Ryan Giggs believes he is on the verge of an historic ninth Premiership title with Manchester United. Giggs's team are nine points clear of second-placed Chelsea with nine games to play - though Chelsea have a game in hand - and the Wales international is convinced the title is on the way to Old Trafford for the first time since 2003.
If United can hold onto their lead at the top of the table, Wales winger Giggs, 33, will become the first player ever to win nine English championships. Giggs, who made his 700th appearance for United in their 1-0 win at Liverpool on Saturday, is tied with former Liverpool duo Phil Neal and Alan Hansen on eight medals at present.
One more title will make history for Giggs and, speaking after John O'Shea's 90th minute winner at Anfield, he told MUTV: "Chelsea are running out of games now to catch us so all we've got to do now is keep winning games.
"The squad has looked really strong, we saw that at Reading on Tuesday in the Cup. And we are in a healthy position as a team, but we have still got to go out and get the results.
