Football's greatest ever no.10 and no.7

#5 Ryan Giggs (Manchester United)

Manchester United v Everton - Premier League
Premier League's best ever

Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs holds a special place in the history of Premier League football. No player has won more Premier League medals than the Welshman. He has also won four FA Cup titles, three League Cup titles, and two UEFA Champions League titles.

Ever since his debut in 1990, Giggs played 24 seasons for Manchester United and was one of the most respected footballers. Intelligent movement, crossing, and passing were regarded as his greatest attributes. Giggs also holds the record for the most assists in Premier League history (271).

Ryan Giggs played a total of 963 games for Manchester United and scored 168 goals. In 2007, he was awarded a medal of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for his outstanding services to football. The no.11 Jersey will never be forgotten at Old Trafford, and in all honesty, should be retired.
