Ryan Giggs - Born and Red Legend in the making

The title says it all really. As Ryan Giggs announces his retirement from playing, 

here is my brief  blog on the legend himself.

A tribute to one of the most decorated players in Manchester United’s history,  A footballing legend. 

When Ryan Giggs burst onto the scene in 1990 few would have thought he’d continue till he is 40! Running down the wing,gliding in and out scoring or assisting fellow team mates was a great sight to see. An inspiration to the footballing world young and old.

24 Years

963 Games

168 Goals

13 PL Titles

2 UCL

4 FA Cups

4 League Cups
Consecutively scoring in every Premier League season since it began bar last season.

Broke many records along the way, as years went by his experienced was made useful by him often playing in a central midfield role which had flourished exceptionally well.  Some of his passes were just pure matching winning brilliance, Fedrico Macheda v Aston Villa 2009 and Michael Owen (Manchester Derby ) 2009 to just name a few.

Taking up Yoga was a great idea for Ryan Giggs as he stayed healthy and produced the goods whenever he was picked, not going to be biased and say he didn't have a bad game even the greatest have had bad games, was last of the Class of ‘92 to unfortunately call it a day. Its sad to see such a legend and a favourite of mine retiring but as he takes up that Assistant role to Louis Van Gaal will we see the next “Ryan Giggs”
