Rangnick is a weird choice - I was really surprised when I saw it announced. He's a tough character and not an easy person to work with, and his last role in Russia was more of a back office one.

Maybe it's United's idea to test him like this in order to potentially give him a back office role at the end of the season - I heard that they are interested in that. I don't understand what will they be getting with him as an interim coach though - maybe the players will have to impress him if he will be in charge of assembling the team for next season.

Rangnick and Woodward together in director/consultant role? This will be really fun to watch.
Even though they already have Carrick as interim coach, for some reason Manchester still intends to look for an interim coach, before appointing a permanent manager for next season, I think Manchester should be able to provide an opportunity for Carrick to show his capacity as an interim coach before they find a permanent coach in the future , but seeing the career track record of Ralf Rangnick which is quite a lot, of course we should see how capable he will be to bring change to manchester united in the remaining 6 months.

Man United does have few options in choosing a new coach, but that doesn't mean they have to rush to sign a coach. Well, even though Ralf Rangnick is only an interim coach, but he hasn't coached any club in 2 years, while the problem that Man United is currently facing is quite complicated. If only as an interim coach, Carrick should be given the opportunity to live it because he has been with Man United for a long time and he has made a good start against Villarreal in the Champions League.

So manchester united found a new coach and it is not Zidane who probably wants France after the next world cup.

He was very close to joining Milan last year. He has for sure the Ferguson manager style. Let's see he can survive at Ronaldo.
AS much as most Manchester United  fans would have preferred to have Zidane as their coach, I don't think he would have lasted in England. The premier league is tough, and every game needs a different approach and before you get to that ...United is a team that's currently in the ICU, and people want an immediate impact of a new coach to be felt which wont happen immediately! United should have kept Carrick as the care taker until such a time when a coach was scouted, but since its been done lets see what happens.

Now that it is official that Rangnick will be the next coach of Manchester United i can only say. Congratulations ManU. In my opinion Rangnick is one of only a few coaches in europe or even in the world that really have their own style of playing football and that are also able to communicate that to a team and once that style begins to be implemented and executed by the team it can really make a difference. Other coaches that are also able to do that are Favre, Tuchel, Klopp and maybe Pochettino.
I don't really understand why ManU fans would have wished for Zidane as coach. Just because he has a big name and was one of the best players ever? That does not automatically mean, that he is a good coach.

~~Still not any agreement with Zidane and realistic option for new manager on Manchester United is Laurent Blanc.
Actually, I am not trying to compare Blanc and Zidane. I just assume Blanc is a better option than Ole or Bruce. If we are comparing Blanc and Zidane, surely Zidane is the best option. But we must think about the possibility to sign the coach. I ever heard that Zidane is probably not to come to Manchester because his wife doesn't want to move there. While for Blanc, there is no clear information yet. We even don't know if Man United management is interested to him or not.
Are you guys aware yet that Manchester United have already found an Interim coach in Ralf Rangnick? So the Zidane or Blanc arguments will be off for now.
With Honesty, I don't think Zidane was ever interested in the Manchester United job and I doubt if he will ever got to United.
Ralf Rangnick have been permanently become new coach for Manchester United although as interim coach position, exactly he will be manager for Manchester United for few months later and he has chance with primer league and champion league. All rumor about Zidane and Blanc have gone right now maybe depend next primer league season will Zidane change his mind or not, how ever Germany coach get good effect like Chelsea under Tuchel give champion league trophy for the fisrt year and Klopp success give primer league and champion league trophy for Luverpool, now United fans waiting for what can give by Ralf Rangnick, will be success like Tuchel and Klopp or not.
For a quick fix, I wouldn't put him in that role. He will give his opinions on players and methods, but will not be able to interfere like he did at Leipzig. And my other concern is that Rangnick haven’t coached any team for the past 2 to 3yrs as he have been more of director for his club in the last 2yrs and His biggest achievements have been in building sides from the bottom up - most notably at Hoffenheim and RB Leipzig. I feel for Ralf. He's a good coach but the players he will be managing may let him down; Paul Pogba, Harry Maguire and the English Media.

I think Manchester should be able to provide an opportunity for Carrick to show his capacity as an interim coach before they find a permanent coach in the future.
Carrick was stepping up to the role already, dishing out a hot suit to match the status of the MUFC coach. we already saw a significant better play from Manchester United's last champions League game, he should have been given a little more time IMHO to the end of the season to proove himself worthy. I'm looking forward to MUFC's game this weekend with gladiator Chelsea, will love to see the tactics that Carrick will dish out against Chelsea, I am certain it will not be an easy game to win MUFC unlike when the team was still under Ole.

His contract at United is only 6 months and will immediately be appointed as one of the analysts there for two years.
of course it will be interesting how the gait of Rangnick in the EPL.
Will it continue the good trend as did Klopp and Tuchel who are both from the Bundesliga or will Rangnick just be an ole who will be sacked again in the end.

I think this will be very interesting to see later.

What I don't know is whether he will debut together against chelsea later? Please give me more information about this.

Reported from the news a few minutes ago that Manchester United have been eyeing Ralf Rangnick the Lokomotiv Moscow coach for the interim coach of Manchester United for the rest of the season, is this sure? I think in my opinion Carrick also deserves to be the interim coach compared to Ralf Rangnick who was brought in from Lokomotiv Moscow.
Even this is under discussion until now, maybe the Man United management trusts other coaches more than Carrick.

Yeah, I have heard of it. But I'm not sure about whether he is the right choice for Manchester United. Maybe it is going to be a six-month contract but I don't know.  Grin  It is very critical for them to make the right decision now as they have to play much better to make up for the losses they've left behind so far. Otherwise, not much thing would change about them and I can't even imagine at what place they would end the Premier League.

I honestly want Carrick to take that position but honestly the fans right now are quite brutal so it is much better for someone else to take the blame for the rest of this season. There is a lot of expectation from the fans for Manchester United to atleast take top 4 or to win the UCL and honestly, Carrick might not be suited yet for this.

Well atleast not for now so instead of letting Carrick take the blame for unsatisfied fans because of the team's performance, I'd rather have someone else take it atleast until this season end. We had a bad start this season and I wouldnt even expect alot this season
Such a dishonor for carrick , the rumor has it .. manchester united have a verbarl agreement with ralf ragnick which yeah im not sure if he can do the great job there as you are not managing mediocre clubs of europe.
I can understand why they do that , united might looking some fortune as if then they hard to find the correct manager and ragnick doing well .. there is a potential for him to mamage united permanently.

not a really ideal one but there is not much option though

Le Parisien reports that PSG managed to persuade Zinedine Zidane to become the head of their club. According to the source, the French specialist is ready to sign a contract with the Parisians in the summer of 2022.

In Paris, they are not happy with the game of their team under Mauricio Pochettino, so they intend to get rid of the Argentinean. Besides, he is interesting for Manchester United.

Earlier, PSG received a refusal from Zidane, but the Frenchman accepted a second offer from the club, on better terms.

https://www.readfootball.com/pszh-smog-dogovoritsya-s-zidanom-na-ego-usloviyah-245771.html

From the start Zidane loved PSG and coincidentally his wife wanted to stay at Frances and didn't give him permission to go to Manchester United. So it is not strange when in fact Zidane will sign a contract with PSG. And on the contrary, Pochettino, who is being proposed by Ole, enters Manchester United. What will happen after this is really done? nothing else is worthy enough and Manchester United's reputation is on the cutting edge of choosing the right coach.
Just speculation only Zidane close agreement with PSG because Pochettino has one year later contract with PSG and still not any issues about his position not safe on PSG. I think depen what happen with PSG on champion league can qualify to final stage and get champion league trophy for the first time or not? Maybe if Pochettino failed make PSG can't pass to final his position is not safe.

Sir Alex Ferguson is also putting his weight behind Mauricio Pochettino to succeed Ole as Man Utd manager according to a report, as we are all aware that Ferguson has much influence on the club, he was responsible for convincing Ronaldo to re-sign for the club, since Pochettino is interested in the job he should sign immediately and let see how he is going to bring back the glory days, however I don't think he is going to find things easy after his appointment, going by the woeful performance of the club in the last 8 matches.

For more news on Ferguson backing Pochettino
link: https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/ferguson-man-utd-manager-solskjaer-25510202
This is exactly the same reason why I believe Zidane will go to PSG as well. The reason why Zidane "told" united he rejects the offer was that his wife didn't want to leave France which is where they live. If Pochettino gets a huge offer, he will resign, leave money on the table and not ask for anything which is fine by PSG and both parties can agree very easily, Pochettino will leave for United where he will get the backing of SAF and that means at least 2-3 years of testing anything he wants and he will have money to buy whoever he wants instead of owners making grand purchases for PR reasons, and he will be happy there.

On the other hand, Zidane will have players he could work with right away, he will still be in France like he wants to (or his wife) and he could get UCL if he could turn this team around. We are still in November but PSG doesn't look like a stable team just yet, they are great and could win it all but need to be stable, Zidane can achieve that.

Many managers are now starting to reject manchester united, making them now seem to have to keep carrick for a long time, several names continue to be associated with manchester united so far, from zidane, pochettino, laurent blanc and even Valvadre, but so far the coaches have reasons itself in rejecting Manchester, I think it might be time for Manchester to make Steve Bruce their next target if Valvadre also refuses to coach Grin.

To lead United now is a difficult test - there is no time for global changes, and the result is needed now. The club has a great roster, so any setbacks will be perceived as mistakes, so the new coach will be under strong pressure (Xavi, for example, has a much freer situation, since it is difficult to expect anything from Barcelona this season). Therefore, it is not surprising that many coaches will not want to take Ole's place now.

there are not many good and free coaches right now. many have already responded Poch, Rodgers..., although they have never been contacted with an offer

It seems United management finally do the right move. I did not follow Rangnick career, but what I read seems rather interesting. He sounds like the best choice in the post SAF era and it will certainly bring some improvements.

"Man Utd reach agreement with Ralf Rangnick to become interim manager. 6mnth contract then 2yr consultancy."

seems Carrick couldn't fit in the shoes of SAF and all past United managers to take up a permanent role. But Ralf Rangnick, who is this guy..need look him up asap, will he deliver and make a name for himself as he goes on the spotlight to manage a united side that's low on confidence, needs a defense overhaul and look forward to the transfer window to see who goes, who stays and who will be joining  Manchester united...just hope these guys aren't rushing things.
