Ryan Giggs has retired. Remarkable career by a loyal, legendary @ManUtd entertainer. 963 games. 34 trophies. 1 club. pic.twitter.com/toK65EPfWT

What's left to say about Giggsy..
The man is something else, an honour to sit next to him everyday, he's genuinely as good as it gets.

Ryan Giggs retires today....so many gold medals he puts B.A. Baracus to shame! No player adapted their game as well & as effective as Giggsy

The only top flight player remaining that I actually played against has called it a day. Makes me feel rather ancient. #ryangiggs

Amongst all the news from OT today it seems as though not much has been made of Ryan Giggs retiring. He has to be best ever united player
