Manchester United legend, Ruud van Nistelrooy has come out to urge Real Madrid fans to value Jude Bellingham’s debut season. This is coming after an incredible run of goalscoring for the English midfielder, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he does not believe Bellingham has dropped form in recent games, and he even scored another goal as soon as he stepped on the pitch vs Cadiz.

Ruud added that Jude is a splendid all-rounder footballer who deserves more praises for what he has achieved this season.
His words, “I don’t think it (his form) has gone down. In fact, against Cádiz he scored again as soon as he went out on the field and now has 18 goals. In what sense does he perform less? You have to put things in perspective.
That Jude has so many goals is an extra, a bonus. He is a splendid all-rounder, who arrives phenomenally on the second line, he runs, he defends, he has a vision of the game, he makes quick transitions… We cannot demand that he be a scorer and, nevertheless, he is one.
His season is spectacular and must be valued in the right way for him. It doesn’t matter that (Carlo) Ancelotti has changed his role, he performs wherever he is put, because he is an exceptional player.”
WOW.
