He's a brilliant coach and I to this day can't understand why he's never got a opportunity at a big club. And from following his career over the years I can't think of him failing anywhere.
Mostly wishful thinking.
This is what I'm thinking too. Watching stuff about him on youtube with his talk of systems, discipline etc reminds me of Van Gaal. I really really hope he does well and this all works out. Chances are we'll see a bounce when he takes charge, but I don't see why so many on here are hailing him as our messiah.
Not been drinking. I don't know why they turned him down, but perhaps because he is very direct amd wants to do things his own way on the style he believes is right. This is why I was shocked to see this happen, it's a reverse to the kind of person this board seem to like. Also, i think Spurs tried to get him in the summer but they never came to an agreement. He probably asked for control which Levy hates to give away. My view is, leave the football to footballing knows, owners and CEOs should not be making these decisions, they need to be informed or perhaps, consulted.Not sure if you've been drinking, but how come Arsenal, Spurs, Everton and Milan all turned down this legend?
No idea why he isn't banned.
Love your one liners.
I think what helped in this case is that Rangnick seems to have good personal relationships with Murtough and Woodward developed over several years. Likely to be better received as a result.
You seem to know Ralf better than Ralf himself.
If he can get Martial to press consistently and efficiently, I vote he gets a statue at OT.
nice 3-0 loss
The most exciting thing about this, is it shows a geniune long term approach that we've been lacking for so long.
As a Manager it's a good hire I think, but Rangnick's impact will be setting the standard for the club moving forward, moving us away from the boys club. Which we've been desperate for for years. Whilst he won't tolerate the lack of effort we show weekly.
Be really interesting to see the Manager he recommends. Not sure Poch is as nailed on now.

Well, we're the kind of club that gives control to our managers, let's hope he can deliver.
Why?
Granted its not what everyone wants to hear and I don't agree with him, but I don't think he's wumming, so why would we ban someone for voicing an dissenting opinion?
Maybe he's mellowed but my impression is that he's built his success on not compromising his principles. Which is perhaps why he never got a big club before.
Did Rangnick shag your wife or something?
We have a talented group of players that are in desperate need of a proper system and coaching. He is an ideal candidate for 6 months until Poch or Ten Hag.
He is wumming in pretty much every thread. He is tedious and boring.Why?

His philosophy will take time to materialise considering where we are right now. So what is the minimum expectation people have from him this season?
Gladbach aren't that small, usually they are lingering around top 4 in Germany and therefore sometimes playing in the CL. And they payed a fee of 7.5m€ to get him from Frankfurt, one of the highest fees ever paid in world football for a manager I think? At least in Germany only Nagelsmann was more expensive and I can remember Villas-Boas, but apart from that I don't know.
Yeah. I’d like to think that influence was a crucial aspect in him accepting the job but I’ve heard elsewhere that he’s been keen to land a top job before retirement.
We’ll almost certainly be In Better hands if we give him the licence to call shots.
Can’t wait to sink my teeth into all these videos on YouTube discussing his tactics and philosophy.
The problem being that Poch allegedly wants power and no DOF influence. If rumours are true, he is allegedly disappointed by the lack of power he has at PSG and he ended up pushing Paul Mitchell out at Tottenham. It would be very strange for Rangnick and Murtough to pick Pochettino and it would be even stranger for Pochettino to take the job. Before that move I thought that Pochettino was the club's choice but now I wonder if papers aren't wrong about that.
I really wish we got you in instead.

That's the main reason why I like this appointment. We're hiring a footballing mastermind who officially starts in six months with his proper job as an advisor, whilst also fixing our interim manager issue in the meantime. It's pretty smart from the board and seems like they're actually going to do something about the backroom issues that have plagued us alongside the on-field ones. The fact that our DoF is a big fan of Rangnick doesn't hurt either.
Well, at least we didn't wait to long. Lets see how this goes. We need to get confidence and we need players to start caring about football. Lets hope he will get more discipline in the team in that way. I'm not putting any pressure on him and he should be given time. Maybe more then 6 months, depending on how it goes. It is players who need to perform.
Poch is simply not a winner. He won’t be successful at elite clubs.
I wonder if Rangnick will have significant influence in deciding our permanent manager in the summer. I could see him leaning towards Ten Hag over Poch.
Leave him alone, he's clearly insane.
But both RR and Poch are on the same high press page so it's not the same as PSG where Leonardo is actually stopping him coaching the way he wants to.
Either Poch or ETH are now options. So either way it's exciting. And most of the other including Bodger and Zidane can be safely ignored.
I'm just expressing my opinion, you're just objecting because you don't like to hear it, and not so often.
Another benefit of having Rangnick is maybe we’ll look at signing some of that young German talent out there. I still can’t believe BFS is the only German to ever play for Utd.
Hahahahahaha
Hell. Calm down, he's just an interim. We're not signing him permanently.
Depending on the influence he will get after the interim tenure I do not see we go for either Poch or ten Hag due to the simple fact that they do not have the same philosophy as Rangnick.
season ends in may.
I think it's pretty clear that you're wumming here, but hey, that's just my opinion.
Sorry what? Hiring a 63 year old on a 6 month contract shows a long term approach? I'd like to believe it but I'm not holding my breath.
I expressed the same negative opinion about Rangnick before he became your interim manager too. So why would I be wumming and for what? I'm consistent.
