Giggs is currently in his eighteenth season with United, having never played for any other club. Throughout his illustrious career, the winger has played well over 700 games, scoring close to 150 goals, cementing his place as one of the greatest United players ever to have graced the Old Trafford pitch.曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛!

Giggsy’s trophy cabinet is positively bulging, having won nine league titles, one European Cup, four FA Cups and two league cups. As the 2007-08 season gets well under way, the Welsh wonder admits that he still wants to win two more Premiership crowns.曼联在线·球迷地带7 W0 [  `: K+ d1 X( k# N% l
“It would be nice to get to 10 ━ but it would be nicer to get to 11! I don’t want to be greedy but that’s my shirt number, so that’s what I’m aiming for,” he told United’s official website.
Having won the title last season, the 33-year-old agrees that it is more difficult to defend a title than to win one in the first place.
“It is probably a little bit harder to defend it because everybody wants to beat the champions. There is that extra pressure, and there’s also extra hunger from the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal because they haven’t won it the season before.”www.imanutd.com! U# Y2 Z. J$ \- u+ R& J

“The quality is Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea. Everyone, including ourselves, has all added [players]. Tottenham have added a lot of players as well, so you’re looking at those sorts of teams.

“You never know, it might give the chance to players like Robin van Persie and Emmanuel Adebayor to step up for them. They’ve still got quality. Everybody’s strengthened where they felt they needed to, but we’re happy with the way we’ve bought.”
As the legend enters the twilight of his playing career, he reflects on changing times at the club he holds so dear, but admits, with a hint of regret, that the future of United is just as bright without him in the squad.曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛, K  P4 L# A$ w2 S
“Over the last two or three years the manager has bought young players as he looks to the future, which is something you’ve got to do at this club. You can’t stand still.
“Myself, Scholesy, Nev, we’ll not play forever. We needed to bring the age of the team down and we’ve done that, but at the moment we’ve got a good mixture of experience and young players. Eventually these young players will be the future of United. The club never stands still and never will.”8 ~; @7 c5 B9 H! |

吉格斯的奖杯厨已很满了，由于他已收集了9项联赛冠军，一项欧冠杯冠军， 4项足总杯冠军以及两项联赛杯冠军。正当07/08联赛正如火如荼得进行中时，吉格斯承认他还想夺得两次英超冠军。
吉格斯说:"如果能夺得第10座英超冠军感觉会很好，但如果能得到第11座感觉会更好。我并不想贪心，但11是我在队中衣服的号码，所以那就是我的目标。"曼联在线·球迷地带# L* V8 C9 w3 H2 L
在夺得上赛季的联赛冠军后，吉格斯认为要卫冕冠军的话会比夺得冠军还难。
他说:"我认为要卫冕冠军会有些困难，因为大家都想击败冠军队伍。会出现更多压力以及更多渴望，尤其是像切尔西，阿森纳以及利物浦那样的队伍，因为他们上赛季错过了冠军。曼联,曼联BT,曼联在线视频,曼联图片,曼联新闻,曼联论坛; y2 k; X5 ^4 s+ D

他说:"在这几年里，主教练已引进了许多年轻球员，这都是一支队伍需要的，因为你不能停止不动。我还有斯科尔斯都不能永远踢球下去，球队必须把球员的年龄降低。我们已经做到了这点，但现在我们的队中拥有年轻球员也有经验丰富的球员，这些年轻球员都是球会的未来希望。”
