I know today’s match is definitely the last one for me as the coach before Ruben Amorim takeover after the international breaks. But For as long as i still remain in Manchester united and i can still give order as the assistant coach, i will make sure he never plays on the pitch till next year cus he’s still a baby on that aspect.— Ruud van Nistelrooy blast Manchester United so-called star player Despite the 3-0 win against Leicester City, Van Nistelrooy decided to criticize him 😳

Ahead of today’s match, van Nistelrooy confirmed this would be his last appearance on the coaching staff before Ruben Amorim takes over as head coach after the international break.
Van Nistelrooy, a familiar figure in Manchester United’s coaching team, emphasized that he would continue to play an influential role in decisions as long as he was involved with the club. He stated bluntly that the player in question would not return to play until next year. His reason? He believes the player is still immature in some areas, particularly in terms of readiness and mental toughness required for top-tier competition.
The former Manchester United striker’s statements have generated significant buzz among fans and the media. For many, this was an unexpected comment, especially given the prominent status of the player rumored to be involved.
Manchester United’s fans and analysts have debated the merits of van Nistelrooy’s tough approach, wondering if it is justified or could risk damaging the player’s confidence and the team’s unity.
While the player’s identity remains unconfirmed, speculation has grown around several younger players, especially those who have shown glimpses of talent but lack consistency at the highest level.
Based on van Nistelrooy’s comments, it appears he questions this player’s attitude and discipline, suggesting they are not yet prepared to earn a regular place in the starting lineup.
The timing is also worth noting. With Ruben Amorim set to step in as head coach, there are already questions about the future of several players at Manchester United. Amorim, known for his strong tactical insights and skill in developing young talent, may take a different stance on this particular player.
However, van Nistelrooy’s decision to speak out publicly might put Amorim in a difficult position as he determines whether the player can address these developmental challenges or if a new environment would be better.
As the club transitions to new leadership, the internal dynamics between the coaching staff, players, and Amorim’s management will be critical for Manchester United’s progress.
Whether this public criticism will drive positive changes for the player or create added strain within the club remains uncertain. For now, the focus will shift to the upcoming international break and the beginning of a new phase under A
morim’s guidance.
