More quotes by Ruud van Nistelrooy
In Spain and Italy I would not have a life among the fans. Everyone wants to touch you, own you and approach you. I try to be as kind as possible to all my fans, but in those countries I could not do it. There they ask too much from you.

Ruud van Nistelrooy
Because people have read those things in the newspapers, they think it is true. Ten years ago all these things I have just mentioned would have upset me.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
Most of the pressure comes from myself, not from others. I don't need a manager or a pundit to put pressure on me. I do all that myself before others do it.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
When we got knocked out against Porto in the Champions League, I only slept two hours that night. I was not a nice person to be with after that match. I was struggling to get the result out of my system.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
It's not just the manager who makes the decision, it's the player who makes the decision. They both decide fifty-fifty to make a decision.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
When it comes to losing with United, I feel solely responsible for it. I can't help it. My brain will work like mad after a defeat. I want to know where I have made the wrong decisions, how I could have changed things for this fantastic club.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
My back to the goal, physically fighting off defenders, trying to bang my goals in, every week I have to do the business for this club. That's the life of a striker.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
Of course I have the odd bad game like other players. But I can't accept that. Especially when things don't go right for United. It all means so much to me to be succesful here. It drives me crazy at times.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
If I don't get the service or if I don't the ball in the box, where I want it, I start drifting into midfield. I go and look for the ball. I try to be important for the team in other areas.
Ruud van Nistelrooy
People say it is part of the game. You win some, you lose some. But not for me.
