Fantastic. So much love for Ruud.
The reason I'm excited is not because he's some briliant manager, but because he's a United man. I think that's important because not everyone seem to understand the pressure playing for/coaching at United. I'll also add that it's very hard to judge how much involvement the assitants have. We saw that with McKenna and Carrick (not that either one of them are United manager material per se).How can people still get excited by interims that were ex players.
I’m convinced people are just judging Ruud based on his poise and the aura he gives off. There are so many posters who speak of Ruud as if he’s some coaching sensation.
Van Persie has the same sort of character and his team got pasted 9-0 the other day. I would even understand if the excitement came from his work at PSV but it doesn’t, it’s mostly due to him being a legend and coming across well. The same reason Ole got the job and we saw how that went.
Not even remotely excited at the prospect of him being manager, even in the short term.
People same the same about McKenna under every shit manager ever. You can’t judge an assistant on the manager’s work.
Isn't he already responsible for our attack? Would not be excited at all with him as a interim or god forbid as a permanent manager.
don’t think the players have downed tools which I think is an even more damning indictment of Ten Hag’s tactics. Under previous managers you can sort of tell they didn’t give a shit by the end but to me it looks like they’re all still playing for him, he’s just a bit shit.I have mixed views about Ruud as well. Mainly because I know almost nothing about his coaching capabilities. That is not to say he couldn't be good.
We have Porto and Villa then yet another international break. So those seem to set the timescales.
But I seriously doubt Ten Hag can turn things round at OT. As to what the players think will be interesting. Will they try and save him. We will know pretty soon.
Well that was exactly my point. People said McKenna was shit because of how shit the team was. Despite all reports saying how highly rated he was. Then he left to become a manager and has done utterly brilliantly. So I was responding to posts in here from being saying our attack is shit, so what does he even do? And I’m saying, it’s not fair to judge him off ETH’s work. He may take over and be great. We can’t know how good at coaching an assistant is based solely off the performance of a team that someone else is leading. As someone who has worked under a lot of idiots in my time, I especially know this to be true.But we can judge McKenna on what he's done since, which is remarkable.
What I like most about Ruud as a potential interim from the almost nothing I know is that he looks fabulous.
Because he used to play for United. That is daft. He is either a strong manager or not, I dont care if he was a United player or notKind of excited to see what he can do as interim manager. Happy to have a United man in charge again, even though it shouldn't be permanent.

Can't really see it going much better than when Rangnick took charge. Rangnick at least had a half decent finisher in Ronaldo and I don't know where goals are going to come from unless Ruud can show our forwards how hit a spherical object into a rectangular hole.
Ruud yes, Ole noRuud + Ole
Ruud + Ole
There’s absolutely nothing in his coaching history to suggest he should be Man Utd manager, other than his status as a United legend and proximity. I feel like we’ve been here before.
Just ask the many big brains we brought in over the summer to identify the best person for the job. If that happens to be RVN - it won’t - then yay for nostalgia. Otherwise, stop dicking around trying to get the band back together.
Yea hardly need a world class resume to be a caretakerHe’s more than qualified to be a caretaker. After all, he’s already an assistant here and has previously managed PSV. Give him the keys for the rest of the season so we can use our time to identify the next manager.
And anyone who wants Ole back after the way he was treated first time round is a clown.Nothing against Ruud, but if this happens it’s proof this club is nothing more than a money making circus these days.
Rene Hake. Yes he has. Ruud was obviously with PSV, there is the GK coach who has managed and a Norwegian guy who was a club manager before he joined too. We have a whole squad of managers.Whats the other bloke we brought in like as a coach? Hasn't he managed teams in Holland?
