Guess, you didn't read the article. I would suggest you do it .
Ralf Rangnick | ex-interim manager | does anyone rate him?

I did, the headline doesn't match what he says at all. It is taken completely out of context.
Well, I said there must be someone hiding somewhere in Germany. Have to admit, never paid much attention to this guy but all the PR is good! At least he’s likely to have a plan and know about tactics...
I have no idea about how long a work permit takes and my understanding is that he isn't in England but I could be wrong.
Yeah couldn't agree more, if they aren't prepared to put in the hard yards ship out
He was working for Lokomotiv Moscow.
He's heart broken that the sh1t-show won't be continuing. If we did appoint Carrick he'd point out his lack of experience and say it's Ole 2.0. Really, he played at the top level so he can automatically coach at the top level? That's rich.
If I was him before I agreed i'd have demanded they sanction the funds for a MF in January. Not Declan Rice type money it would cost but someone like Denis Zakaria. Zakaria could come at a reasonable fee given his contract ends this summer.
Russian sources say his number 2 Kornetka is staying at Lokomotiv, however they also said Ralf wasn't leaving either so take with pinch of salt
Love that story about him requesting the training ground camera footage though. That’s awesome if true and I don’t see why it wouldn’t be. He could probably do a better job coaching on Zoom than our previous coaching has done over the last months.
Yeah I was hoping the McDonnell was wrong about him not being here until Palace, however looking very likely that could well be the case.
Not going to happen when we've got a game every 3 days for the next month or so.
Funny how all of a sudden ex players are talking about trophies again… heard Evra and now Rooney talking about winning trophies. Can only imagine what Scholes is going to say.
A few weeks ago the benchmark were things like “reset the culture” “improved the mood” “ended the toxicity” how do you even measure those things?
Surely the benchmark over the next 6 months to judge Ralf by is to see an improvement in football, a style of play, players developing etc and team chemistry improving…

but been in german football
Hurry up please. That midfield and no striker is making my eyes bleed
Agree. After the Arsenal game we have in theory a few easier games. But it’s never gonna be easy to train new methods when you’ve got a game every few days. Can’t expect miracles. But I do think we have the players to do it. If only we had a younger matic we’d be well set in my opinion.
I think that some of them will love it, the ones that had their best moments under similar managers. Basically Martial, Lindelof, Pogba, Matic, Fred, Bruno Fernandes, Shaw and I'm probably missing some. These players played and thrives under the likes of Jorge Jesus, Lucescu, Allegri, Jardim, Pochettino and Conte. It's something that didn't cross my mind until this week but it must have been strange for some of them to join a club where Mourinho had already drastically reduced intensity in training and were then Managed by Ole.
Wouldn't mind that team
Ralfie has one hell of the job after years of under-coaching. Some of our players better start shoring up their PR teams. How these double sessions are disturbing their previously comfortable lives.
Doubt the players had comfortable lives.
It certainly makes a change from the sympathy porn dished out during our abject performances when it was leaked the coaching staff and Ole were working so hard it was to the detriment of their personal lives. Rangnick - like other elite coaches - knows that's just a given and nothing to moan about, let alone milking sympathy. It'll inspire the players as well.
I can just imagine giving him £100m…. A bunch of unknown players getting signed fans being annoyed until…..
Fecking hell.
Lindelof and Bailly are weak as feck in this game.
Together with the useless Maguire....and our ever present Jones...
I think we need 4 CBs replacements come summer.
Goodness me.

Can I help in anyway to speed the process of his arrival? We aren't beating Arsenal like this.
A manager can't get here fast enough. Man for man are Chelsea are really that much better?
They are mentally weak most importantly.
Their tactics are simply both better than ours and better suited to the players they have.
If anyone needed any more evidence that our current coaching staff need to all be thrown out on on their ear this match is surely it.
So true.
Awful first match for Rangnick this. Should've given Ole a fair shot at steadying the ship instead.
Defence and midfield line ups today, yes.
He must have torn half of his hairs watching that first half performance.
He was doing this vs Villarreal too
Can he take over during halftime v Chelsea? SOS
We are trying to keep it tight but Chelsea extra man guarantees them possession in our half because of it. It’s the formation fecking us imo.
Watching with a neutral here and he’s claiming it’s been a shit game.
Cut his Sky feed before he watches any more of this shite and changes his mind!
Notice how fast Chelsea win the ball back versus Utd because they press. It's how they have 70% possession. Utd stand still when Chelsea get the ball, they defend like a mid/lower table team. They run back to form a low block instead of trying to press in 2-3s to force a wayward pass and turnover in midfield like Chelsea. When you press high, you can start attacking nearer to the goal. Chelsea could be 2 goals up but their attack really isn't firing on all cylinders.
Utd rely on individual defensive actions of their expensive backline but not cohesive organisation and teamwork to press as a unit to defend. If Rangnick is watching he will be quite annoyed to realise the scale of the task, it's not easy to implement pressing schemes in the middle of a season without a break. At BVB Klopp needed a full preseason, when he first arrived at LFC it took time to implement his system as well. Rangnick isn't as good a coach as Klopp who's more possession-oriented so Utd fans can expect early Klopp results but worse, imo.

He’s got some job on his hands. The last couple of months have been woeful.
Ralfs got his work cut out
