Press conference MU vs Brentford: Rangnick revealed his upcoming role, reporting bad news about Sancho

Coach Ralf Rangnick shared about the upcoming work at MU as well as the situation of the force before the match with Brentford.

Upcoming work at the club

For me, the most important thing is to focus on recruiting. We’ll try to bring in the best players we can, but we can’t say who they are yet. Once the target is identified, we need to have meetings and convince them to join the team even if MU unable to qualify for the Champions League next season. That is what I find most important in my upcoming job at MU.

Coach Ralf Rangnick

In addition, I will also look at the young talents that have grown up from the team’s academy and find the best fit. Mason Greenwood is a prime example, he’s the best young talent I’ve come across in the last few years. We will try to find similar players. That’s my job for the next 1-2 years.

Opinions about recruiting experienced players but still not successful

My personal opinion is that the team should find players who can become future stars and train them. But the difficult point is the need to find such young talents. Erling Haaland is a prime example. He is only 21, 22 years old and has grown in the last 1 or 2 years to become one of the most expensive players in the world. I hope MU also has such players of its own.

Is MU still the club that the players want to go to?

MU is definitely such a team when it has many remarkable points such as stadiums, fans, training ground or youth training system. But we also need to be realistic because ChelseaLiverpool or Man City all have their own strengths.

Therefore, MU needs to have better results to attract players. The burden will be placed on Erik’s (Ten Hag) shoulders. It all depends on what he wants. Like me or Jurgen Klopp, Thomas Tuchel and certainly Pep Guardiola, we will communicate and talk directly with the target being targeted.

That’s very important, the coach needs to explain his goal of transferring his role at the team and the goal of development of the team. From there, the best players for the team will emerge.

Force situation

Fred hasn’t been able to come back for the Chelsea game even though he really wants to play. Jadon Sancho may have to miss the whole season because of tonsillitis. Cavani is expected to return in the match against Brentford after a period of convalescence. I’m not sure he will start but he can come on from the bench.

We have to wait for the results of Maguire’s medical while Lingard is absent for family reasons against Chelsea. I hope some players can be back in the game next Monday.

Tell me more about Sancho’s situation

He has tonsillitis and just had it removed. With what I know and the rest of the season, I think it’s hard for him to recover in time. I’m not sure for the game against Crystal Palace but the next two games he’s definitely absent.

MU’s future

I am very optimistic about this. We have one of the best coaches in Europe right now, Erik Ten Hag and the team is also planning to rebuild the squad. Those two things can create a new look for MU in the near future
