Ryan Giggs scored wonder goal against Arsenal.
How about yours? It all started with a super ran down from mid field and single handedly zig zag out of 3 defenders and finish the run with a goal. Ryan Giggs was one of those key heros of man u in the 90's. Brillant talent, and worst off, he is not english.. hahaha.
Is just one of those you cant see much now in EPL..!

Ryan Giggs
Born: 29 Nov 1973, Cardiff, Wales
• Signed: 9 Jul 1990, trainee
• Other Previous Clubs: None
• Debut: 2 March 1991 v Everton (H) Division 1
• International Team: Wales
He is one of United's most decorated and successful ever servants, yet Ryan Giggs might never have graced Old Trafford had it not been for a knock at the door from Sir Alex Ferguson on his 14th birthday.
Cardiff-born Giggs gained his initial football grounding with Dean's Youth FC, whose coach, Denis Schofield, later referred him to Manchester City's School of Excellence.
At the time of Fergie's visit to his house, Giggs had been told that he no longer had a future at City and consequently jumped at the United boss’s offer to sign schoolboy forms with the Reds.
He turned professional in November 1990 and made his League debut against Everton at Old Trafford on 2 March 1991 as a sub for Denis Irwin.
Giggs’ first League start proved to be a memorable occasion as he scored his first ever United goal (albeit via a wicked deflection!) in a 1-0 win over his former club in the Manchester derby.
An injury to Lee Sharpe enabled Giggs to pin down a regular first team place at the start of the 1991/92 season. Despite his initial recurring hamstring problems (which have since eased), he soon made the left-wing position his own thanks to his memorising dribbling skills and blistering pace.
He collected his first piece of silverware in April 1992 as United defeated Nottingham Forest in the League Cup final after Giggs had set up Brian McClair to bag the only goal of the game.
The following season saw Giggs claim the first of his eight Premiership medals and he also became the first player to be named the PFA's Young Player of the Year for the second consecutive year.
Giggs also has European Cup, European Super Cup and Inter-Continental Cup winners’ medals to his name, while he has played a major part in four of Sir Alex Ferguson's five FA Cup triumphs.
Indeed, English football's oldest Cup competition will forever be synonymous with the Reds winger after he scored one of the greatest goals ever witnessed in the semi-final replay against Arsenal in April 1999.
Giggs celebrated his 10-year anniversary at Old Trafford with a testimonial match against Celtic at the start of the 2001/02 campaign, while a year later he bagged his 100th career goal for United in the 2-2 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
The 2-1 victory over Liverpool on 20 September 2004 saw Giggs become only the third player to play 600 games for United alongside Sir Bobby Charlton (759) and Bill Foulkes (688).
The climax to the 2004/05 season saw Giggs agree a new deal which will keep him at the club until 2008.
by the way how old is he now???
