Does Ryanair allow rucksack?
Does Ryanair allow rucksacks? My rucksack when empty measures 55cm*40cm*20 cm (I measured with a tape). Is it possible to squish it to carry on Ryanair if it is just half filled ?

Neusser is right. You can bring it and since rucksacks are easily "moldable" you shouldn't have problems. However due to the new regulations he mentioned be prepared to the eventuality of having to send it down in the aircraft hold.
From my personal experience, attendants checking luggage sizes never bother with backpacks, they go after trolleys and hard case luggage to see if they fit in the measures. I saw on many occasions (even after the new regulations) people with huge travelers backpack in the cabin.
Long story short: don't worry, one way or another you will be able to transport your rucksack for free.
