I see operation polish a turd is underway in the media. If this guy is such a visionary how come the likes of Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Psg, Bayern Munich, Spurs, Arsenal, Everton, Wolves, Villa, etc not get on the phone to him since he left Leipzig in 2019 and all the clubs mentioned sacked their managers in that time? Why’s he currently nowhere near the top four leagues in Europe and not even taking training in his current role?

Anyone saying Hoffenhiem was good under him needs their head checking. No, they weren't they just got promoted and that was it, they couldn't challenge in a bigger league, he left them and 5 to 6 years later they then managed a 4th and 3rd place finish, which was nothing to do with Rangnick and all to do with Julian Nagelsmann who is now funnily enough with Bayern as he's a quality coach and manager. So all Rangnick is good at is taking teams from lower leagues and promoting them. He never makes them into title contenders or even play decent football

so he is the Sam Allardyce, Neil Warnock of German football then........ :-)

Rags continue their Dipperpool of the 90's tribute act by appointing the German Houillier.

Just watch them continue to be mediocre for a while yet.

Dipper pool tribute act lmfao

all of above are in my book are old school and after last nights game any good coach must watch pep and city vs PSG
and say its the way forward. even klopp at liverpool was made to look average when city played them without strikers. if this city squad had haaland or kane nobody get near us

pep has really changed football in the premier league over the 5 year. but from last season to now he's gone up another level with is skill style energy he has put into this team its crazy the levels we have never seen before.

yes there is so many different ways to win a football match and if you drill your squad into a style you want to play and believe in then its job half done. then you add quality players and you give anybody a game of football

but last night we did something that needs picking the bones out of and should be studied by all
we just played a level of football that you just never seen before ? mark my words here PSG are a very good outfit and have world class players. but we put them through pain that made them submit and wave the white flag.
some of the PSG players faked injury to come off because they just could not handle it

If you think Nagelsmann, Tuchel and Klopp are oldschool then your definition is meaningless..
