Ruud van Nistelrooy showed more emotion in one game for Man Utd than Erik ten Hag did in 128

The Telegraph  

Whether he was corralling his defence to push up and play a higher line or lustily celebrating United’s goals, Van Nistelrooy looked more animated over 90 minutes than Ten Hag had for much of his 128-game reign and even managed a laugh and joke with his Leicester counterpart Steve Cooper at one point. “What a hit!” the beaming Dutchman said as he revelled in Casemiro’s stunning opener. Jeers – for lame performances or some of Ten Hag’s substitutions – were not uncommon. Van Nistelrooy’s name had been sung by the Stretford End at various times throughout the game, the United fans warmly embracing their revered former striker, who scored 150 goals in 219 games for the club.
