[Albion] Ruud van Nistelrooy for manager ?

[dwayne]

I see the gentleman is in the running for Leicester job.

I don't know much about his style of play but he did well at PSV (not difficult I guess)

Worth an interview for us surely.

Ticks a few boxes

1) sexier than cooper .... Face a little long
2) Dutch. Dutch coaches are awesome.
3) big name.

 

[zefarelly]

I think I'd be feeling a litte Hoarse having to sing such a long name for long

 

[Hugo Rune]

Trot on @dwayne.

"Ticks a few boxes"

Put him in the box and he will probably still score a handful!

A paragraph from a NY Times article about RVN.

“What is important for Van Nistelrooy is that his teams are attacking and dominant on the ball,” said the tactical analyst Marc Lamberts about Van Nistelrooy’s side last season. “For Van Nistelrooy, it’s of extreme importance to have control of possession and making sure you always have an overload against a pressing opposition. So you are playing against a 4-2-3 or a 4-3-3; they will likely press the central defenders with their striker and their 10.”

Only ever lost 8 games out of 50 as well !! And beat Ajax 4 times in a row

Left PSV in similar circumstances to RDZ citing frustration at the club’s inability to compete in the market. Selling Madueke, to at the time, mid table Chelsea being an example. He has good management stats but perhaps should have done even better given Ajax’s decline started during his spell.
Not a bad shout though.

 

[Han Solo]

More likely to go with Giovanni van Bronckhorst with 9 years of experience than van Nistelrooy who haven't done a single full season as a manager.

I think Feyenord have been ultra competitive recently under new Liverpool boss Arne Slot, I don’t think it’s been a one horse race.

 

[Taybha]

He's no Esteban Koopar is he.

 

[Weststander]

With Keown, Lauren and Parlour as his assistants.

It’s a yes from me.

 

[B-right-on]

Blimey. He's been a manager for nearly 10 years. Not as a high level, doesnt seem 5 mins since he was at Man U.

Left PSV because of lack of support - sounds perfect

 

[pigmanovich]

Would be Ruud not to give him a look in

 

[veuve]

Interesting.

Horse box?

 

[Pavilionaire]

I could see him becoming our MANE candidates. I like his TACKtics.

[kevo]

This would be an absolute MARE
