You are an idiot

Why?

 

[colin's bell helmet]

So Ralf rang nick.... Did Nick tell them to stick the job up their arse as well?

I feel a German comedy coming on, if this mob had any faith in this new manager they'd have given him the job full time, edging your bets isn't the way to instil confidence in the decision that's been made.

Ole MK II incoming, IMO he's already a dead man walking.

I know bugger all about him, but from this he sounds like a highly knowledgeable and nice guy.

A bit of a contrast to recent incumbents if so.

Ralf Rangnick: ‘I have to influence areas of development across the whole club’

The German sporting director talks about his philosophy – ‘like a jigsaw with 500 pieces’ – his time at Sussex University and what has gone wrong at Manchester United

be interesting to see if it's just him or his staff will follow for 6 month.....or rely on the current coaching muppets

also, he's not exactly been pulling up trees in the Europa Dopa league this season. unless they beat Lazio they are out after game day 5

Not a criticism more an observation. But how has these “game 1 to whatever has come into our game? It’s an American terminology and fit only for the NFL not football. I might seem a bit pedantic but all the same let’s keep our football away from USA sayings. Next thing I’m expecting is the “offense vs the defense “. Ok defense I get. :-)

Decent appointment for them, and a huge upgrade on Solskjaer. Not easy coming in mid-season and implementing a new style of play though. Will be interesting to see how it pans out.

He will still have Noddys back room staff so he will have to coach them first.

Rangnick is a surprisingly sensible appointment due to his knack of turning things around for teams in a long term capacity. Hopefully he comes undone by the fact it's United and they're run by people who still probably don't know the offside rule.

So he's won nothing of note but he's in his 60's and has spent most of his time in German club football but the top German clubs: Bayern or Dortmund have left well alone.

 

[Jefferson Airplane]

Rag-Neck... haha.

Sounds like a decent appointment but working with those egos will be his biggest challenge yet.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Hmm has rag in his name. It's a yes from me.
