One Man Utd star is really loving live under Van Nistelrooy 😍 | OneFootball

It's fair to say that Erik ten Hag's sacking has lifted the gloom at Manchester United and for one player in particular.

Ten Hag fell on his sword after last month's defeat away to West Ham with his former assistant Ruud van Nistelrooy installed as caretaker manager.

Old Trafford's legendary ex-striker took charge of his final game on Sunday for Leicester City's visit and received a parting gift from captain Bruno Fernandes.

The Portugal midfielder opened the scoring against the Foxes on his 250th appearance for the Red Devils to extend his purple patch.

He bolstered that tally to five goals in four games by doubling United's lead later in the first half.

Incoming United boss Rúben Amorim might need to think about keeping RVN on for a little while longer.
