He was more than just a poacher. He had a great hold up play and his passing was very efficient. It is very easy to see why he said Cavani resembles the closest to him.But the best teams in recent times didn't have a pure poacher upfront though, instead they had a very dynamic striker.
I think things ended badly with Ruud was because we created a monster that we had to transfer out. The Real Madrid offer was just the icing on the cake and a very easy decision for Fergie. He was obsessed with personal glory (in particularly goals) and his rivalry with Henry. There were reports back then that he would sulk if he did not get on the scoresheet, and whole team would be forced to try to get a tap-in for him. Our teamplay being affected was just byproduct of his huge ego.
