SAHA – HENRY BETTER THAN RUUD

Louis Saha:

“Ruud lacks big-match experience. He has never played in
major finals, either with United or with Holland, and he
needs to gain experience at the highest level. Thierry is
far more experienced. He has played in the finals of the
World Cup, Euro 2000 and Confederation Cup and he is battle-
hardened. He knows how to approach games like these.

“Ruud never scores from outside the 18-yard area and never
takes free-kicks. It is very rare to see him trying his luck
from distance. Ruud doesn't take much of a part in the
team's collective play. His game is all about finishing.”

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
