The problem still lies in the coach who is not suitable for Manchester United, because if Rangnick is the exact coach then at least Rangnick can give good results against weaker teams. In fact, Manchester United can still be held to a draw by Burnley, in fact Burnley is currently at the bottom of the standings. See how Tuchel worked for Chelsea even though only with players who were there at the time of his debut for Chelsea but Tuchel could give the UCL title straight away at that time. At least that's a great thing when the coach fits into the team, here at Manchester United they still haven't got an exact coach.
Ragnick can be a good coach in another club but it does not mean that he will be a perfect coach for Manchester United. So far, he does not satisfy expectation of the club or their fans.
Based on his management and results so far, I think Manchester United are right to not sign a long term contract with him. A temporary contract is better for the club in general because they will not have to pay compensation fee if they sack Ragnick.
It is time for Manchester United to play their absent game tonight. They are going to play a home game against Brighton and this is a tough game for them surely. Brighton haven't lost in the Premier League for seven weeks and this would affect them positively. Manchester United should get prepared really well for this game. They need an immediate win to get rid of this poor form. I don't expect a very comfortable win but I still want to believe that they will be winning this time by a one-goal gap. It could end like 2-1.
Every game now is a tough game for Manchester United but if they can handle internal things and boost their player mentality stronger and more positively, I am sure they can come back. In fact, their player quality is not too bad but the bad thing is in their coach position. From Ole to Ragnick, I don't see they control their players too good. It is bad from a foundation for any success. Next, tactics can be another serious issue. So far, Ragnick has been still unclear on what tactics is best in the club. Players might feel unclear about it as well.
