How Van Nistelrooy was OVERSHADOWED by Cristiano Ronaldo
COMMENT BELOW WHAT PLAYER I SHOULD DO NEXT.
How good was Van Nistelrooy actually? #GOAT
New episode of a documentary series where I plan to present all the greatest players of all time and then give them a score so a ranking of the best players can be created. In this episode we take on Van Nistelrooy who played for Man United and Real Madrid for most of his career, not only one of the greatest strikers of all time but one of the greatest players of all time. See how Van Nistelrooy ranks and just how good was he.
Best striker united have ever had. Towards the end he lost it a bit but his first seasons were unbelievable.
He was world-class. But he wasnt the best they ever had. Cantona, best, rooney. They were all different but atleast as good.
@@ricoriley1321 rooney had more longevity but wasn't as good in my opinion. Cantona and best were as good but they were different types of players. Not out and out strikers like ruud, van persie, cole, cavani etc
And now we play Martial and Rashford up front. It's a nightmare
@@cartours5803 lets leave cavani out of the group of players lol.
Mark Hughes and the Lawman are up there too.
As Roy Keane said when Ruud was through 1on1 he’d walk back towards his own half as he knew it would be a goal, Ruuuuuudddddd
Very rude indeed, he didn't even watch the goal being made! 😮
Wow he didnt go to celebrate with his teammate he was always a mean guy
@@darylthomas7317 that's his job! 😂
@@darylthomas7317 why would he sprint the whole way just to celebrate a goal.
He was an icon and a popular player at the time, too much competition for the ballon dor.
One of the best ive ever seen. Even in real madrid he was wow!
Ruud Van Nistelrooy is one of the best strikers ever. He was playing to the greatest teams of Europe (RMAD, MUTD) in his career. Very very great football player.
He was the one of the best at his era. It was a privalage to watch him.
I remember when RMA signed him I was pretty new to football and I’d never seen him play for United. I remember hearing how lethal he was but even then I was skeptical because of the fact that he was 30 years old, needless to say I was in AWE of this man during that 06/07 season, 25 goals in La Liga(pichichi winner) 33 in comps, and all while playing in a VERY poor Real Madrid team that really lacked service to their attackers. While his time in La Liga wasn’t that long, BOTH La Liga titles Madrid win his first 2 seasons were because of him, if it weren’t the severity of the injuries he picked, no doubt in my mind he would have dominated till his retirement. To this day I’ve never seen a striker be so lethal, if you gave RVN a SNIFF of a chance, that ball was going in.
I wish you and all our younger fans got to experience the treble, we were incredible from back to front top class
Injuries affected RVN and it didn't allow his career to last longer. His goals to game ratio was incredible.
Haaland is the new Nistelrooy. It is an honor being able to see both play.
@El Vaginhõs sure, he has a lot of time to grow though.
Haaland and ruud share a who lot of similarities
Palaand
@@evertonimata122152 premier league goals in his first season. Haaland is light years better
I don’t agree with this
Arguably the best natural finisher in Premier League history
I'm not sure who's arguing with you but they are wrong. The big question at the time was who was better, Ruud or Henry. Nowadays it seems like they aren't even thought of in the same bracket. Fair play, Henry was the more complete player, but when finishing Ruud is peerless. Henry would have disrupted Man Utd's style, Ruud was perfect for that team. Henry could have gone on the wing.
@andrewcarson5850 You probably didn’t watch enough football then Ruud is got to be one of the greatest finishers of all time definitely top 3 And I’m not shy to say he could top that list as the greatest finisher of all times Ruud have the scariest score per chance i have ever seen when he was signed with man United for 3 consecutive seasons If iirc it was 94% 90% 88% Something like Do you comprehend what this means ? Out of 100 chance he would score 94 of them in his first season with man United Henry was complete striker from passing to running to skill But in terms of finishing capability ruud was better Have ruud played in today era That normally played 4-3-3 How good he could have been having this type of support up front
I've noticed how alot of these great player start off their careers in Holland. Remember Ruud from his early days at United. He was a goal machine for United
In the Dutch, French and Portuguese leagues, youngsters get more minutes and the competition is decent.
Honestly Gerd Mueller scored every 45 Minutes, what a legend!
Greatest scorer ever played the game
Played for one of the most dominant domestic sides ever in bayern. Still disgusting the numbers he put up tho.
Excellent video, people need to know really how good Van was, I grew up watching him an he is an will always be one of my top 5 fav players
1 of the best Striker M.Utd ever got, this is from a Liverpool fan!
Liverpool fan here to.. but also PSV fan where i saw him live... VanTheMan
In 50/50's he had an outrageous ratio of winning them and he'd pretty much score every time with his first touch, Deadly!
He was worldwide known. He was on the cover of fifa
He was my idol during my high school years. Always like his way of finishing.
I had a date once in a restaurant. Just a nice family restaurant in the forest were we eat pancakes in the netherlands. After sitting there for about 15 minutes all of a sudden RVN walked in with his family. I never realised how tall he really is.
Red Devil. Well done. Another good video. Well researched and delivered.
Red Devil!!!! One of the greatest on a era of greatest players.
Great video! But he "didn't strive much for aesthetics"? There's so many beautiful goals in this video alone.. And the term "problematic" really only applied to his knee. RvN is generally considered super kind and easy-going!
What a killer he was. Thanks for these vids on awesome players.
He was as good as one can get inside the box... Gave us a few good seasons..
This is so well made😯😯😯
I like the effort you put in pronouncing the name Ruud van Nistelrooij. Pretty hard name for a foreigner to pronounce.
So it’s hood van nisterhooi ?
@@daddymonyet Nah it’s pronounced like “Rùùd vàn Nistelrooy”
@@rens7522 i just hear from 0:18 😄
Van Nistelrooy: I fear no man, but that thing...( Cr7 ) It scares me 😂
I somehow understand how it went into his head, I mean he was doing a fantastic job and then he met the guy that would replace him... way too soon
@@gropatapouf5998 ruud and ronaldo didn't play in the same position
😂
Ruud was frustrated CR7 can't provide the same crosses Beckham did.
@gropatapouf5998 Lmao cr7 is amazing player but he’s nothing like ruud when it come to finishing Plus at that time cr7 played as winger He developed the striker later in his career But even then he misses a lot compared to ruud
Nice information in your videos.
Enjoying the channel and points system! Future vids if possible of Matthaus, Rijkaard, Redondo, Michael Laudrup, Boban
I'll go over everyone eventually
@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT rivaldo please next
Love this vid
Great vid
I swear this guy had ice in his veins🥶 And I’m not even capping
The record is even more impressive when you look at the Calibre of teams around them. That was a good united team with one of the best managers in history and they’re. Wing knocked of of QFs
This man manipulated the offside rule incredibly. Best finisher I've ever seen next to Raul Gonzalez
Good point. He used to stand offside at freekicks before the ball was hit then move right on the edge of the defender before the ball was hit
Was sure of great pleasure to have watched this man play
He was ruthless in front of the goal back then
Had to trim out a bit of the video at 7:00 due to issues with copyright, I just mentioned that he moved to real Madrid and was top scorer of la liga in that time
One of THE best finishers ever......
Do one for Andy Cole goes a little under the radar. He scored a lot of good goals and was easy on the eye🙃
Good video❤️
Amazing video of o è of the best strikers in history!!!
Only if we could get a striker of this calibre at Manchester United again
You have Cavani, you just have a shit team that doesn't see his runs and feed him the ball
@@RB-cs5dw lets be honest, cavani has never been anywhere near as good as ruud
@@Butterpants1987 yes but still deadly as fuck
say no more
@@mohibullahshahid6741 who are you referring to if you say Ronaldo or Cavani they are in their 36 and 34 not prime to say the least
Packed this guy in my base or mid icon pack and I couldn't be more disappointed
Same here
Under 1k views you deserve more
Some videos have been blowing up lately who knows maybe this one will too one day
now its over 100.000
@@TheSuperhoden ahah indeed funny
Can you do Roy makaay soon please. How him and valeron single handedly turned deportivo into a Spanish and European force and his career at Bayern Munich. Thanks.
What through life vídeos. Muito bem puto. Que vídeos. Tens o conhecimento, por favor trabalha o sotaque. Brilhante!
Love your videos, pls do a video about Zidanes career
Hell get a 1 hour special one of my all time favorites
Oh gosh. He was my favorite during school times
red devil. guess you're from Portugal? nice series of videos. obrigado my friend
good one mate
Thanks!
Really interesting stats. Goals per minute on the pitch is the best stat for strikers - well done. I never realised how prolific RVN was, but he was a great poacher and made a load of unexpected goals, where you don't realise he's going to shoot there.
My first football jersey was a Man Utd Vodafone jersey with Nistelrooys name in the back... This guy and his goals single handedly created a generation of Man United fans.
Ruud van Nestrooy he was my best striker and is a legend
The guy was a Rudd awakening whenever he faced opposition clubs.
his name is ruud
@@TheSuperhoden There's always one! 🤦🏻♂️
@@Easy_Now_Star what ?
A few editing problems bud that disrupt the narrative. Still a great video, thanks.
I love how he manages to misspell the name in different ways each time lol Ruud van Nistelrooij
Writing Rudd and pronouncing Goed in the first minute :D. Spending many hours in making a nice video, but spending some seconds for just having the name right would have made it much better.
He never misses in the box
He was really good at putting the ball into the back of the net once he received it in the penalty box
wat a striker loved watchin him
That team was pretty cool, Beckham, Rooney, Ronaldo, Gigs, Scholes, van Nistelrooy, Van der Sar etc etc etc
One of the most funny and intriguing thing from this video is the intro: "In 1976 a boy was born..." The exactly same day another Dutch legend was born, Patrick Kluivert. But their career was exactly the opposite. Kluivert was the magical kid from a very young age. Remember, he was only 18 when he scored the winning goal in the CL final 1995 against AC Milan. At the same time Kanu was also playing for Ajax and he had the same age. And let's not forget about El Fenômeno, the real Ronaldo. Playing for PSV Eindhoven that same period and once again, only 18. Just mind-blowing if I look back on that phase of my teenager life in NL But the career of Ruud van Nistelrooy was totally the opposite. Starting from the bottom to the absolute top. Probably the best goal scorer ever in Dutch football history Thanks to all these legends and the memories they gave me and many others 🙏
The best goal poacher ever in history
Do one for the Phantoms ROY MAKAAY, there's too many legends that go unnoticed and have played for small clubs but have made it hard for big teams. Continue on with the good work, there's work to be done but it's a work in progress You have Falcao and halland 😂😂 might as well give credit to greater legends of before! Don't forget Bernd Schneider!
0:21 Ruud not Rudd ;) great channel btw..
probably the best finisher of all time. I'd give him 12/10 for finishing
RvN is the most lethal striker of 2001 - 2007. Nobody comes close to him as a pure out out striker. Fox in the box, penalty king.
saudades desse brucutu goleador, na minha seleção do FIFA era sempre o 9. Ele e Adriano
Have you done hugo sanchez? If not, do one about him please
Lethal .awesome player
im in Botswana and i have always known him. and he is very popular
Too good.. ^^
Please do a video on Dennis Bergkamp
Bro you're gonna make it far, I'm subbed from 900. I believe
Hope so! fingers crossed
Great finisher van the man
"2 goals in the last 3 mins in the LeagueCup to rescue them in the first round". I believe he's talking about the FAcup game vs Villa at VillaPark when we won 2-3 from 2-0 down.
I love your videos mate I really do but the way you grade players is bad. I mean Ibra so low, he is still one of the best out there. I totally think that people dont need the point system to evaluate somebody your video alone with the history of someone's career is enough to get the value he needs. Keep on the good job on videos! I would love to see a video of Giovanni (played for Barcelona,Olympiacos) and of Juan Sebastian Veron or Pablito Aimar
His first touch is magnificent.... no doubt...
About his dribbling and flair 😂😂 So true tho.
Next video Recommendation-Video on tony Adams Plzzzzzzzzz
Can you do inzaghi next
I never liked him, but he is one of the most natural finishers I've ever seen. For me he's up at the top with Vieri
- Van Nistelrooy - Rooney - Van per Sie - Tevez - Berbatov My top 5 fav striker ever for Man Utd since I become their fans in 2003, now everything has change, I miss my old days 😭😭
No Welbeck?
Messi and Ronaldo operated in freeer roles and also set up gosls, so it's deceptive to use minutes between goals to compare RVN was mostly a killer in the box.
I remember the way he peaked during mid 00s, although he wasn't that very talented but he was a goal machine, only player who reminds of this stuff now is Haaland pretty ironic now that he plays for their rivals man city
As United fan, it's still sour when he left for Real Madrid. But understandable as Ferguson making ways for Rooney & C.Ronaldo.
Van Niksterooy has massive respect to Ronaldo and so as Ronnie two oft eu best finisher of all time
Pretty damn good.
He was excellent like all the Dutch forwards
Underrated player
Robert Prosinečki, please. It's a must...at least for me.
tough to get people to watch it but might make it, one of few to play for barcelona and real madrid
Goal machine
he would be my striker in an all time great united team and he had some competion for that
I'm actually upset, I left England in 2k and I could only read about united at the time...... Damn I would have loved to watch live in a local pub
Where are u from? Really like to know because of your accent
keep working hard !
always
Thumbnail looks like a vampire
The best striker Man United had. Shoud be playable legend player in Pro Evolution Soccer @konami take note

Best man Utd striker ever 👍
The best finisher in the history alongside Eusébio and Puskas
my favourite dutch striker, his name is not Rudd tho my friend xD
My best football player ever. The Dutch lion, Ruud Van Nistelrooy ✨✨⭐
