“I feel very good, very proud, I think it’s something difficult to achieve,” he said of this achievement to Homewood and co-host Helen Evans.
“To play 500 games for any team is tough, but especially to play 500 for a massive club like Manchester United, is something crazy.
“I said already but I think I will realise [the achievement] more when I stop playing and maybe I’m at home and relaxing, and say ‘okay, I played more than 500 games for this massive club.’”
