RUUD WANTS TO STAY

Last updated : 03 June 2005 By Editor
Ruud van Nistelrooy has said that he was rushed back this season and that he doesn't want to leave the club this summer.

"There is no question I want to stay,"

"I'm committed to United and that is where I want to be and where I will be.

"It's the most important thing for me.

"For me, it was a season of injuries. I only played 27 games but I scored 16 goals and, if you look at it like that, it's not too bad.

"But at clubs like United you are pushed to do an impossible number of games and, for a player, it is becoming physically impossible without rest.

"Overall, it wasn't my best season and everyone knows that. I know that myself.

"I was rushed back too quickly and now I am struggling and it is a bit of a disappointment."
