The same one who has won nothing in his career and has a very bad win rate for a supposedly top manager.

Is Poch's CV getting Spurs to a CL final and bottling it?

surely there must be more?

1 cup (the French Micky Mouse Cup) in 13 years of management is terrible

Manchester United are close to appointing Ralf Rangnick as interim manager on a six-month contract.

The 63-year-old German is poised to join United but will not be in charge this weekend against Chelsea while he waits for his work permit.

United have agreed terms with Rangnick, but not with Lokomotiv Moscow, where he is the head of sports and development.

It comes after United sacked Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on Sunday following a trophyless three-year spell as boss.

Rangnick won the German Cup with Schalke in 2011 and took RB Leipzig to the final in 2019.

During the 2010-11 season he guided Schalke to the semi-finals of the Champions League, where they lost 6-1 on aggregate to United, who were then beaten by Barcelona in the final.

United are eighth in the Premier League and Solskjaer, who scored the winning goal in the 1999 Champions League final for the club, was dismissed following an embarrassing 4-1 loss at Watford on Saturday.

Since then, caretaker Michael Carrick, Solskjaer's assistant, took charge of United on Tuesday for the 2-0 win at Villarreal, a result that ensured they would finish top of their Champions League group.

Rangnick has built an impressive coaching reputation during his time in Germany, chiefly through spells at Stuttgart, Hannover, Hoffenheim, Schalke and RB Leipzig.

He was subsequently in charge of the Red Bull group of clubs and his current club Lokomotiv have a Europa League game against Lazio this evening and United are mindful of not disturbing their preparation.

Rangnick impressed during an initial conversation with United officials earlier this week.

However, he has held further discussions about his role beyond the end of the season.

Senior United figures believe Rangnick's expertise will be invaluable from a technical and structural perspective.

The move backs up the Old Trafford outfit's view that bringing in an interim manager to the end of the season will provide them with space to assess the managerial situation properly.

Mauricio Pochettino is known to be interested in the United job but the Premier League club are wary of getting into protracted discussions with PSG that could drag on for longer than they want.

It is understood Michael Carrick will remain in charge for Sunday's game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Rangnick is a better sports director than manager, but that's my personal opinion


does a better job with Leipzig as sports director than all the teams he was manager at

[MTVN]

So his cv is:

German Cup winner - 2011
German Cup finalist - 2019

it's a step up from Carrick though

Tbf to Rangnick he will be managing a different calibre of players at Man Utd, so you'd expect that he could at least get them the FA Cup by the end of the season.

Manchester United have appointed Ralf Rangnick as their interim manager until the end of the season, subject to work visa requirements.

The 63-year-old takes over from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who was sacked on 21 November following a defeat by Watford.

Rangnick has left his role as head of sports and development at Russian club Lokomotiv Moscow to take up the job.

"I am excited to be joining Manchester United and focused on making this a successful season," said Rangnick.

its all very weird

they are hedging their bets, if he turns out ok they will keep him, otherwise at the end of the season loads of managers come into play. I cant see Conte staying past this season at spurs for example

Fan rinses club and fans at man u

[bots]

he is absolutely right

[Denver]

His style of Gegenpress is very outdated and he really isn't a manager id trust to have a great second half of the season
