Gary Neville hailed Ryan Giggs a legend in the truest sense of
the word after the Welshman inspired United to a slender 1-0 win
over Tottenham at Old Trafford.
The 32-year-old, who before the match received the August Player of
the Month award, scored after 12 minutes with a header to maintain
the teams unbeaten start to the season and return the Reds to the
top of the Premiership.
Surprisingly, it is the first time Giggs has ever won the award,
and Neville says his recent impressive performances are nothing out
of the ordinary.
Ryan has been playing like that for the last 12 years, Neville
told Sky Sports. Hes a brilliant footballer.
When he does finish playing he will be truly regarded as a great.
Hes incredible, he takes his game to another level and progresses
every season.
Giggs goal was the only difference between United and Tottenham on
Saturday, and Reds skipper Neville was quick to admit it was a
nervy finish. But he also says United can have achieved no more
than maximum points at this stage of the season.
We could have done with a second goal, he said. We were under
pressure, but they are a good team. Both teams missed chances, but
were happy to get through the game, particularly after the
international break, because that can always be a difficult
time.
