Rio meets Ruud! Van Nistelrooy opens up to Ferdinand about his Man United days with 'animal' Roy Keane, Arsenal's taunts, Fergie RUINING his 2002 Golden Boot chances and healing his rift with the iconic boss after forcing a move to Real Madrid

Ruud van Nistelrooy has delivered a fascinating insight on life behind the scenes at Manchester United during his five years at Old Trafford under the guidance of Sir Alex Ferguson.

United swooped for Dutchman Van Nistelrooy in 2001, signing him for £19million from PSV Eindhoven. He scored 150 goals in 219 games, most notably winning the Premier League and the FA Cup and cementing his place in Old Trafford folklore.

Van Nistelrooy joined his former United team-mate Rio Ferdinand on his Vibe with Five YouTube channel to lift the lid on the big stories from his time at the Red Devils.
