Manchester United is about to conclude a most disappointing season in the Premier League. If the team led by Ruben Amorim, currently 15th in the kingdom, can still save appearances by lifting the Europa League, Ralf Rangnick, former temporary coach of the Mancunian house (2021-2022), draws up a disturbing observation on the club's state.
For the current Austrian coach, the situation of the Red Devils has been far from having improved since his visit to Old Trafford, on the contrary. She would have even worsened, despite the massive investments made by leaders over the Mercatos.
A poorly cut workforce for the current project
“In the end, there are a few essential points to review and since then, 700 or even 750 million pounds have been invested in new players. And in the ranking, they are even much less well classified than before ”said the German technician on Canal + Austria. “A coronation in the Europa League would allow them to save their season because they would be qualified in the Champions League. Any other results would be disappointing, and it will be interesting to see what will happen. »»
Rangnick also points to structural inconsistency in the management of United:“They recruited a coach in the middle of the season who plays with a three or five defense, while the workforce was built to play with a defense of four. This is what we see when we look at them in the Premier League against opponents that they should beat. It is true that they overthrew the situation against Lyon (5-4, AP) in the Europa League, despite a result which generally eliminates you. And of course, the stadium had a huge impact. »»
