He could also point out there are a half-dozen or so players that can do the same job Rice can/would and at a much better cost to then spread around other areas of the pitch, i.e. fullback and perhaps another CB.He'll persuade Ed to go all out for Rice, the final jigsaw in the puzzle.
Then it's onto CL glory
Ralf Rangnick | ex-interim manager | does anyone rate him?

I hope it doesn't turn out to be Van Gaal Mark II.
Among others.
He retains his position anyways. He will probably be new ceo after Ed.Murtough was instrumental in this appointment you idiots
Sounds like a perfect match because we aren’t likely to win anything in the next six months either. If he can coach some good football to the players, then it will be worth the time.
Sancho is English as well, so he's probably shit.
Yeah, there needs to be someone in the structure who has the tactical knowledge to coach the coaches or new ideas cant come in.
I think so. He actually shares something with Leonardo but in a more intense way, they are both supposed to be intense and difficult to handle, control freaks and they both have an idea about the role of head coach since they both did it. Now Rangnick was a better coach than Leonardo, nontheless I think these type of DOF/executives are better with head coaches that only care about the training ground and touchline, anyone that wants more power will have to fight someone that is not going to back down.
Wreck-em Ralf!
Very happy with this appointment. Rangnick will be perfect for getting us used to a high pressing system off the ball which will make the transition under Poch in particular much easier. Looking forward to our defence being higher and there not being a big vacuous space between our defensive 3rd and our attack.
I think it was in Sept 2020. So before his best period.
Learned much of his trade in Germany so...
Yeah let’s wait on calling Murtogh the second coming of Christ himself.
No. Quite the opposite.
His style is more similar to Ralf's than ETH's is. Both are more direct, huge emphasis high pressing and transitions, less about control of the ball.
The school of Bielsa has more in common with the Gegenpress than the school of Cruyff. Yes ten Hag will press, but that's about the height of the similarities. There's a lot of people here clamouring for ETH who are hilariously unfamiliar with how his Ajax side play.
He will retain his position anyways.
Will seem strange to have a coach willing to do some coaching.
And that's great. But then why has he been limited to who he has coached and not taken over at another top club? I'm just a bit confused as to given his age, say what you've said about him and not been given a chance to coach Bayern / Barca etc is a bit odd, don't you think?
What?
This is probably the most positive I have felt about an appointment since we employed Van Gaal.
An excellent choice for an interim manager, and clearly shows our normally inept self-preserving board has an eye on fixing the structural issues at the club if he is been tapped for a technical role beyond this season.

Shaw was great all of last winter but I guess this is just before we almost hired Poch last year.
I wasn't sure about this at the start but I'm really excited by this appointment. Staying on as a consultant for two years is huge. It will be really interesting to see how he sets us up and how he can develop this squad.
He seems to talk a good game but let's see if he can deliver with the elite. Interesting appointment.
Mctom is done. Can't control and can't pass
He spent nearly a decade as Leipzig and Salzburg director of football building Leipzig up from the 4th tier with a couple of interim coaching positions with Leipzig in there.
He had a burnout at Schalke and big clubs don't really go after that type of profile, they keep things in a close circle.
I'm flippin' buzzing right now.
A lot of posters very unfamiliar with Ragnick. You're all in for a treat. I recommend watching some of his interviews on YouTube on the 'Coaches Voice' channel or if any full member can link.
This is absolutely momentous for Manchester United, especially the added consultancy. Ragnick has the ability to lay a foundation for both the football on the pitch and just as importantly our recruitment process for coaches and players.

Thank god, an actual footballing no nonsense genius.
Atleast this confirms Pogba leaving, since he doesn't like to run most days. Hopefully Martial and Maguire too.

John Murtough
Why would it be similar? Because he has a similar complexion and similar accent?
Rangnick's ideas and Pochettino don't quite fit though. I wonder if we're dead set on Poch.
Are you part of the clubs pr department?
They sacked Ole weeks later than they should have and according to articles in the athletic made no attempt to find a replacement during the international break, in the blind hope that he could turn things around
They also renewed the contracts of several of the coaching team just a few weeks ago and mike phelans contract being extended was reportedly part of the club showing their commitment to ole
Yes Varane and Sancho were seemingly good signings but the once again we neglected central midfield and seemingly passed up the chance to raise funds for these areas by refusing to sell lingard and / or pogba for realistic amounts.
The idea that the running of the club is getting better is ridiculous. This appointment seems positive but it will take a lot more to convince me that the club is now on the right track. He is currently only due to be a consultant post his interim period so ed / richard arnold could easily ignore his advice and almost every key role in the club is still taken up by a novice
Would you really expect him to have won something with Hoffenheim, Schalke or Leipzig in a league where Bayern have dominated for at least the last 4-5 decades?His trophy record is rather...ermmm bare
Aren't all football managers proven football men?
The idea that Shaw is "done" because of the Rangnick appointment is laughable. Same applies to most of our players too.
High intensity pressing isn't something that's instinctual to players. They're taught how to do it. It's called coaching.

Which leads me to my next question, why didn't the big German clubs go for him?
Also I think Rangnick knows because of that that he can't do the head coach role for a long time, he is a control freak and risks to overwork himself.
That's why he only took over interim in the last years I think, while preferring the DoF style role in clubs
Good post thanks.
Surely Ralf will have an input on who should succeed him. Ten Hag coached in Germany...
