MORE TO COME FROM RUUD

Last updated : 28 March 2003 By Editor
Roy watched from the stands as Ruud put 3 goals past Fulham
last weekend, and he was impressed with the Dutchman’s
display:

"When he is in that kind of mood, I think we need two balls
on the pitch, one for Ruud and one for the rest of us," said
Keane.

"He is exactly the same in training. When he sees that goal,
his eyes light up. He is very selfish like that but I say
that in a nice way, I don't mean that nastily.

"Goals are all he is interested in - goals, goals, goals."

While Van Nistelrooy has not stopped scoring in Europe,
Keane feels that he still has something more to give in the
Premiership:

"Ruud has done well with his goals this season, but he is
probably disappointed with his league performances,

"He is up to 15 in the Premiership now and I think he was
hoping to catch up with some of the other strikers regarding
league goals. His record since he came to the club has been
brilliant and long may it continue."
