Tue Dec 03 22:00:00 UTC 2024: ## New Leicester Boss Van Nistelrooy Aims for Scrappy Win in Debut
**Leicester, England** – Ruud van Nistelrooy is aiming for a victory in his first game as Leicester City manager, prioritizing a win over attractive football. The Dutchman, who took charge only two days ago, faces West Ham United on Tuesday night following a string of poor results for the Foxes, including a 4-1 defeat to Brentford on Saturday.
Van Nistelrooy, whose managerial debut comes after just two training sessions, has already made a positive impression at the club. He’s aiming for a playing style similar to that of Enzo Maresca, a former Leicester boss and friend, suggesting a smooth transition for the players. The former Manchester United striker, with a decorated playing career boasting five titles across three countries, is under immediate pressure to turn around Leicester’s fortunes. While acknowledging the team might appear disjointed due to the short turnaround, he’s confident a win, however hard-fought, will be enough to lift spirits amongst the fans.
