The night is young
The mood is mellow
And there's music in my ears
Say is Nick there ?

Very good appointment by them. He is someone they could have done with a few years back. Wouldn’t be in this mess now if so.

I don't know much about him, but apparently he developed Gegenpressing, which is the style used by Klopp.

Having seen more clips of him he does, joking apart, sound very much like our Sean! What to do when you have the ball, what to do without it, transitions and set pieces.

As Martin Samuel put it in the Mail today, what happens if He's a great success and they finish top four....why get rid?
Equally, if he's a flop, who'd bother to consult him?

Tricky stuff....not that I give a monkey's arse about United. Be quite amusing if they keep screwing up.

he made Jurgen Klopp
Took Schalke to the UCL semi final and won the cup
back to back promotions with Hoffenheim
got Hannover promoted

He was the brains behind the huge success of both Red Bull clubs.

I don't know if he's still got what's needed for the managerial role but he'll be a huge asset to them in a director of football role.

I hope he is a hopeless flop. I hope he upsets all the players who think they are superstars to the point of leaving and frustrates the up and coming players. I hope he upsets Ferguson, their plastic fans and their greedy American owners.

Ralf Rangnick must convince the FA he can take charge at Man United https://mol.im/a/10259879 via http://dailym.ai/android

Turns out he doesn't meet the visa criteria because he hasn't spent enough time managing during recent years.

Should he get a visa? Does he have unique skills that an eligible UK manager doesn’t have? Brexit - you get what you vote for!!

If he can secure failure for Newton Heath, yes.
