Ryan Giggs put on yet another man-of-the-match display as Manchester United romped past Derby County and into the sixth round of the FA Cup.

The 35-year-old has been a revelation this season, moving away from the left-hand touchline - his home for the best part of 18 years - to take up a unique role in the centre of midfield.

And Robbie Savage reckons his fellow Welshman should be odds on to snare what would, quite remarkably, be his first PFA Player of the Year award.

The Derby midfielder said in The Sun, Ryan was unbelievable [on Saturday]. Hes so hard to pick up.

Hes redefined his role. He plays in the middle of the park, he plays out wide, he plays up front. Hes a credit to himself and to the game and, for me, hes the Player of the Year.

Ryans 35 and every time he plays he seems to get man of the match. When he was a winger, he was incredible. Now hes changed his role and hes still incredible.

He sits in behind the midfield and you dont know whether to drop in to pick him up.

Giggs is also expected to add to his trophy haul this season, as United remain alive on all fronts and are on target to claim a third consecutive Premier League crown.

Savage, a product of the Old Trafford youth system, believes Sir Alex Ferguson's current crop are the best of the best.

He said, I go and watch them on my days off Ive had quite a few of them this season and they can win the lot.

Theyre top of the Premier League, theyre in the Carling Cup final and theyve got a tough game against Inter Milan in the Champions League next week.

This is their best squad ever. They had no recognised striker against us and still had fantastic players up there.

When we saw the team sheet, we thought we might be in with half a chance. But we were beaten by the better team. No complaints.
