these players made their name at United but left not long thereafter, but as for Giggsy his still there leading the squad successfully.

Role Model

Giggs is the perfect example of how a footballer should behave on and of the pitch, he has played for over two decades now and as the game changes, Ryan has stuck to his morale's. In over 20 years with Manchester United, Giggsy has never been sent off, and only once has he been sent of while playing for his national team, Wales in 2001.

Its obvious that there might have been incidence that where are not characterized as good conduct, but for a player in this day and age, the good definetly over weights the bad.

Honours

Ryan might not have won the European or World Footballer of the year, but has won more league titles than many English clubs. Eleven league titles in total, 4 FA Cups, 7 Community Shields, 2 Champion Leagues and has also won the UEFA Super Cup, Intercontinental Cup and World Club World Cup with Manchester United.

In 2009, he recieved the PFA Player of the Year, and in 2005 was inducted into the English Football Hall of Fame.

So after all these years at a single club, with so much of success Ryan Giggs is the only player to have scored in every Premier League campaign since its inception. He has also scored a goal in eleven consecutive Champions Leagues.

But looking at all the stats in the world won't describe this man, Ryan Giggs has set a benchmark for all current and future United players, something that the likes of Wayne Rooney aims to achieve.

Personally i feel that this season will be Giggsy's most important season, and one where he will have the largest impact. Already we've seen some amazing runs, free kicks and sublime movement.

While many opposition supporters feel its time he hang his boots, the United Faithfull can't get enough of his brilliance.

Long Live the Legend of Old Trafford....LongLive Ryan Giggs
