yard after Nemanja Vidic's header had struck first Rooney, then Dean Whitehead.
Giggs has never been prolific, but he is the only person to score in every season since the Premier League was launched in 1992.
He will get a chance to extend that run next term, having signed another one-year extension.
Despite his years, he remains a hungry player and snaffled his 155th United goal with relish after Berbatov's low cross had fallen perfectly for him.
United's attitude was admirable as Stoke's supporters rubbed in every Chelsea goal with a loud cheer of celebration.
After berating Nani for a poor cross, Rooney delivered the low effort that Higginbotham turned into his own net as he desperately tried to prevent a United player putting in there; Nani and Berbatov queuing up to finish.
Rooney made his exit later on to spark the game's major talking point.
His replacement, Park, rounded off the scoring when he met Giggs' corner with a firm diving header.
