Ryan Giggs is the most decorated football in English football history, since making his debut for Manchester United on the 2nd March 1991 United’s number 11 has now hit another milestone after making his 900th appearance for the club.
Not only did Giggs make his 900th appearance, he also won United’s game against Norwich by scoring the winner very late on to give United a 2-1 win, which meant the club left Carrow Road with all three points.
Following the 2-1 win Giggs spoke to MUTV and said he is enjoying football more than ever and is already looking forward to next season. The 38-year-old said:
“To play 900 games for Manchester United is obviously something to be proud of. Especially growing up as a United fan.”
“When you start off, you just set yourself little goals – to get into the team and obviously to stay in the team. Then you get a little bit greedy and want to win things, and then win more things. I don’t think you ever envisage you’re going to play that many games.”
“I’m enjoying my football more than ever. The club want me to carry on so I want to carry on. I’m hungry and still want to play. I look forward to next season – hopefully after winning something this season.”
Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson sung Giggs’ praises. Speaking post-match Sir Alex said:
“It’s incredible for Ryan to mark his 900th game with the winning goal with the last kick of the ball – he deserves it for his service to the club. For a player to play for one club for 900 games is exceptional and it won’t be done again. An amazing career and an amazing man.”
Giggs’ team-mates were also made up for the midfielder, after the game they took to twitter:
Michael Owen tweeted: “The man is a legend! Just when we need someone to produce – Giggsy bags the winner!”
Tom Cleverley tweeted: “Giggs on his 900th game buzzzzing. De Gea was class today.”
Rio Ferdinand tweeted: “Massive 3 points for us. Norwich gave us a hard game. We never give in though which is the Man Utd way! Ryan Giggs-900 games…madness!”
