1. His Trophy Haul
12 Premier League titles, 4 FA Cups, 4 Football League Cups, 8 Community Shields, two Champions Leagues, 1 Super Cup, 1 Intercontinental Cup and 1 FIFA Club World Cup - Ryan Giggs is the most decorated player in English football and nobody comes close to emulating that feat. A player's success is measured by how many medals he has around his neck and how many trophies he has in his cabinet when all is said and done - not that he'd ever boast about that. You see, one more thing that makes Ryan Giggs the greatest player in Premier League history is his down to earth attitude. For all his accomplishments, you never see an ounce of arrogance about him. Giggs is a player who keeps himself to himself - shy and reserved off the field, he does all his talking on it, and that's just one reason why he has enjoyed such a tremendous career. The worrying thing is that Giggs looks like adding even further to his record-breaking trophy haul this year with a 13th league title well in sight and a 3rd Champions League and fifth FA Cup still to play for. He is a player who never stops achieving. Is Ryan Giggs the greatest Premier League player of all time? Let us know in the comment section below.
