Ruud van Nistelrooy - New Manager - Official

[djskydiver]

Gone by easter if it carries on like this

[Brooksy]

He's ****ing useless

[coolhandfox]

No manager is going to do anything with these fullbacks, wingers and the best CF is 38.

[DZ-LCFC]

HE IS GOOD 

 

OUR PLAYERS ARE SHIT

Playing your best player might help though

A 38yo who is playing full 90. Injury incoming!

[Vestan Pance]

The manager doesn't matter.

 

Rudkin out.

[Kuredufox]

Not him, certain players are shit.

[Skidmark]

Statistically worse than Steve Cooper.

[Levi Port]

Not his fault at all, we did well today, missed chances and gave away a goal. That’s on the players, couple of them threw that game.

El Khannouss played.

[Gazza M]

4 points from 7 games. If it was Cooper he would be being hounded out by now. Can't legislate for continued defensive mistakes. Bin them off and change shape for example. 

[honeybradger]

Kind of have to stick with him now.

[winteriscoming]

We appointed a name instead of getting an experienced manager. Urs Fischer or Niko Kovac would have been my preferred choice and still are. 

[Soar Fox]

Got the job on the basis of beating a very poor….. Leicester city team twice 

 

He’s worse than Cooper, can see him walking by March

[chapero82]

We tried to be cheap twice with managers this season and it has cost us massively

Its a results game and a new manager losing 5 on the bounce is shocking can't belive its being defended on here. 

 

Yes cooper wasn't perfect he definately would have picked up more points in the last 5 games. 

 

RVN is getting us relegated if he stays. Can't waste another gane on him. 

[ARM1968]

Hope we stick with Ruud for the long haul. In the words of a song we need to rip it up and start again frankly. Team is utter dross.

It’s inexcusable to not start Facundo over Ayew. 

[CloudFox]

I think he's actually starting to lose me. I still don't see a style of play, we can't defend, and we barely create anything. He's been handed a poor hand with injuries and some fixtures, which is why I am still hoping he can turn it around...but 5 defeats on the bounce with no sign we'll win a game any time soon? Not good.

[LFox99]

We were on our way to picking up a point away at Villa by playing some decent stuff.

It's tough to deal with a wonderstrike and a calamity at RB whose only replacement is a drink driving, cheating, faux social justice warrior.

And was shocking. 

[HesNotGudjonsonn2]

People will be comparing RVN and Cooper based on results but I think it is important to give a manager a transfer window to give him the chance to find the solutions. Cooper could have improved this defense or team as a whole in the summer and he didn’t! That was his biggest failure.

[Tommy Fresh]

We were right to get rid of Cooper, but based on this run they've gone and appointed another dud. 

[cityfanlee23]

Players are awful, he's not convincing me he can fix the basics, he needs reinforcements but there have been very few signs IMO. 
Can't see the defence not even slightly improving under someone like Moyes, he would have likely shored us up a bit. We look as clumsy as ever, in fact at times even more clumsy and yet the attack is still spineless. There have been a few moments where we look like we are trying to make a system work, but honestly, overall we are not really any better than under Cooper. Signings won't save us unless we are going to spend 150m on 7 positions. 
At some point Ruud has to improve what we already have.
