Does Rangnick want the job after the six months?
"The people with whom I've spoken with, they have been very clear that it is a six-month role. We have never spoken about what will happen in the summer. If they will speak about me with that, we will see. if they ask me about my opinion, I might make the same recommendation that I did at RB Leipzig twice, that it might be better to work with me for one year."

The post Sir Alex Ferguson years
"It's not unusual that after along. successful spell, the club needs to find a new pathway. The club has had no continuity in signing new players and sticking to the DNA of the club. In the future, the board members and my self have the same opinion. It's important not to have many changes in management."

I like him already, talking very straight forward and honest. Not sugar coating it, talking the squad up but being realistic at the same time saying don't expect 6 month miracles (which is fair)

"Michael, I got to know this two days ago. I met with Michael and Kieran, I had a long private conversation for more than an hour. I tried to convince him to stay, in the end, I had to accept that. I'm more than happy to work with the current coaching staff, I need their expertise. I will try to find two or three people that will join us in the coming weeks, but due to Brexit, it's not that easy."

On transfers and recruitment
"We haven't spoken about new players. Now is the time to get to know the current squad in detail, the squad is definitely not too small. There is enough players. Maybe after Christmas, there will be a time to talk about possible transfers in the winter. In my experience, winter is not the time for sustainable transfers. It will be difficult in the winter."

"Seeing Cristiano yesterday at 36, I’ve never seen a player that physically fit at that age. He can easily make the difference."

If this would have been part of the Remain campaign they would have won by a landslide

Waxing lyrical about CR7
Rangnick managed Raul, after Raul had been pushed out of Madrid for being passed it, and the media was saying he'll have problems with an athletic specimen like Ronaldo! :lol:

Rangnick's vision
"It can only go game by game, step by step. You have to make sure you have the biggest chance to win the next game then step by step. Let the players follow and buy into the idea that I can offer them on how we want to play in the future. Pep has been at City for three years, Jurgen for five, Thomas only came in February, but in time-wise, they're a little ahead of us in the way they want to develop. I'm more than happy with the players we have here."

I really wish he brings in 2/3 top class continental coaches who can improve us

he seems besotted with our support at the stadium after last night
Coming from the Red bull soulless clubs it probably does feel a bit different. Atmosphere last night was great from both sides.
