    Yes I also put his name ahead of great George Best and Eric Cantona and I guess no player can win such title medals.

    Giggs is class. I recall seeing him on his Man U debut and knew then he was special. He is a classic English winger, a species the modern game sorely lacks. He also has a great football noddle and a fearsome left peg.

    He is a total legend.
    Maybe he is not that fast, but his tricks are awesome. He can beat any defender in the world one on one with him.

    Giggs against Bolton

    What more is there to say about Giggs? At this point, you could just cut and paste all the paragraphs of praise previously lavished on the evergreen winger this season. Jlloyd Samuel was added to a long list of victims who cannot control the Welshman in his twilight years.

    As an Arsenal fan I sawly hate him for the many game winning goals he has scored to deny us leagues and cups!
