Ralf Rangnick insists the confident level of the Manchester United players is affected as he says they need to stay focus in other to get the maximum points they can get.
Manchester United Interim manager Ralf Rangnick insists his side level of confidence has been affected claiming players who play for a club like United should always have external motivation.
The manager reflected on their loss against Everton in the Premier League last week as a concern to him.
Rangnick claimed his side controlled the game before a deflected shot beat David De Gea and then his side lost balance.
Speaking about the level of confidence in the team Rangnick said: The players who play for Manchester United should always have an eternal level of motivation, but, yes, if I look at the Everton game, until that first deflected shot on our goal we were in control of the game.
“Even if you concede a goal, a deflected shot, in football, and that can happen, we should still be aware that we are the better team and we can dominate the game, but it wasn’t the case, it’s got to do probably with confidence, whatever, you may call it motivation, but it’s definitely affected our level of confidence at that point.”
Manchester United lost their chance to move ahead of Arsenal on the League table against a struggling Everton.
The German then insists they need to take games step by step and also focus if they want to end the season well.
“I mean in football in general, this is what it’s all about, but even more so in our situation. It doesn’t make sense to speculate how other teams will play, or whether they will drop points or not.
“As long as we don’t win our own games, the other results will never be in our favour, so our focus is on tomorrow and, in front of again 75,000, play on the high level and win the three points.”
