Because you watched X Factor?
No, but for having a go back at him.
Who won that argument?
No, it just came to a conclusion and ended, but I think he looked at it and he respects the fact that I was big enough to have a go back at him.
He was brilliant.
He's probably still the best finisher I've played with.
He was ruthless.
A bit like Harry Kane, he just wants to score.
He hates not scoring.
You'd win the game 4-0 if he doesn't score.
He'd sit there in the corner on his own.
He'd be gutted.
But he was fantastic and then it was only, it was the first season he was brilliant, the second season,
You could see there was starting to be a few issues with him and Cristiano, and one of them had to give, and I think Alex Ferguson obviously made the right decision.
If I put him in... Yeah, you knew if you play him in, he's scoring 100%.
No, because at that time, Cristiano wasn't... He was nowhere near the level, obviously, he is now, but I think Ruud was used to David Beckham getting the ball down, Ryan Giggs getting the ball down, putting crosses into the box, getting on the end of them, and then Cristiano come in and started chopping back, chopping back, and he got frustrated with it, and I think...
It was probably the right time, again, for Ruud to move on and then the likes of myself, Cristiano, Darren Fletcher, who was still young, to come through and be the next generation of the team.
Power, I think.
The pace, power, aggression.
You could see just the way you run, you could see the aggression in how you run.
