Wow, what a magical goal from Giggs against West Ham!
Update:
The goal from Giggs reminds me of some from the George Best collection, where he twists, turns, swerves and bamboozles defenders. Sir Alex Ferguson in an interview last week thought that Giggs deserves a knighthood solely for his longevity – almost 20 years in the starting lineup at United, 800 games and 150 goals, ten Premier League medals, closing in on 11, in addition to a couple of Champions League medals and numerous FA Cup and League Cup victories thrown in. Well, if this goal doesn’t catalyze that process, I fail to see what will.

Obliged.
The goal came in the 62nd minute of the game. In the video, it is around the 7-minute mark.

Superb individual goal…but I Giggs scoring such goals multiple times in the earlier seasons…he is kind of a “Markandeyan” of football…

Brilliant goal, awesome footballer – the only Mancunian besides Cantona I will ever openly admit to admiring!!
Completely agree with you on the knighthood thingy also. After Beijing, when you look at the sportsmen who have made the Queens Honours list, its shocking that people like Giggs have still not what they deserved..
Btw, I really fancy Man Utd to do the quadruple (League, FA Cup and Carling) – when you can boast of the likes of Fletcher, Nani, O’Shea and Brown as your third choice players in their position, then THAT is SQUAD DEPTH.
I’m kinda hoping Man U’ll come unstuck against Barca @ Rome. However, if they meet the Catalans in an earlier round over 2 legs, they will go through…
