My old teammate and Dutch goalscoring legend Ruud van Nistelrooy takes on my questions on The Overlap, brought to you by SkyBet.
Ruud managed 25 goals in his golden boot winning season in 2002/03 at Manchester United, so it felt like a fitting tribute to pick 25 questions for him on our walk in Eindhoven where he manages PSV.
We chat about his best ever goal, manager and pre match meal; as well as music, parties and the hardest defender he's faced in his career.
The full interview is out next week, make sure to subscribe now and turn notifications on, if you like.

Joaquin or Roy Keane? 😂
Gary is one of a kind hahah
well...Joaquin is an alphabetical combo of Keane and his favorite word "Job"!
I just imagined Spaniard version of Roy
Joaquin started against Man U the other week. 41 year old, starting in Europe. Legend.
Neville still cant comprehend spanish pronounciation even tho he worked there 😂😂😂 also when Ruud said ‘Bernabeu’ Neville had to say it in British as if he wasnt sure it was the same thing 😂😂
150 goals in 219 appearances for United. Says it all really. He was a phenomenal goalscorer absolutely ruthless
Ruudless indeed
Would have been our all time top scorer if he stayed
one of the best poachers ever to play the game tbh - coming from an arsenal fan
Fully agree mate with gritted teeth 😬 he was world class i say that an I'm a Liverpool fan
Especially the defenders he played against at that time.Rude is just exceptional
Sounds like he's really chilled and philosophical about how it ended at United. Picking Sir Alex and Ronaldo without skipping a beat. Absolute legend.
That's maturity
I think he just wants to save his image by saying that. When asked if he prefers Ronaldo or Messi, he said : "I always says Ronaldo because I have a past with him". He implies he doesn't mean Ronaldo is better than Messi. Hiding his true thought is no proof of a respectful person.
sir alex really rated ruud so i guess the feeling was mutual. pretty sure he picked up a seriously bad injury and sir alex still wanted him.
@@seanfray535 He did. Think it was a knee injury that kept him out for months, if not a whole season. But Sir Alex waited to see how he'd recover and then signed him. The problems came later. Sir Alex showed him the door because of his apparent behaviour towards Ronaldo, who was obviously United's new golden boy. How be left United played on Ruud's mind for a few years and he eventually rang Sir Alex to apologise and that simple act fixed their relationship.
What a nonsense comment. You think to deep man
Loved Ruud. I remember his bad knee injury before signing for Utd, Fergie rang him almost daily for a year until he got fit again, then signed him. That paid off as Ruud loved him for it. A real goal-scorer in any era.
Theres that video of him going down in agony if i remember correctly. Not a lot of players come back from that type of knee injury either. Great player.
You just reminded me of that injury. I remember that. What a legend Ruud was.
Charlie veitch is ruud maternal brother
These top Dutch players have a certain classy, humble way about them.. I.e. bergkamp, rvp, rvn, stam etc. full respect
Huge respect to Ruud. He often gets forgotten in greatest striker debates. He was the quintessential number 9. An absolute menace in and around the penalty area. From a Newcastle fan.
Cheers for letting us know you're a Newcastle fan.
I don't think this is true, I really don't. I've never seen a Premier league greatest debate without him being mentioned.
@@Gagefelstead shearer, cantona, henry, cristiano, drogba .. there are so many who get mentioned instead / more often then ruud .. i do think there have certainly been overall better ones BUT ruud was definetly a beast. im from germany and when he signed for hamburg it was a huge deal here ( same with raul for schalke ). i know so many people who just started watching hamburg games or atleast highlights because of him and he delivered well. great awareness and instincts, great finishing with heavy strikes. and man this interview definetly made me a bigger fan of him, seems like such a cool guy.
@@89kilemal 😂😂😂😂
@@michaelfellner9822 Maybe it's just with me living in the Uk then bud. I don't think I've ever watched one video about premier league greats/strikers without Van Nistelrooy being included & spoke about. Incredible player, and hopefully has a very successful managerial career
The fact that United waited a year on an injured striker said all we needed to know about how much they rated this guy. He didn’t disappoint.
I remember seeing it on the news as a young Gooner thinking “wow he has a huge injury. The video is nasty. But Fergie still wants him!.” Fergie knew
Fergie did make a couple bad signings alright but more times than not he nailed it, ruud is in his top 3 signings for me
although he did .. kzhead.info/sun/m8x6Y9ubraSdrJE/bejne.html
No mate, he most certainly did NOT disappoint, he missed a peno big deal
Was a strange video when he got injured tho, looked staged
When he mentioned the AC Milan back four, I got chills. Even the best players in the world today backed by Pep's tactics would be miserable vs that back four 🤕
De Bruyne, Haaland, 28 year old Messi and Mbappe vs that back four? They wouldn't get away with the shit they used to, not with VAR
@@goldytwatus1674 that’s coz football is played pussy now
@@goldytwatus1674yh what a shame football gone soft
that's why Liverpool's CL at Istanbul is considered a miracle
@@goldytwatus1674it’s not video games idiot none of those you mentioned tracks back so except for KDB they will lose by 10 goals
AC Milan fans always loved Dutch players. Huge respect for Ruud, the striker who gathered and extended the Marco Van Basten's legacy. 🙌
Van Basten was the most complete striker though...a level above Ruud...
@@fek8085better, I think so. But levels above, nope. Ruud scored screamers himself throughout his career. But Ruud arguably had a tad the better career
Obviously he is a talk and strong lad and deserve respect 😊😊
true. as a milan fans, he's one of my top 5 strikers in the early 00s
We also loved to witness your disposal of Bogarde, Reiziger, Kluivert and Davids lmao. One of the best memories of my childhood
RVN was the definition of clinical. What a striker
he was very clinical, I'm a Liverpool fan and I truely don't feel United have had a striker at Ruud's level since he left? Elite
Not as good as Mo Salah
@@TheHungryTrollRawr RVP
@@tf2368 Quite different players mate. Salah has performed at a very high level for years now, and can't be ignored. RVN was deadly, but needed the service a bit more than Salah, who has the ability to create for himself. Both great players, but in different ways.👍
In my opinion RVN and Romario are the definition of Elite Level Finishers what players they were
My favourite ever striker. People forget that "Van Nistelrooy or Henry" was a genuine debate and then he went to Madrid and won them their first league title in years, brilliant player
it was a half debate because henry was clear by a mile but van nistelrooy was a great finisher, and tbf did beat him to the golden boot in 1 season at least
As a teenage United fan at the time I always knew I was deluding myself by putting him in Henry's level. Very good striker, Ruud, but a level below Henry
Lol 😂😂
It was a genuine debate *ONLY* for United fans
@@LucasNauan What about Shevchenko?
Great person. Met him in Manchester airport. Had all the time in the world to sign autographs. I was the only one to go up and ask him and he laughed and he came over to our group and signed the rest.
What an absolute legend. People forget how good Ruud actually was. He has to be one of the best ever strikers United and the Premier League ever
In football history as whole . And I’m not even a man United fan
@@badsolja1I think that's a slight exaggeration, lol
@IWannatalkpodcast Really a guy with 92% chance per goal or something in his first season then 88% then 86% goal /per chance Can you ever comprehend how hard is that for most striker Ruud didn’t play on open football with 3 striker up front making space for him
@@IWannatalkpodcastnot really, he was truly world class in his prime. Not the most complete, but absolutely lethal as a pure striker.
one of the greatest strikers in the PL, 4 out of the 5 seasons he scored 20 league goals or more. Fantastic striker and excellent career
What about Mo Salah then?
@@Ibrahim-nf6yh What's your point ?
How about Salah scoring 20+ in 6 seasons in a row? Levels beyond this chap using YOUR logic may i add ;)
@@Ibrahim-nf6yh 🙄 "one of"
Even on youtube the twitter meme about liverpool fans is proven true 😂
I was in the stadium when he scored that unreal half way line run goal against Fulham, in 2003. My most cherished live football memory; thank you Ruud.
Was never as good as Mo Salah
@@tf2368 for chelsea or liverfool😅😂😂 ruud only got red running through him
@@tf2368 🤦🏼♂️
Me too! My one and only time eseeing the boys live.. that’s the only goal I can remember from that day, even though we won 3-1 ? 4-1??
Gotta love those special occasions. I was at White Hart Lane when we beat Spurs 4-0, van der Sar got injured with all subs used and John O'Shea saved 1 on 1 with Robbie Keane. We made such a ruccus in the first half that we got denied beer at half time, probably wise decision looking back. Loved that game, we never paused singing, whenever a song stopped we sang the calypso.
Yet another dutch class act - from watching the Jaap interview, to Wrighty spending time with Bergkamp, to watching this - these Dutch boys are true gents and were fantastic players. As someone in their early forties, its pure nostalgia fodder, thinking of the many games I saw them all play and the high level they were at.
His all around play is criminally underrated. He was so good with his back to goal, bringing others in to play and relieving pressure. Adored him as a red. The fact everyone else hated him so much only made me love him more.
Hé understand the game very well. I think ruud will become an Amazing coach.
He was also more technical than most penalty box strikers, underrated first touch and dribbling.
Nothing about this man is underrated you are just silly Brits
There it is, the stupid uNdErRaTeD comment about Ruud. Jesus Christ, watch him play full 90 minutes and not just highlights and you will know calling his all round play uNdErRaTeD is the biggest disrespect to him.
As a Liverpool fan is pains me to admit... but I was extremely jealous of Utd have this goal monster. What a fantastic player he was.
Tbf you lot had torres and Suarez
@@SK-ix8jb We did... But that was after Ruud left Utd. At that time we had Cisse and Baros. Torres didn't sign for us until 07 and I think RVN left for Madrid the year before.
@@jaytee444444 Did you not see Fowler at Liverpool? He was a very similar player
@@jamesthomas6164 Did I not see Fowler? Fowler is God! Of course I saw him. I also saw Rush, Aldridge, Dalglish, Barnes and Beardsley. What's your point? That doesn't take away what a special player RVN was and I along with the majority of other LFC fans would have loved him at Anfield.
I love rvn and I support liverpool. Rivalry is set aside for greatness.
As I die hard Arsenal fan of 35 years .. I have a huge respect watching this .. for the years of fierce battles and rivalry, it almost feel like watching family
Yeah Gooner here these guys had passion and fight incredible matches against these guys
For a 4, 5 year period at man utd he was absolutely lethal in front of goal. Great player and good guy.
Judes I echo every bit of this comment
those were the days hey...from a UTD fan!! Thee best PL rivalry.
Yea Idk why this is making me happy, I really thought I hated this guy haha
The man who made me fell in love with United. His rivalry with Henry for EPL golden boot was nice to watch
He is taller than Henry and comes from a more superior country than Henry so I can understand why you fell in ❤ love 😘😊
Top class player! And the players he mentioned and played with, gives me goosebumps. You don't get that these days
It is crazy how the ONLY goal he scored outside the box was against Charlton Athletic. Every other goal was inside the box, a real definition of a poacher. There was no better day in FPL when you had Henry AND Van Nistelrooy as your strikers. Mega.
Like Haaland now
was charlton though 😊
People forget that he also dribbled from inside his own half line past 4 defenders to score the goal he mentions against Fulham
@@TheSnkrPimp no interest in him.. cheating unlikable c
@@pitchforkcustomwe were decent back then mate, bit harsh.
Ruud van Nistelrooy. What a striker. 🇳🇱
Ruud Van Nistelrooy.. I started loving football & Manchester United because of him ❤
Love the respect he had for Stam, such a great player
As an Arsenal adoring Henry there was still a big fascination with RVN. What a machine
very different players. But rvn was a very clinical striker, classic poacher. I guess similar to Haaland today ish... can't think of any one else like him playing in the PL today
That makes me so happy to here an arsenal fan admitting to someone elses quality
@@devonhaigh6320 haha well it does happen. I think us older gunners, are pretty fair. Having been a season ticket holder, during that great rivalry of Sir Alex and Wenger, **now**, not then of course, I know what great players/sides utd had under Sir Alex. I actually defended Paul Scholes ! From young Chelsea and City fans in a football content channel chat the other day. They were saying he was overrated🤦♂ No clue some of these fans. Don't get me wrong, I always want to beat you guys and banter is a part of football culture. But I and some other Arsenal fans, do try to be fair.
Elite player. Truly elite. Never gets talked about among the PL greats but he is up there.
What a gentleman and a United legend. I will always remember as a kid seeing that celebration on his knees at the Stretford End. Pure passion, and lethal goalscorer
My childhood hero my love for United he was responsible for, my legend, my hero my icon! Ruud Van Nistelrooy! ❤
I thought he left united after a falling out with Ronaldo etc, had that impression he would have been bitter against both Ronaldo and Fergie, but it really isn't the case, he speaks VERY highly of the both of them and holds respect too. What a great guy, comes across very grounded and pleasant
He has class. No Piers Morgan interview for Ruud.
@@Scott-bh2qb no disrespect and lack of empathy during a tough personal time for rudd aswell
I noticed that too especially since he picked ronaldo to take the penalty of his life
Agreed. Rumours at the time were he wanted Ronnie to cross to him, and Ronnie wanted to shoot. There was a fight between the 2 at Carrington , and Fergie had to choose to keep one and sell one. He sold Ruud, and kept Ronnie.
@Peter Gillon apparently ruud had sed summit to cr7 regarding his father who at the time jus passed away which left cr7 in tears ....didnt fall well with SAF...who had no choice but to give ruud the boot
What a player. Still to this day, if the ball could fall to anyone in the box, in premier league history, it's Ruud every time. Most ruthless finisher I've ever seen.
one of the best players to have ever worn the real madrid jersey! loved how he played for us and goal scoring record was great too, unfortunate with alot of injuries
RM fan here. Yes he wasn't at RM as long as he was with MU, but he's an RM legend to me. After R9 but before KB9, he surely was one of the best No.9 RM ever had.
RM fan who has never been to Madrid or watched a Madrid match and most likely Indian
@@Southbeat217 Always love coming across m0ronic cnts like these who think being to Madrid qualifies them as somewhat superior. RM wouldn't be the commercial entity it is without global support, people buying merch, expensive tv deals to show the matches all over the world, etc. All the champions leagues trophies since the 7th one, bought with squads assembled from global commercialization money, RM wouldn't have. The truth is, Spain is a poor country, the poorest in one of the most prosperous regions of the world, and madrid the city couldn't rub two pennies together at the end of the day after buying food and paying off the bills. It's nothing without global fans. And as if your idi0cy required more exposure - the guy's username has ruiz in it, much more a spanish name than an Indian one.
@@Southbeat217why are you being racist? Why are you being salty? Facing the Indian heat?
That's ridiculous. Di Stefano, Puskas, Raul, Santillana and even Butragueño are miles ahead of Ruud as RM legends.
Absolutely
I loved watching the type of striker he became at Real Madrid, even with the doubters after the United fall out. He was 30 and had some amazing moments, both goals and assists. My favourite player ever.
Watching these 2 legends walking casually, chatting with fun, bringing up throwbacks is quit enjoyable 😊
Ruud picking Cristiano Ronaldo and appreciating his penalty skills is really a treat when you know that Ronaldo has said that during his early days at United, Ruud had shouted at him for showboating with the ball on the wing when he should be passing (to the striker - Ruud) or scoring. There is an interview out there where CR7 has said that this made him reflect on his play style and change for the better.
Ruud was basically bullying Ron and that's why he had to go. Fergie knew that Ron was going to be pivotal for our success.
Rudd was simply ruthless and I was gutted when he left us… But he went Madrid and won 2 leagues, proving he still had it, despite some doubters. Easily one of the best to ever wear the red shirt. Legend. Ruuuuuuuud! Great content!
I always remember that he had this great reputation before coming to United and it was clear Sir Alex was obsessed with him. Ruud really lived up to the hype when he came, absolute killer on the pitch. Just ruthless. Great to see him again.
❤
This man made me love football. Really appreciate what you’ve done for the game. Hala Madrid.
One of the most clinical finishers going. Absolutely love Ruud.
my thoughts exactly
Have got so much respect for Ruud. He had a beef moment with Christiano a while back at united but that didn't stop him mentioning him as his top answers. A real sportsman.
My favourite player as a kid, love him. Hope he’s involved with united somehow in the future
Was never as good as Mo Salah
@@tf2368 salah will never be as good as many other players so what’s your point
@@tf2368 well he was cos Salah wasn’t even about when he was
@@tf2368😂
@@tf2368 imagine coming on a video about a great player where 99 percent of the opposition fans praise him and spouting this nonsense well done lol
Spent 12 minutes grinning from ear to ear. As a boy growing up watching ruuuuud underneath those old Trafford lights was something magical!
Will always be my favourite United striker. Absolute master at finishing.
What a class act. So talented, top professional, role model. Seems like a really nice bloke too. We miss you Ruud! Come back to England and manage Bristol Rovers 👍🏻👍🏻
I still feel so blessed to have seen him play live (and you too Gary) when United came to Seattle in 2003. He scored a typical goal that day: taking the ball on the turn with a center-back draped all over him, but he was too quick and strong. One touch to turn and one to fire home at the near post. Bang. One of my favorite childhood memories.
Comes across like a top fella. I love how he’s so reflective and recognises his ability but also the mistakes he made. Superb. Legend.
That Milan defence/team was outrageous. Jaap Stam is so underrated in the sense that people often bring up Maldini and Nesta. But Jaap was also so essential for that Milan team and before that for United.
Sir Alex has admitted that moving him on when he did was a huge mistake. I think he might even have said it was his biggest regret as a manager. The man was incredible.
I'm pretty sure Ronaldo has nightmares about Cafu chewing gum and grinning on that wing. I've never seen anyone totally mute Ronaldo like Cafu did, and he was probably way into his 30s at that point.
Didnt win much though! Super Copa Italiana literally the smallest trophy to win during that defence period. AC Milan's defence was stacked on paper but didnt get results as in major trophies. Plus they were involved in Calcipoli during that period in Seria A and Coppa Italia.
Dida Cafu stam nesta maldini C'mon man put some respect on cafus name
@@naville82 lol wut😅
The player who made me fell in love with football. Thank you Ruud for all the memories. Legend.
Talk about "the loved enemy". Loved everything about this man, even in a United shirt. Even followed up on his transfer to Man UTD. Watched almost every international game he played, even friendlies. Followed him at Madrid (had some love for them already before though), then slightly at Malaga. Was very glad for that pen miss against us in that infamous moment (had quite some mixed feelings that day though, to be honest). Loved him then, even more now ( listening to him talk........ heavenly. God bless you, "Ruud Boy" (as I and my guys used to call him then).
Funny how people forget how he had a formidable career at Real Madrid after United. Him and Raul formed a formidabel striking partnership beating prime Ronaldinho, Eto’o, Deco etc for the La Liga title
I wouldn't call it a formidable career at Real Madrid. He had two good season, then he was injured for two whole seasons, then he left. Two years doesn't make a career.
@@GardEngebretsenlandraup spent 2 years at Madrid and is considered a legend there
No old Madridista forgot actually. He was the key in that title, remember?
@@GardEngebretsendoes not matter the number of season, Vini and Rodrygo leave Madrid now, but will still considered be legend. It is about the impact.
He was top scorer in La Liga in his first season there. Class act
So glad you did this with Ruud. As a United fan growing up in the 2000s he was my favourite footballer.
Tears in my eyes, man. Ruud is a legend.
It was a joy to live through that era of Arsenal v Man United with Ruud & Gary in the thick of it classic premier league moments
When he started speaking about that AC Milan line, I got instant flashbacks. What a defence that was, must've been absolutely terrifying.
What an unbelievable striker. My dad’s all time hero is Denis Law, and he says Ruud was the closest we’ve ever had to replicating him, and for Dave to say that is a testament to just how good Ruud was. More than a goal every other game for United (and Real), I’d argue that he could have been our all time scorer had he stayed a few more years. RUUUUUUDDDDDD
Loved that, what a legend. Thanks for the memories Ruud, it was always going to be the goal against Fulham.
Such a wonderfull interview, such down to earth guys. Rud is a legend!
What a wonderful player he was! He will always be fondly remembered as one of the greatest strikers of the beautiful game. Ruuuuuuuud :)
Favourite United player of all time. Almost guaranteed a goal every time he played. Monster! ❤
Thanks Mr Gary for bringing back of our dutchman again.Ruud Van nistrlooy was favourite player striker during your time who really inspired me with the clinical finishing of the goals always.
Love seeing Ruud lives pretty well, he's a legend a top notch goal scorer not many other like him.. he's just one of the king out there..
A true Man United legend!
Guy was lethal in the box. You always assumed he would put it away. Fantastic player
Was never as good as Mo Salah
@@tf2368 completely different type of player. Also Nistelrooy scored 95 in 150 games for Utd, salah has 129 in 206. Technically van nistelrooy had a better goals per game ratio at Utd.
@@tf2368 you’re a troll
@@mrpepperami01 Plus Ruud has like 56 goals in UCL in like 80 something appearances so that is one hell of a ratio and yeah elite really.
I remember Ruud not only being an absolute unstoppable striker at Manchester United but all the injury drama leading up to him finally making his debut. He was a perfect striker, absolutely brilliant. It always hurt that he left United on bad terms but it's great to know he rebuilt those bridges / relationships in later years. It may have damaged his legacy at the club slightly, but he is still adored by most Manchester United fans active during that era (I can't believe how much time has passed).
Why did he leave on bad terms???
@@devonhaigh6320 I believe he wanted to leave for Real Madrid immediately whereas Sir Alex wanted to keep him for another year or two years before allowing Ruud to leave. There was an argument but ultimately a few years later Rudd apologised, as Manchester United had stuck by Ruud through his injury dramas when perhaps lesser clubs may have given up and gone away. 6
My favorite striker of all time. I'm glad he shared the story with his grandfather, it really makes alot of sense when you remember how Ruud played, not much flash, just hard work and determination. It really sucks he missed out on the 2010 WC, that generation was so close to finally winning, with Sneijder, Robben, V. Persie, and co. I feel like Ruud could have added that little extra finishing touch that the Netherlands needed against Spain.
God, I love Ruud so much. A pure striker and goal hungry.
what a player he was.
Andy Cole was always my favourite player growing up, but damn Ruud was up there. Still remember his debut like it was yesterday, scoring two goals against Fulham, what a player
❤
What a player, what a guy, and what a legend🙏 we were lucky to witness him play😊
Ruud was proper goalscorer. Massive respect for this guy
Love Ruud. Was in the Stretty for the Fulham goal. What a player he was for us.
not enough is said about him by united fans. probably bc we won the ucl in '99 and '08 and was in between that. I watched him week in and week out. absolute legend. gave everything
We never got to know Ruud much while he was at United, so its nice to finally put a person to the player. And what a player.
It really comes across on camera how genuine Ruud is. Loved watching him at United
As a Tottenham fan he was a scary player to see the other side, he was so deadly and always in the right place at the right time. Great player.
Imagine a prime RVN now. One of the best penalty box strikers to play the game
I can remember when he was the Haaland of his time, utd legend, always remembered, bless you Ruud , what a striker, he could score just by looking at the ball.
Probably my favourite quick fire question segment on the overlap ruud seems like such a genuine and down to earth person!
He is one of the kindest people out there and so down to earth. Hope one day he will be managing a team in the PL. Doing well in Holland as a fresh new coach.
You seen PSV??
He's not doing well
That's a damn lie!! I'm a gooner though.
Kids these days will never understand how good Ruud was.
Previous Generation saw Van Basten, the one before saw Muller. This one sees Haaland, so everyone had a similar player in their era.
Kids have youtube !
@@NotBedTundy30 Bro just put Haaland in the same sentence as Van Basten and Gerd Muller

Indeed one of the greatest striker in history of football
Amazing questions once again, Ruud is such a legend and the memories he has given me as a youngster! Top guy!
Watching him in the 2004-2005 FA Cup Final is what made me a fan of the game and ultimately Manchester United. One of the most clinical marksmen I’ve ever had the privilege of watching.
You mean 2015 when they lost to Arsenal on penalties? This was also my first United game as a child, and made me a van Nistelrooy fan!
@@zigzagwanderer yes you’re right. I remember it so well because I was devastated when Vieira scored their winning penalty
Favourite memory of him was that celebration after scoring against Arsenal after missing the penalty previously. What a striker he was, and that Vodafone kit is still my favourite
As a Liverpool fan this interview was a joy to watch. I love watching Gary and Jamie as football pundits…..who’d have thought it ?
People often criticise both, but I have to admit, them too are always honest and refer back to different situations in their own careers very well. I'm also a big fan of Roy Keane, Micah Richards and Ian Wright as pundits. Where as people like Keown, Jenas etc are awful imo.
neville is a tool. always thinks he knows whats going on and is so biased and stupid he's an overpaid clown....you're welcome
I used to be a Gooner then moved to Tottenham so I believe I can't support Manu 😅😊
I started watching football and cheering for United because of him. Such a great lad and an outstanding footballer.
Ruud! One of my favourite ever man utd players. Ruuthless. Loved him as a player.
Legend for the club.
Ruud Van Nistelrooy: What a legend!
One of my favourite United players growing up. How did we not win more trophies during his time at the club?
The world doesnt create strikers like this anymore.. What a player he was.. Scoring consistently wherever he goes.

Grande Ruud!.Uno de los mejores delanteros que han pasado por el Real Madrid.
I remember his signing like it was yesterday. I remember it initially fell through at United and expected him to not perform as well as he did. He became a favourite at United. What a player he has.
What a player!
My absolute favorite striker growing up. What a man! Legend!
Wonderful striker and human being, Ruud is.
Ruud made me follow Manchester United. Great player.
