@@ShawnKavanaghya he’s still sixth in the all time scoring records for champions league ahead of players like Shevchenko, Muller, Thierry Henry, Inzaghi, Di Stefano, Eusebio, Augero, Drogba, Del Pierro, Trezeguet, Cavani, G. Muller, Rooney and Suarez
The best centre forward I've ever seen in my life. Never switched off always first to react to a save a deflection a rebound. Always in the right place for a pass or cross. Always seemed to have space in the box and had the skill to make space. First touch was excellent second touch was usually a goal. His off the ball running was as relentless as it was intelligent and the only thing quicker over 10 yards was his brain. The way he could dig the ball out from under his feet and get a sweet contact is underrated the way he could chip the keeper from 10 yards is too. Never scuffed or miss hit a shot he was surgical with his finishing and he would go in 50/50 with his head. As a striker he was pure devastation. 🔥
@@elmarnigmatullin4490 He hits it with such power and accuracy that even if the keeper guessed correctly they wouldn't saved it. Only time i knew he changed directions was against Newcastle and Arsenal which he hit the bar in the EPL.
His chest control skill was underrated. When people talked about Ruud they talk about his positioning and his finishing but rarely say anything about chest control who was as good as Fellaini.
And his hold up play and strength to hold off players to allow the midfielders and wingers to push up he’d get it out wide to them and run into the box and get on the end of everything Scholes and Beckham kicked in towards him lethal

What a player! So happy he’ll be working with Holjund, Zirkzee and other forward players at Manchester United in the coming season. Hopefully the players keep their heads down and work hard, the goals will come.
The best goalscorer I've ever witnessed! Ruud have all these insane records and he had some serious injuries, my fav player,if he stayed in utd he would've been the record holder! He scored 150 goals in 5 seasons "i should say 4 cuz he missed 5 months on one of them" i wished he won the ucl thats why i wanted him to stay at utd.. thank you for this vid!
We should have won the 2004 ucl if not for Howard's blunder and scholesy disallowed goal ruined that dream. Its a bit of travesty that ruud didn't win many more honours with us. The guy deserve so much more after all the goals he scored for us.
@@afiq358 i completely agree! 2004 was for the taking! Paul's disallowed goal changed everything unfortunately.. i truly believed we would win it, ruud didn't come in our absolute best but in our transition period, thats why i wished he stayed till 2010 at least he would've won much more
@@footballchannel8430 Milan defeated by Deportivo and Arsenal defeated by Chelsea that season. If man united won against Porto, their next campaign is Lyon, Deportivo, and Monaco. Way better route than Monaco who defeat Madrid and Chelsea that season
Remember watching goal 24 on a small philips TV with the aerial on top of the TV, trying to get as good as picture as possible from all the static.. how things have changed
Beckham was obviously a great passer but that doesn't mean you just give him credit for anything, you know that wasn't intentional he didn't even know the ball went to him lol
it was an honor❤ to see him manage us for just a few game unbeaten!🤩 He was such a good player in the 2000s for Utd just a shame he fell out with Ferguson🥲He loved the club so much💗 One of the greats🐐
Ruud's heading ability is so underrated and never discussed much. The amount of power he could generate on a ball that had hardly any pace on it (and many times was just a chip up) was astonishing. Most other strikers would barely reach the keeper with some of those efforts, never mind land it in the net.
van Nistelrooy had everything you wanted as a striker. PSV had many great strikers in the passed, like the two Brazilian mega stars Ronaldo fenomeno and of-course Romario. And for the Dutchies of-course Luc Nillisen :)
looking at how he played in 98/99 , he was good enough to be in uniteds squad then and start I wished united kept him for a few more years , left to early in my opinion
Initially, there was report stated most goals from Ruud Van Nistelrooy were scored in penalty area is a kind of mocking, now I know that it wasn't easy especially when compare to most strikers nowaday.
when i was younger, i loved him but cant understand what makes him special other than good finishing. today years old, i learn that it's his first touch to set himself up.
And to think VAR would have scratched off half of those goals for marginal offside, high boot/dangerous play, foul in the build up etc. Honestly VAR is such a disease, impossible to celebrate a goal until kick off of the opposing team in the centre circle.
one of the best striker of all times. As a united supporter, i'll pick nistelrooy on my greatest 11st eleven striker alongside van persie. both are better than andy cole, cantona in my opinion
7:017:13 ELE ENCOBRIU O GOLEIRO, COM UM TOQUE, COM A PONTA DO PÉ VIRADO PRA CIMA, DE 1°, & QUE, VEIO DE UM LONGO LANÇAMENTO, VEIO DE UM GRANDE CRUZAMENTO!
Ruud was my childhood hero! 3 times CL top scorer. Absolutely lethal!
I only really followed him with Man U. Loved his style with that transitional misfit team. Didn't realize he scored so many CL goals.

His penalties 😍 I love the way he just smashes them with such accuracy
And always to his left besides number 39, if you noticed

One of the best strikers in the world during his peak years. He makes finishing look easy. Loved him at United.
Ruud Van Nistelrooy vs Thierry Henry, they are both of beauty EPL 2001-2006 the best striker!
I'm a Man U fan and loved RVN, but I have to admit the better all round player was Henry. Pure finishing perhaps RVN sneaks it...but that's about it.
Sheva!!
@@chalkdirtytome x2 as man utd fan. henry was better dribbler, free kick taker and passer. RVN also didn't have much long shots
@@Азамат92-л1у Shevchenko ?
Drogba?
Most clinical striker man united ever had.
Funny that he is not the most clinical striker PSV ever had :))
💯
Most clinical striker in football history
@@badsolja1 No. See Romario.
Cr7
He was always in the right place at the right time..an underrated attribute in football nowadays.
What a striker and that Ruud Van Nistelrooy jersey with no. 10 😍
Lies again? Dutch Master
thank you rudd for great memories as a player and as a coach.... will love to see you at OT in future... best of luck
The first goal perfectly explains why he's my favourite striker of all time (with Ronaldo de Lima). So fast, so on time, so calm. Pure magic.
His first 2 season at United, he was lethal ! Team playing style really suit him, when Becks left and Ronaldo came, Ruud became less effective
The way Beckham linked up with ruud was something else ,with his timing and movement combined with Beckhams consistent delivery it guaranteed goals
My most favorite player, even until now i think MU need CF like him, fast, hard, and precision, very spectacular.
What a player
he had incredible vision of the field + awesome positional skills ! Great player ! tnx Ruud !
A true Striker. Always look spectacular If he Scores. One of the best Strikers in History
His chest control skill was underrated. When people talked about Ruud they talk about his positioning and his finishing but rarely say anything about chest control who was as good as Fellaini.
you don't see that much these days, good chest control. most will just use their feet to control the ball
dont compare rvd to that clown
Lehmann always had the best chest control. Alisha that is
And his hold up play and strength to hold off players to allow the midfielders and wingers to push up he’d get it out wide to them and run into the box and get on the end of everything Scholes and Beckham kicked in towards him lethal

most one of difficult position and he finishing with beautiful goal
He literally had the perfect skill as a striker.. so clean finishing
What a beast

a true legend of Man U!
Nistelrooy was one of the most lethal strikers ever, when he gets the ball in the box you know he will find the back of the net.
Van The Man! Van Gol! ⚽🔥
He side foots so many goals and his posture right before the shot is so iconic
Class 🙌
Always a goal threat
The Goal Machine
He had explosive pace when necessary, tall, strong, cold blood finishing hability, aways on the ball, aways well positioned...what a joy to watch !
7:05 Simply legendary!
Remember watching goal 24 on a small philips TV with the aerial on top of the TV, trying to get as good as picture as possible from all the static.. how things have changed
Idk why i love every his penalty taken
That no look pass of David Beckham at goal number 10 is higly underrated.
Beckham was obviously a great passer but that doesn't mean you just give him credit for anything, you know that wasn't intentional he didn't even know the ball went to him lol
Siempre un fenómeno Ruud
Next... Andry Shevchenko please !!!
For me, he is the most intelligent striker
Not only he was one of the best strikers ever, but also built like a tank, possessed great dribble and vision of the game
11:16 the look on his face as he jumps to head in for the hattrick...the man lived to score goals 🫡
2:27 "no look" assist by Becks 😂
one of the best to ever do it
it was an honor❤ to see him manage us for just a few game unbeaten!🤩
He was such a good player in the 2000s for Utd just a
shame he fell out with Ferguson🥲He loved the club so much💗
One of the greats🐐
A legend
Best finisher ever
Whoever the striker is, if your tandem is Luc Nilis, be prepared to be a great striker..
And I really like the 90s attack duos
*The best finisher in history. One of the best striker of all time.*
Nah, R9 is a better finisher than him
@@user-jn4mh1rh9l you have a great understanding of game really mate you are actually very right
@@wakaikozy6084 no. you have never seen Ruud play then.

Great point, his heading technique was superb...
Not only that, but so was his dribbling.
THANKS
Best United striker this century
What goal machine Ruud was....
Greeting Dutch player 🇳🇱🇳🇱. Good luck for the match of tommorow agaist the Rangers Glasgow
Great player. He was absolutely fantastic and very strong.
Was always in the right place at the right time
Van Nistelrooy 😍

Luc was Belgian though right?
Um dos melhores da história do futebol‼️Esse holandês era muito goleador 🇳🇱 Orgulho de ter assistido esse cara jogar🔥🤘🏻🇧🇷

Goal 24 is my favourite ❤
Initially, there was report stated most goals from Ruud Van Nistelrooy were scored in penalty area is a kind of mocking, now I know that it wasn't easy especially when compare to most strikers nowaday.
That lob goal against Steaua was great
Meu melhor centro avante de todos os tempos 🇳🇱🙆♂️👏👏👏👏
Era pemain tahun 2000 an top Markotop 👍😁
That no look hip pass by Beckham was so genius.
Barthez and Wes Brown though smh. Fun but stressful game.
at 2:27 ... it's brilliant...
😆
The good old days when 9s were raw goal poachers.
An absolute legend. The best striker of his generation. Definitely more skilled than Shevchenko
LEGENDE RUUD VANISTEL ROOY MANCHESTER UNITED

3:13 Kahn went for the knee injury here, knowing of Ruud's past
The fact he’s my favorite striker of all time at Utd says it all
Important lesson, always in right timing... Make no mistake.. Full or slow just score
I love Ruud, A GOD STRIKER
لايوجد مهاجم بهذه الكفاءة العالية والدقة رود فان نيستلروي أفضل مهاجم في كل العصور على الإطلاق
10:23 10:45

This guy 🔥
Next please make Henry and Raul it’s good for us young generations to see what they were about
I agree Raùl was so good in CL.
Van Goal
one of the best striker of all times. As a united supporter, i'll pick nistelrooy on my greatest 11st eleven striker alongside van persie. both are better than andy cole, cantona in my opinion
Goal nr 8 by 2 legends.
Ruud was great but Luc was special.
Ruud Ruud Ruud Ruud..
Love U Ruud❤️❤️❤️

He sent the keeper where he peeped and put it on the other side 😂
1-июля 1976-года в Голландии родились два прекрасных нападающих: Рууд ван Нистелрой и Патрик Клюйверт.

MENTIRA QUE ELE FEZ ISSO!
Great non annoying music
Great finisher so hungry for goals didn’t let defenders rest. Now we don’t even have a striker half as good as him.
the first players are all neat
Ruud over Haaland any day for me.
Is True Striker. Amazing Ruud.
How I wish I could go back 4/11/1998
the best no 9 ever, inzhagi next level
Criminally underrated, when he was through you didn't even have to question where the ball would end up
Only an idiot would say he's underrated.
What's next? Shearer is underrated?
The Man United USA tour of 2003 Summer had some of his most deadly swivel/ shoot goals
