Arise, Sir Giggsy

Sir Alex Ferguson has backed Ryan Giggs for a knighthood. Fergie said "There is one accolade which has yet to materialise for Ryan, although I trust it is only a matter of time before it does.

"How I would love to adorn my teamsheet with the words 'Sir Ryan Giggs'.

The Sun has a dig in how Giggsy would look like if he gets knighted. Personally, I would definetly LOVE to see Giggsy, one of my idols get knighted.

FACEBOOK FANS' ALL-TIME BARCLAYS PREMIER LEAGUE XI

Recently, Facebook fans of Barclays Football (including myself) voted on the best player ever in the Premier League for each position.

The Great Dane, Peter Schmeichel helped Manchester United reach their first Treble ever in 1999.

Former teammate of Schmeichel, captain of Manchester United Gary Neville gets his spot as best right-back.

John Terry is definitely not crying because he was voted top centreback. An iconic picture as JT bawls out after slipping away a penalty kick that could have won him the Champions League title.

JT joins Tony Adams, formerly of Arsenal in an all time Premier League centreback partnership.

Frenchman Patrice Evra beat out Ashley Cole for a spot as best left back.

Nowadays, left winger Ryan Giggs has less chest hair. Giggsy couldn't help it when he scored a brilliant solo effort against Arsenal in an 1999 FA Cup replay. With a majestic left foot, Sir Ryan could make a movie with the title " The Curious Case of Ryan Giggs" as he grows younger every season. Giggs is the only person to ever score in EVERY Premier League season so far.

"He Score's GOALS, SCHOLES"

Giggsy's friend since their days in the youth system at United , central midfielder Paul Scholes who is also like a bottle of wine as Ryan Giggs.

Another great central midfielder, , Steven Gerrard. A scouser with a passion for his club, Stevie G is a true Liverpudlian captain.

There is only one David Beckham. Becks scores from free kicks and corner kicks. He achieved a lot with Manchester United, the club he supported as a kid like in 1999 when he won the Treble with United.

Frenchman Thierry Henry may now be known as a handballer but one cannot deny his talent. He scored, scored, scored and scored. Won awards but sadly went to Barcelona.

Le Roi, Monsieur Eric Cantona was also voted greatest striker. An enigma with wonderful quotes and shocking moments in his career (yes, THAT one at Crystal Palace), Cantona is still greatly admired by United fans and neutrals alike.

AND THE MANAGER:

Sir Alex Ferguson has won everything. Countless league titles, FA Cups, League Cups, European Cups, Club World Cup.. (i think you get it). 1999 was the highlight of Fergie's career as he lead Man United to their first Treble ever.

FAW To Approach Ryan Giggs On Wales Job

The Football Association of Wales will speak to Manchester United this week about involving Ryan Giggs in their coaching set-up when manager John Toshack quits.

As revealed in Sportsmail yesterday, Toshack has recommended Giggs as his successor and the FAW now plan to try to lure the United winger into his first coaching role.

This deal more likely to appeal to the former Wales captain, and indeed to United, at a time when Giggs is still trying to extend his playing days. He already has his coaching badges from UEFA.
Toshack is expected to confirm his departure this week, although he may agree to remain in charge for next month’s qualifying doubleheader against Bulgaria and Switzerland so as not to leave his country in the lurch.

Sir Alex Ferguson skips Manchester United's Open Training Session-to watch Werder Bremen against Fulham

While Wayne Rooney and Ryan Giggs share a joke while Berbatov acts serious;

Sir Alex Ferguson was 200 miles away in London at Craven Cottage to watch Fulham against Werder Bremen which means;

He was there as a scout to watch Mesut Özil, Werder Bremen's main man and one of the World Cup's revelations.

Gee...I wonder where he got that from....

Believe-Man United's Mantra...hmm....

Well, I don't want to speculate but I just can't stop! Sir Alex Ferguson has said that he won't open the cheque book but Arsenal and Chelsea are also tracking the German midfielder and he doesn't want to ruin his chances.

Oh Yeah: Fulham won 5-1.

Manchester United overcame a determined Tottenham side to go top of the Premier League. The Old Trafford side had two Ryan Giggs penalties to thank for their victory which puts them ahead of Chelsea at least until the west London side takes on Stoke City on Sunday.

After a quiet first half Patrice Evra was felled in the box by Benoit Assou Ekotto and veteran Giggs made no mistake from the spot. Ledley King headed in from a Gareth Bale corner to level things ten minutes later. However Nani restored United’s lead over the White Hart Lane side.

Ryan Giggs put away another spot kick after Wilson Palacios brought down Nani to seal the contest and hand Sir Alex Ferguson a crucial win.

Long time injury victims Aaron Lennon and Owen Hargreaves were subs of the match.

Manchester United Train Ahead Of Bayern Munich

Nemanja Vidic heads the ball which he was really good at against Bolton

Youngsters Macheda (2nd from left) and De Laet (4th from left) were also part of the 23 man squad that flew out to Germany.

Giggsy, Scholesy and Neville were all there during United's Champions League Final triumph over Bayern Munich.

"4 goals, I promise". Maybe Wayne is promising the gaffer he would repeat his demolition of Hull City during their recent form.

Is he laughing at the ball?

Nice hairstyle, Berba.

Darron Gibson sealed the deal by scoring a superb strike at the 81st minute.
