Favourite ever Dutch United player?

vds is the only one who could come remotely close to rvn.

and he still doesn't.

rvn was the best proper 'striker' striker we've ever had. The most lethal bastard to ever wear the shirt

Met ruud once, very cool guy. £#%&!ing amazing player in his day. Would fancy him against any side and his finishing was ridiculous. Especially around 2003.

love ruud.

if ruud left too soon, ed vds came too late. think of the headaches that would have prevented.

would have loved to see van basten play for us, though. :0)

Ruud
Jaap
VdS

yep. that hat trick he hit at home to Charlton when he got 44 or whatever it was for the season, he just looked like he wouldn't miss any halfway presentable chance.

Van Persie.

Shame he has regressed this much though

The funniest thing (though it didn't seem that way at the time) was that they did exactly the same to us a few months later in the league

Not many gave us much chance of winning anything at that point......

rooney beats 3-4 players in that move. He doesn't beat that many players in a full season now
