Ryan Giggs in action versus Fulham

No one has won more silverware in club Football than Ryan Giggs. His 23 year tenure as part of the United first team saw him win 13 Premier League titles, four FA Cups, four League Cups, two European Cups, the Intercontinental Cup, the Super Cup and the Club World Cup.

Giggs's illustrious United career began when he signed a professional contract with the club during the 1990-91 season and began competing for a place in the starting line-up in the Left Wing position that was proving problematic for manager, Sir Alex Ferguson to resolve as he alternated between Danny Wallace and Lee Sharpe.

Giggs won consecutive PFA Young Player of the Year Awards in 1991-92 and 1992-93 as he took English Football by storm.

With unrivalled pace and dribbling skills, Giggs could breeze past opponents with ease and was a great provider and scorer of goals.

Giggs's promotion to the first team consisted of an incredible upturn in form as the club enjoyed unprecedented success over the next two decades.

Giggs is best remembered for his 1999 FA Cup Semi-Final Replay winning goal versus Arsenal. Reduced to 10 men and rapidly running out of steam, United appeared to be there for the taking by their great rivals. However, when Giggs took possession of the ball just inside his own half he dribbled 50 yards, past all of Arsenal's defence and smashed a shot past David Seaman into the roof of the Arsenal goal.

Giggs's association with United continued past his playing days as he was player coach under David Moyes, interim manager for four games following Moyes's dismissal and served as Assistant Manager under new manager Louis Van Gaal.

Giggs finally ended his long association with United in summer 2016 following Jose Mourinho's appointment as boss, wanting to become a first team coach rather than an assistant. Giggs is currently manager of the Wales international team.
