Ralf Rangnick delivers honest assessment on Man Utd decision - “I don’t regret that at all"

Ralf Rangnick insists he has no regrets in taking over at Manchester United claiming "I would do it over and over again".

The German was appointed on an interim basis back in December but the problems at the club have seen him struggle for results. Rangnick arrived with an incredibly impressive reputation following his work in Germany, some of it as a coach and some as a sporting director.

He initially started well, even if performances were being covered up by results. But Rangnick has now won just eight of his 17 league matches - giving him the worst win percentage of any United boss in the Premier League era. He has been unable to implement the high press for which he is known and players have struggled to respond to his methods.

Erik ten Hag is set to come in this summer and take on the role permanently. United's hopes of finishing in the top four appear slim, but the German would still make the same decision if he could turn the clock back. He said: “No. No regrets whatsoever. I would do it over and over again,” he told reporters.

“I don’t regret that at all. As a manager you always have to question and ask yourself what you could have done better, if I could have played with a different formation in certain games, if a substitution could have been done earlier. This is what always happens we always ask question ourselves what we could have done better.

"I think we are all aware it’s not an easy squad, the whole situation was not easy or I would not be sitting here and Ole would probably still be here. Again, I think we have shown in the past couple of months we were able to raise the level but not in the same sustainable way that I would have wished. That’s the reason I’m not happy at all with what we’ve done
