Wigan boss Bruce: Giggs among Man Utd's greatest ever
Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Wed, 01/14/2009 - 07:45
Wigan Athletic boss Steve Bruce was delighted for his old Manchester United teammate Ryan Giggs after his display on Sunday.
"His performance against Chelsea was awesome,” Bruce said. “Giggs has been there, done it and got the T-shirt, yet he played with the enthusiasm of an 18-year-old. All those prima-donna players and big-time Charlies, who think they are good players, should look at Ryan.
"If they did, then they might be a little bit more humble. He has to be one of United's greatest players of all time. To go from the age of 17 to 35 at a club like Manchester United, where you have to cope with the demands week in, week out, it's scary. It'll never be done again.”

There is only Mancini who has done the same as Ryan & even more years because he is a few years older still
