Manchester United manager, Ralf Rangnick has come out to say that he is frustrated by the fact that he has been unable to implement his pressing style at MUFC. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he is the most disappointed at the fact that things haven’t worked out for MUFC under him, and it is a shame that because he never had a preseason, he couldn’t physically develop and raise the level of the team.
Rangnick added that he is more than self-critical, so he agrees that he should have done better during his time in charge.
His words, “We had no pre-season, so we couldn’t really physically develop and raise the level of the team,”
“I am the one who is most disappointed about that and frustrated about that.”
“Cristiano scored a few goals, but, again, Cristiano – and I’m not blaming him at all, as he did great in those games – but he’s not a pressing monster,”
“He’s not a player – even when he was a young player – he was not a young player who was crying, shouting ‘Hooray, the other team has got the ball, where can we win balls?”
“It was the same with quite a few other players so we had to make some compromises at one stage, maybe we made a few too many – that’s also possible – but, as I said, we never found the right balance between what we need with the ball and without.”
“I’m more than self-critical, I should have done better,”
“I expected that me and my coaching staff could have developed this team in a more sustainable kind of way.”
“We couldn’t and it’s not only the players who should be blamed, it should be ourselves. We all could and should’ve done better.”
