Jurgen Klopp Reacts To Ralf Rangnick Joining Manchester United
Ralf Rangnick’s imminent arrival to Manchester United is “not good news for other teams”, according to Jurgen Klopp.
United have agreed to a six-month deal with Rangnick to take over as interim manager until the summer following the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The Norwegian, despite doing a commendable job in rebuilding the squad, failed to establish a coherent system on the pitch, with his side conceding stupid goals on a regular basis this season.
Regarded as a tactical visionary in Germany, Rangnick seems exactly the sort of coach the star-studded roster needs at Carrington.
His expertise has influenced the likes Klopp and Thomas Tuchel – with whom he’d go head-to-head in the Premier League now.
Klopp, who has previously declared Rangnick as “one of the best, if not the best German coach”, believes his fellow countryman will add organisation – a lack of which was exploited by his Liverpool side at Old Trafford last month – to the United side.
“Yeah, unfortunately a good coach is coming to England, that’s how it is, to Manchester United,” the Liverpool boss said in his press conference ahead of the Southampton clash.

“United will be organised, I think, on the pitch. I think we should realise that and that’s obviously not good news for other teams.”
The incoming interim United manager might be a worry for his rivals in the league, but the young coaching duo of Michael Carrick and Kieran McKenna can learn a lot from the German, if he decides to keep them in his backroom staff.
