Ruud Van Nistelrooy Post Match vs Fulham

 

Similar to Wednesday?

RvN: “No. I don’t agree. Today was extremely disappointing because it wasn’t good enough in all aspects of the game. I saw more Wednesday than today. Of course results hurt and are disappointing, but today there was a lot more because we lacked in too many areas that influence on winning a football match.”
 

Reaction to chants against board and boos for your sub?

RvN: “That one I noticed (boos for El Khannouss sub). It’s okay. You have to accept it and I am. I’m making substitutions to impact the game. It can be in different areas, physical, profile of a player, the opposition. When it’s not received well for once now then I’ll take that one.”
 

How to build confidence back up?

RvN: “It’s good to have a couple of days to reflect and come back. We have a full week, more, towards the next game. We need it to recover physically and mentally from this game today.”
 

Why were team so far off it today?

RvN: “It’s something we have to look back on and think about. At this moment, I don’t have the answers for that.”
 

You said club were offering transfer support in January. That still there?

RvN: “Yeah, because we welcomed a new player in a position that we needed. We only have one right-back in the squad and he has to play everything. That’s a good start. We continue to look for the players to strengthen the squad in the possibilities.”
 

Want more than one new player?

RvN: “Of course, you want as many as you can. We have to face reality and do it within the possibilities. We’re trying very hard to do so.”
 

Specifically why did you bring El Khannouss off?

RvN: “Because the crowd boo one substitution of me, it doesn’t mean I have to explain all the reasons behind the substitution. It’s not for the public to know. It’s respect to the players who come on. They are valuable members of the squad and deserve minutes to help this team as well. It’s not about one person in this team and in this squad. That for me is very clear.”
 

Coulibaly missing?

RvN: “The paperwork wasn’t ready yesterday so he couldn’t train the day before a game. It’s not possible to include him in the squad. But he will be there next week.”
 

Conceding second-half goals - why?

RvN: “For me, it’s about today. The disappointment is big because we lacked in all aspects of the game and that’s before, in the other games that I’ve managed. Today is the most disappointing one for me.”
 

Worried the players might be affected by toxicity?

RvN: “We have to deal with it. We cannot change it. We have to face it. Don’t feel sorry for anybody. We are professionals and we have to deal with it. We have to make sure that we perform so the crowd is up and supportive. That’s our task. There’s no other excuse or explanation necessary. It’s up to us and sometimes you deserve criticism and you have to accept it because it wasn’t good enough and do better next time."
 

Toxicity not helpful?

RvN: “We cannot change it. In the moment, if something happens like that, it’s only a sign, for us as a team, as a squad, as a coaching staff and manager, to stick together more than ever. That is key to survive.”

 

 

I'm sorry to say this really does read like he doesn't know how to fix the issues we've been seeing. Alarming.

Faes comes off smiling. Absolute doesn’t care less 

 

Unfortunately for him I think that's just his natural facial expression.

We are never winning a game again when you only have Bilal, Soumare and VK up for the fight

Soumare could be seen casually jogging back many times. He's only looking competent by comparison to what's around him!

I’m fed up of feeling livid now when we play. There’s bare minimal effort but absolutely zero fight especially when we go behind. 

Look at us, a big city and decent sized club being made fools of by likes of Brentford, Bournemouth, Fulham….

We were one of these clubs not so long ago, Leicester was who every club want to be.

Unfortunately  I called it 0-0 at home with an instant capitulation  straight after.

Only positive  is I called it 0-3!!!

Pathetic again

These are dark, dark days. You lot who are allowed in the ground - make a proper stand against this.

The only one showing good work rate was El Khannouss and he took him off first.

he changed formation to 4-4-2 again and feels Bilal can't play as a midfielder in a 2, you could argue that he pulls ayew and puts bilal out wide

Cracked me up when Faes sarcastically applauded the crowd for groaning.

 

Bloke is a complete whopper with zero self awareness.

Kasey blew his cheeks out wide eyed when the crowd boos went up for Ayew… who was smiling to himself with a little head shake himself.

 

Zero accountability from this lot.

My prediction was correct before the game. Plenty of backwards tippy tappy shit but ultimately getting beat. 

 

I don't actually see any sort of attacking intent. There was a glimpse when we went 2 down but literally for 5 mins only. Even when two down the two centre backs were just knocking it to each other instead of going direct or just attempting to break the lines. 

 

We simply don't look like scoring kwt alone winning a game.

Most hateful bloke we have had at the club since Dennis wise.

While I've been browsing this thread, an advert banner came up for an "Adopt a Donkey" one.

 I considered emailing the club to say I can't possibly take all 11...
