#1 Ryan Giggs

13 Premier League titles, nine community shields, four FA Cups, four League Cups, two Champions League titles, two Premier League Player of the Year awards and a Club World Cup title, need I say more?

Giggs broke into the first team at the age of just seventeen. He soon cemented his spot in the senior squad and hung on to his position for many years. One thing that the Welshman excelled at was running with the ball at his feet. He moved like a gazelle past the defenders with none able to catch him. The unpredictive nature of his game used to leave even the most veteran defenders bewildered.

An outstanding career that spanned over 23 years during which he made 963 appearances. That's more than 200 than his nearest contender, Sir Bobby Charlton. This obviously makes him the highest appearance maker as well as the best Manchester United academy graduate of all time.
