    Just because Giggs is 36, doesn't mean he has a particular great workrate. He has looked after himself and will always have a touch but workrate, in terms of attacking minded players means defending from the front and not giving space to anyone. Olic and Kuyt are good examples.

    Because he's made out to be some sort of legend in world football. He was a good player not a great player most goals he got in a season was 17 nothing exceptional there. Personal awards, yes he won the player of the year once and even that it was given as merit rather than a year of great performance. He's won alot win Man U ill give him that but good players can win alot if there at a team for so long. I'm not saying he is a bad player because he isnt but he aint the gods git he's made out to be not by a long shot.

    no one said he was the most skillfull player ever or the best ( ability wise ) but he was/is good * good and hes kept those standards goin for nearly 20 years to say hes overated is a joke, at 35 to still have the ability to change games on his own in arguebly the best league in the world just shows how good he is , seriously even LFC, arsenal and chelsea fans wouldn't even argue against giggs ability or his achievements.
