Giggs gets going

  • Ryan Giggs has now scored 29 times in 16 Champions League seasons, but where did this impressive tally begin? Seventeen years ago precisely - against IFK Gothenburg at Old Trafford on 14 September 1994.

    Watch that historic strike again here in our free video - and look out for more special videos honouring Ryan's European goals this Thursday and Friday on ManUtd.com.

    Ryan Giggs' 29th Champions League goal for United brought back memories of his very first - weirdly scored on the exact same date, 14 September, in 1994.

  • "Manchester United believe we may be seeing the start of a very special career here this afternoon.

    "Giggs, the young Welshman who caused such a stir when he signed for the club at the end of last year, is getting an early opportunity to make his mark in the big league.

    "Alex Ferguson has said he's the most outstanding talent he's ever worked with of his age."

    Ryan Giggs - Greatest ever United player

  • Whatever your definition of 'greatness', Ryan Giggs surely has them all nailed.

    His status as the Reds' all-time record appearances maker - with 859 games and counting - is enough on its own to place him in the pantheon of United greats. Then consider the fact that no other player has helped the club to win more trophies and again, his coat hangs proudly on one of the highest pegs in the Hall of Fame.
