A good choice tbh.
Ralf Rangnick | ex-interim manager | does anyone rate him?

Impressive given that we were only one goal up at half time.
What game was that?
The guy who still does not get how PL works or who has never done anything at big clubs will lay some ground work here?
Well, I mean. I hope it works out.
What game?
Looking more of a charlatan than gegenpressing godfather.
Bullshit
We came into this season expecting a title challenge after the continual improvement over the last 2 years. Now isn't the time to reset again it's time to get get someone in to take what we have forward
RR is getting a free ride by anyone saying he needs time, he's taking us nowhere
While I agree with patience I can understand people who aren't willing to be. We have been told for years that we need patience for Ole's plan, now we need to be patience to undo the plan... It's a bad joke.
Top 4 is gone. The rest of this season needs to be developing the style of football ensuring it will then be carried through by the next guy in charge.
I do like how players who don't want to be here are getting little playing time, that is sensible and puts the club first.
A shame Ralf couldn't hit the ground running. We took too long to sack Ole but we were still in a decent position. Let's go all out in the FA Cup and UCL.
Can we just end this season already ? Worst season post Fergie by far. Every time I think we have reached the rock bottom and there's nothing worse coming, United manage to surprise.
I think is in game management seems to be lacking, or not up to the pace of the PL when you see a crowd like that tonight. He still impressed me the way he came across on his opening presser though, so hanging on to that.
What is really annoying me at the moment is the bald yank with the air pods in. What is he? What's he listening to - Jeep's blues?

Forgot Moyes already?
He’s been shocking since he joined frankly. The silver lining is that the board can’t be tempted to mess things up again by extending him and must start doubling down on more permanent options.
Let's see what he says
This is at best as bad as it was under Moyes
They said both things though. He needs time and it will get better. Then no he is interim and should not expect too much.
I really doubt the club did not have intention to save the season and get a CL spot while trying to hire anyone for more than 6 months.
This is worse.
I don't know. Rangnick hasn't delivered, there wasn't even a new manager bounce, but I'm seeing actual improvement with our football under him. It's just that we're weak collectively as a team and we have a shit midfield.
Well, atleast he's not going to be our full-time manager. 
Ragnick has been here for a month plus now and in his tenure we have had 60 mins of good football. 30 mins against palace and today 30 mins. That is poor. Surely he has to use his squad better.
Awkward, we’re in 7th and sinking.
I'm not quite as down as others seem to be. There is definitely certain elements of our game which have improved. Mainly the coordinated press and, sporadically, our ability to stifle chances. But for whatever reason we can't sustain that over entire half of football. The same thing happened under Solksjaer which makes me think we've still a lot of mental hang ups over the end of his tenure.
But the one area where Rangnick definitely needs to improve upon is what happens when we lose control of the game. We.just don't seem able to recover. Whether that's through substitutions or a change of formation, we need to see some sort of in game response.

I'd rather finish in the bottom half of the table than giving that scouse twat reign over old trafford.
Ragnick's selection & initial approach was spot on. His in-game management to not make subs for energy in the midfield at 2-0 with 20 minutes to go was diabolical. Even more inexcusable is how he didn't immediately change the midfield as soon as it went to 2-1.
Does RR look like a man who can help us go all out in either? Actually yeah I can see us going out in both under him
Not really awkward, the season isn't over. Moyes was way way worse, dismantling a PL juggernaut (albeit ageing, sure) from the coaches, the backroom staff to the players.
Because youve harped on about how bad he was vs Ole (seemingly) and forget Ole was more lucky than a cat.
It was no where near that bad, not by a mile.
When you keep picking the same players who the previous manager did and they proved themself to be a liability and not giving a chance to others, its hard to defend you
We've changed and given other players chances in other positions, with no change. But we still play Fred

Far worse. Moyes had better players which helped him. We don't even have that to fall back on now
Underwhelming. See the season out then get into the main stand with a suit on.
Already lost patience with him, he can't manage. Talk is cheap.
We were on the bottom in EVERY thing this season. I mean some had to improve with the squad we have.
Nothing unique about 60 mins of pressing in what 7 games? If anything, I would say we need more improvement in that department because right now it is below the expectation.
Not to mentioned the chance conceding stats.
Feel like you could nominate a person from the caf each week to manage our subs and they'd do better than the chumps we hire. Absolutely dire in game management. Truly makes you wonder what he thought was transpiring out there.
This team under Rangnick couldn't dream of getting 81 crosses in a match. They'd need to keep possession for that.
What was Monday if not lucky? Or Norwich?
It’s undeniable the results are no better and the fixtures have been far easier. Rangnick is getting this team nowhere near the finishes Ole did in the last two years, just say it how it is.
I agree with that.
Truth being told: I am a bit disappointed that the is leaning away so much from the kind of football, you would expect him to play. That isn't a good outlook, I mean, I get it, you have to play with the cards you have and he is doing some good things but on the other hand, he is making some weird decisions. Leaving Matic on when it is visible, that he is done. Asking Fred to continue pressing high up, when you are already under the kosh (again I get it, get a third goal and it is game over and Villa going forward means more opportunities but then it shouldn't have been only Fred. I applaud a bolt decision but this seems halfarsed).
I was under the assumption, that another manager could bring more out of the squad but maybe that was just wrong. I am not laying all the blame on individuals, but bringing in Ronaldo closed a few doors in terms of available playstyles but it seems like it is the whole group who just isn't up for it. Discouraging to say the least. But, I am not sure, if these problems could have been solved by someone else better - I tend to say no. I mean, our midfield is what it is, our fitness levels are what they are, would Conte have been able to turn that particular tide?
Moyes wasn't as bad as the shitshow we've seen this season. We could at least string a few passes together back in those days
Yeah trust the guy who does not seem to understand PL nor show anything outstanding on the pitch to consult us. Red bulls this red bulls that though.
Nothing could go wrong.
Spot on. To put it simply: good game preparation, bad in-game management.
I think he is a good manager, just the absolute opposite to Ole.
