‘It’s obvious’ – Rangnick offers help to Ten Hag over transfers; details response to loss Ralf Rangnick is willing to help incoming boss Erik ten Hag when it comes to Manchester United transfers, while the German has also revealed the response to the Liverpool defeat. Ten Hag will take over as manager at the end of the campaign after signing a three-year contract. However, his capture also comes at a difficult time for the club. They were beaten 4-0 by Liverpool in their last outing. It was a dreadful display from Manchester United and was met with dismay from club legend Gary Neville. The only positive the pundit could pick out was Hannibal Mejbri’s substitute appearance, as the youngster at least got in the faces of his opponents. The defeat at Anfield left United in sixth place, three points behind Arsenal and Tottenham. They have also played an extra match than their rivals for fourth spot. That means there is more pressure on Rangnick’s men to beat Arsenal away from home this weekend. United need to ‘play far better’ – Ralf Rangnick At the pre-match press conference, Rangnick was asked if the clash is a ‘must win’ for his team. “I don’t think that it makes sense to speculate about how likely it still is for us to finish fourth or wherever,” he replied (via Manchester Evening News). “It doesn’t make sense, after a performance like that at Liverpool. “We just need to make sure we play far better. This is the only way to deal with it. “We need to get the best possible team on the pitch and play in a different way, with more conviction, more confidence and more aggressive behaviour on the pitch. We will have to show a completely different performance.” Reporters asked Rangnick how his coaches and players reacted to the recent defeat. “We only trained yesterday because the day after the game was recovery,” he said. “Yesterday we trained some issues in connection with the game, but the only real training session we’re going to have is now in an hour’s time. “They [the players] were as disappointed as we all were, so it’s up to the players and us to show a reaction on the pitch tomorrow.” German offers to help Ten Hag with squad Ten Hag has been tipped to make serious changes to the United squad over the summer. When asked about potential outgoings, Rangnick said ‘it’s obvious’ players will leave. He also reiterated the need for a ‘rebuild’. “I mean, it’s obvious there are quite a few players with their contracts expiring,” Rangnick said. “There might be a few others who – although they have contracts – they are already on loan and still want to be on loan or leave the club. “It will be a significant change and rebuild necessary, that’s clear. But how many players and which positions, as I’ve said, I’ve not spoken to Erik in person yet. “If he asks me my opinion in person, I’m willing to speak to him about my experience. But on the other hand, he’ll also have his own ideas.” READ MORE: Man Utd face threat in Milinkovic-Savic pursuit with surprise club set to use inside man The post ‘It’s obvious’ – Rangnick offers help to Ten Hag over transfers; details response to loss appeared first on TEAMtalk.
