Can we get Arjen Robben as his assistant 

Rene Meulensteen seems more likely.

[Chrysalis]

Cant see us staying up without a big splurge in January, but I will back him as a manager the same way I gave Cooper time.

[bridport007]

I have been so bored for ages with our team. I just want to see us go for it again!  I get it that RVN is meant to be inexperienced as a manager, but what I saw when they spanked our arse, and how he reacted was something I envied! If we lose 5-4 then at least we gave it a go! Schmoking! Come on Ruud !!

Imagine the poor bastards face when he sees Daka up close and personal in training for the first time.

probably call security and have them remove some twat whos broken into Seagrave.

Dutch Lampard

… you might be right. 

[J. James]

He'll enliven the squad

He'll excite the fans

He'll get us in the top six

He'll turn Daka into a goalscoring monster

 

*One of these is very, very, very unlikely

** clue- it's not the third one.

[tsintskaro]

I was hoping for Potter but it is what it is

At least I will be more excited to watch a game than I was under Cooper

Welcome Ruud! You're in for one hell of a job

 

Needs backing in January 

Sorry, I read that as "Needs sacking in January ".

I was thinking "bloody hell! Give him a chance!"

 

[Genesis1]

Wouldn't be surprised to see him recall Cannon in January and send Edouard back. Doing well and I can't imagine he'd be worse than Daka. Fully expect to see Vestergaard back in the mix somewhere.

 

Really excited to see his first team sheet and who he'll try to sign in January.

Really not feeling this. Feels like an owner who grew up watching early 2000s footy and is excited he recognises a name. Just glad Rooney is already employed. 

Why, whats wrong with Rooney?

 

*Answers in less than 5000 words please. 😐

[bridport007]

Hope he brings his boots 😳

[SK3Blue]

Vardy when he first greets RVN and reminds him he broke his record. 
 

 

[Corky]

Don't think anyone is deluded and think our squad isn't one of the poorest so it is a tough job. Cooper got it wrong by not playing the best team and being too passive. 

 

I genuinely think if we have a go the fans will be more accepting.

Talks in the summer according to Tavolieri. 

 

Odd. 

I think it shows who Top really wanted in the summer if he was not happy with Cooper but he put his belief in his staff. Further proof that he is taking charge of things this time round.

[Kierzz]

I think he can build a good attack but I'm not sure if I'm convinced he can sort out our very dodgy defence which is leaking goals.

 

Hopefully RVN will prove me wrong...

Exactly. If we at least play like we want to win then that would be a great start.

Jonny Evans said in a recent interview “Ruud is obsessed with defensive structure on the training pitch”, which bodes well

[JonnyBoy]

The feeling around this compared to when cooper was announced is chalk and cheese 

 

back the bloke and something at last to get excited about - a feeling none of us have had for a while 

[Wymsey]

He had been down at Seagrave for some course training a few times earlier in the year.

Exactly how I feel too. I suddenly look forward to going again.

Once he’s seen what defenders he’s got to work with he will probably change his mind and just try to outscore teams

Fans play a bigger part than some in the club might think 

[dmayne7]

Just reading about the fallout at PSV and really doesn't sound great at all. Hope there was a lot more to that or it's a load of rubbish, otherwise that's quite concerning.
