#5 Ryan Giggs vs. Queens Park Rangers, 2013
Trending
The all-time record English Premier League appearance holder is a Manchester United legend through and through – he made 963 outings in all competitions for them.
The Welsh star won a toal of 35 major honours with the Red Devils, including a whopping 13 Premier League crowns and two Champions League medals.
His loyalty to the club cannot be questioned. It’s easy to imagine, when his managerial career kickstarts into action once again, that he will return to the Old Trafford dugout in a few years time.
In all, he netted 168 goals for the club (109 in the league), and although he wasn’t their most clinical goalscorer, he could always be relied on to test ‘keepers and score some really important goals – like his famous goal against Arsenal in the FA Cup.
His last goal for United came against Queens Park Rangers at 39 years of age – 22 years after he first struck for them as a teenager. The goal, an accurately hit strike past the approaching ‘keeper Julio Cesar summed up Giggs’ intelligence as he beat the offside trap and opted for placement over power under pressure. Marvellous.
