Rangnick has been appointed by United after Ole Gunner Solskjaer has been relieved from his work.

What Keane said/
“I don’t have a problem with it,” Keane said of Rangnick’s appointment.
“The big decision is getting the right manager in [after Rangnick] and getting players like Fernandes and Ronaldo to start running.
“Man Utd have talented players in possession but the game is also about out of possession. They have the talent but it needs coaching.
“We hope [that the Rangnick appointment is a breakthrough], we hope so. The proof will be in the pudding over the next few years when we see who comes into the club, and that it’s not because you know somebody or have a certain agent.
“You hope whoever does come into the club starts to make the right decisions, get the right people in for the job, and not because someone might know somebody, or they are a decent guy. You’ve got to go and work with people who are good at their jobs.”
Meanwhile, Liverpool legend and Skysports pundit Jamie Carragher believes that Rangnick will transform United.
The likes of Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel and Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp play the same playing style with Rangnick.
What Carragher said.
“I think the appointment of Rangnick will be a positive step in terms of how he wants football played,” Carragher said on Sky Sports’ Super Sunday, ahead of confirmation of Rangnick’s appointment on Monday morning.
“The top teams in European football, and three of them are in the Premier League, all play the way Rangnick has always wanted his teams to play going back 20 years.

“The top teams in European football, and three of them are in the Premier League, all play the way Rangnick has always wanted his teams to play going back 20 years.
“Top-level football is played like that and Manchester United were a million miles away from that.
“Rangnick is coming in now to make sure that Manchester United get back into the Champions League for next season.
“But Rangnick’s biggest job is identifying the next coach. The top people at the club will be taking advice from him. He will want the next coach to be in his image so he’ll be almost getting them ready for the next coach and how they want to play.”
