Latest rumours are that Ruud van Nistelrooy has in his own head left his position. A few weeks back RVN had offered his resignation, but being talked over by Top, to reconsider and stay on. Surely coming to this conclusion, he should be eager to get out.
This could be wrong. However, it circulates inside fanbase camps as leaked information. It has been out for a few weeks. If true, players knowing will ensure it is not perfect. The man in charge does not really want to be in this job.
Gary O’Neil is one man who could potentially take on a caretaker position. If the result of the league situation is known, he could start discussing a future for next season. This is possible if Ruud again is open to walk. This situation looks locked as one very difficult, having a man in charge who wants to be somewhere else.
O’Neil is a manager who knows this business. For him to get a chance at Leicester and potentially keep Leicester in the division would be significant. Going to Molineux to secure three points with him would surely be sweet revenge. It is a pursuit worth considering.
Ruud staying on at this point is questionable if he wants out. Players know this. He said in his last interview that he has little or no faith in them. His message yesterday signals major negatives. It looks as if he has given up. Keeping him in the seat for the next games must be an act of very destructive thinking.

We would consider Gary O’Neil as the person to call if Ruud decides to walk out. It will be very difficult to regain trust and belief in this group if he has already given up himself.
Interesting hours are coming up. A new chapter looks to be written. A third management appointment must and should happen. The former Wolves manager is seen as a potential candidate. He is fresh, just 41 years old, and has a CV that looks very interesting in this perspective.
We are waiting for updates.
