Pundit blasts ‘shocking’ and ‘brutal’ Man United move
Frank McAvennie has slammed the Man United decision-makers following the “weird” appointment of Ralf Rangnick.
The former West Ham hitman, speaking exclusively to Football Insider, insists the German commands no respect.
On Tuesday (4 January) The Mirror reported as many as 11 players want to leave Man United after becoming “disillusioned” with life at the club.
It was also claimed some of the players are underwhelmed by Rangnick and are not impressed by his tactics.
This came after Man United were beaten 1-0 by Wolves on Tuesday (4 January) in a severe blow to their top-four hopes.
McAvennie is not surprised to hear this report and claims the Red Devils will struggle to qualify for Europe this season.
“I thought appointing this guy was weird,” McAvennie told Football Insider correspondent Ben Wild.
“You are bringing a guy in for six months, why? That makes absolutely no sense.
“He’s going to tell the players what to do and they are all telling him ‘shut up, you won’t be here next season’.
“It’s no disrespect to Rangnick or the players, it’s just human nature. It’s a simple thing.
“How does the guy have any authority, all of this stuff sounds brutal. It hasn’t started well for him and everyone knows he’s here until the end of the season.
“They will struggle to get Europa League football if they carry on like this.
“It’s been a shocking decision to get this guy in, I didn’t think it could get worse.
“They were garbage against Newcastle and not much better against Wolves last night.
“It’s a sorry state of affairs there, I can’t understand it.”
