Any chance we could get that "useless" Rangnick back, he seemed to have a few decent ideas?

Agree0 Disagree0

17 Aug 2022 11:57:02
Decent ideas and manchester united don't go together angel.

17 Aug 2022 12:23:26
Have you given up already on Ten Hag then angelred?

17 Aug 2022 12:35:20
Why do you think they sacked him. he had ideas to bring the football side of things to an elite level with time and resources.

17 Aug 2022 13:12:39
As soon as he said we needed 10 players, they were moving on without him. I imagine Ten Hag said he'd settle for a couple and make use of existed academy players.

17 Aug 2022 13:59:10
Should have kept him upstairs.
John murtough chasing his tail all summer long. How many times was he in Barcelona and turin. chasing players that don't want united.
Is there any point in having scouts at united cause no one is listening to them. Who are they scouting.
What happened with torres. Ah its OK now scouts we are buying someone else. U just wasted 2 years but it's OK you got paid for a pointless exercise. Yours Faithfull the united board. Smiley face smiley face.

17 Aug 2022 14:21:03
Not sure about that spenno i think Ten Hag genuinely thought he could get a semi tune out of these players and along with a few signings start heading toward the top 4. However i am now hoping he is realising he was wrong and is singing from a different hymn sheet to that.

17 Aug 2022 14:24:53
I don't disagree, but Ralph got some serious stick on herere last year.

17 Aug 2022 14:46:58
Rangnick was critical of the structure wasn't he and suggested Paul Mitchell come in. Having Rangnick as a consultant on the footballing side and Mitchell as DoF would of been amazing, two people who are experts at their role. What a crazy idea though, best to go with the untested option.

17 Aug 2022 14:57:10
Rangnick was here as a coach and did a bad job. There wasn't a director role for him, that's the problem but no surprise it didn't work out.

17 Aug 2022 15:15:15
This summer is a write-off. Next summer, buying the players who'll help us push for top 4, will be the one we thought we were having now. This summer is stabilising the ship, clearing out some driftwood and bringing in the players who'll get us Europa, let alone CL.

17 Aug 2022 15:27:50
Ralf as a coach was a disaster. He came in with a philosophy and abandoned it and mailed it in for the rest of the season.

If players are not doing what you ask, drop them. Noone would have blamed him if he had ended the season with loads of kids trying their best. Watching players strolling around was simply not acceptable.

17 Aug 2022 15:43:35
Spenno - Who’ve we cleared out exactly. You mean we’ve let at least £60m worth of talent walk out of the door for free and not replaced them!

What evidence is there that we’ll get things sorted by next summer. If EtH doesn’t get some help he might not even be in a job by then and have you not seen what’s happened over the past decade.

Arnold and Murtough are rubbish and the Club was right this is a new Utd but an even worse one than before.

17 Aug 2022 16:30:54
Dodgy he abanded it because these snakes didn’t want to work and run.

Just like now these snakes are still not working for the badge.

17 Aug 2022 16:46:31
Exactly, he came in with a philosophy, the wasters carried it out for half a game and then thought nah that's too much like hard work and this lad will be gone soon anyway.

Donred, you say there was'nt a directors role for Ralf but there was . It just meant getting rid of the useless waste of space currently occupying it.

17 Aug 2022 16:52:35
What 'talent' are you referring to DLIB? A handful of players everyone here whinged about for the entirety of last season?

17 Aug 2022 17:19:01
Bolger, agree 100%. So why keep selecting them? Drop them and put someone in who will at least run.

17 Aug 2022 17:24:03
I love the idea we are steadying the ship and getting Europa League football. I think the reality is a whole lot different. In fact, I’ll probably get pelters, but looking at this side right now………. it wouldn’t surprise me to be in a relegation battle. Deadly serious and sorry to be negative!

17 Aug 2022 17:29:31
Agree dodgy that’s what ten hag needs to do I think 2 games is enough to know what players are not cut out but then again we don’t have a big squad

I would prefer to watch the kids instead so let’s see on Monday what the team is

But I would be surprised if that back 4 isn’t completely different.

17 Aug 2022 17:45:33
Rangnick was ideal for Director of Football. Can't be worse than Murtough who seems woefully under qualified.

17 Aug 2022 17:55:19
Spenno - You knew exactly what I meant, the Club has let at least £60m worth of talent, assets, deadwood it doesn’t matter what you call it but players have left the Club which we could have got money for and invested back into the squad.

This Club has been appallingly managed for years I don’t think there is any evidence that next years window will be any better.

If they don’t back the manager in the next two weeks I’m not even convinced he’ll be here next summer. This squad is toxic, they don’t play for each other and the Club has done absolutely nothing to move players on apart from kissing goodbye to millions that have just walked out of the door for free.

Bailly, Tuanzebe, AWB, Jones, Chong, Amad, Pellestri, Williams are all still at the Club with only two weeks of the window remaining. That’s possibly another £60m that could be re-invested and given to EtH if the Club was properly managed.

We’ve had some bad transfer windows in the past 10 years but this must rank as one of the worst especially with a new manager at the helm.

17 Aug 2022 18:51:07
Bailly if he keeps fit (big if) is a decent centre half. Amad and Pellestri have a lot of potential and ideally if the rest of the team were playing decently they would be gradually introduced to bring them up to speed. Right now both are not ready enough and we need to rely on better more experienced players. Williams Chong and Jones should go for their sakes and the teams.

17 Aug 2022 19:35:45
Well we are skint and going to get relegated fireman, we’ve had some pessimistic posters on here over the years but you’re winning at the moment. We will not get relegated ?.

17 Aug 2022 20:32:15
GDS2: I’d argue I’m a realist unlike the pink and fluffy brigade who think everything will be ok.

The relegation comment was tongue in cheek, apologies if you couldn’t see that for what it was. However, our form at the moment IS relegation form.

My comments about us having no money, whilst partially inaccurate due to us still bringing in decent revenue, is accurate too it would seem.

But don’t worry, I’m sure come next May we’ll have turned it around and we’ll have done the double and all those nasty pessimists and naughty people demonstrating will have been proven wrong.

Get real.

17 Aug 2022 21:50:43
DLIB - and I’m sure you knew exactly what I meant. The summer and window are not over, I’m sure we will sell others by the time it closes. You are judging things as they stand now but things will look much different in a week or two. Better or worse, I have no idea.

17 Aug 2022 22:14:32
That’s why the scouts left, ETH wanted to ignore there past 2 years work, that’s his choice and part of his remit as the new deal he signed, so it’s a bit rich blaming Murtough and Arnold when there chasing ETH targets, targets that are not even available, ETH clearly thought once he was united manager and said we want you they would come running, clearly they not so impressed.

18 Aug 2022 00:20:57
Oh the old realist, got you.

18 Aug 2022 08:52:38
Whereas you GDS2……. are full of hope and optimism! Or maybe you don’t actually have an opinion but instead you choose to just troll other posters who do…. hmmm?

18 Aug 2022 11:11:53
"In fact, I’ll probably get pelters, but looking at this side right now………. it wouldn’t surprise me to be in a relegation battle. Deadly serious".

In fairness, Fireman, it's difficult to see the tongue in cheek aspect in that comment.

Personally, I don't think we'll be relegated, but unless things improve rapidly, I can certainly see a bottom half finish as being realistic.

Even then, as long as I see improvement in our play and attitude, and steps in the right direction re. ins and outs, I can put up with that. I'm under no illusions as to the rot that has set in from top to bottom at our club.

18 Aug 2022 13:38:38
Yeah fair one! Bit contradictory it has to be said, so hands up ??

So to clarify…. I don’t think we’ll go down as we’d still have the clout to get players to get us out of any hole. However, our form IS relegation form at the moment, and if this performance level continues we could be in the proverbial.
