It's weird that it's become a thing.

Is it because the team medics get involved? So if there's an injury on the pitch, the medics are already in action elsewhere.

I thought it was everyone dying from the evil vaccine.

It looks like a significant defensive improvement until you remember that Rangnick has so far faced much easier opposition - the likes of Burnley and Norwich instead of Liverpool and Chelsea. I am not sure Ole would have done much worse against the bottom-feeders.
 
Who would have thought a sporting Director with limited managerial experience in the last 3 years wouldnt make an impact? Good for us that Utd are run by idiots.
 
All you need to stfu.

The man has reduced their goals conceded by more than half. He needs a contract immediately. Preferably a £400,000/week, life time contract with a "No Severance" Clause.

Rangnick is not a great coach, but to be honest he would gradually move them in the right direction if given time and power to make big decisions - which is exactly why he probably won’t get the job. He will be a “consultant” after the end of the season, which means United will pay him for advice they don’t have to follow.
- “I think you should appoint Ten Hag”
- “Thanks, but Pochettino is our preferred candidate”
- “And sell Maguire”
- “No”
- “OK. Where do I pick up my consultancy cheque?”
- “No worries, the £££ is already in your account and we really appreciate your invaluable advice!”

Great gig if you can get it.
 
To be absolutely fair to them [can't believe I'm saying that] wasn't that more or less the plan all along?

And where does this leave Paul "Blue Rinse" Pogba, who was recently quoted as saying he'd be willing to stay if Rangnick got the permanent job? Though I guess they might think that would be one more reason for not giving it to Rangnick....
 
What’s going on? I thought they were meant to be decent.

An off day or symptomatic of wider issues?

I think Dortmund is seemingly now more interesting in being a finishing school for upcoming talent which it then sells for a tidy profit.

Yeah I get that but still a decent team on paper - wouldn’t expect them to get battered by Rangers.

Yes, exactly this - but they must have promised some level of competitiveness to the likes of Haaland and Bellingham; having Keystone cops at the back undoing all of your good work must be insanely frustrating.
 
Dortmund have become an embarrassment. Bayern have won the league 9 years in a row, and will make it 10 this year.

It's not like Dortmund are small fry with absolutely no chance of competing with Bayern. What exactly is their purpose if they never put up a title fight in their domestic league?
 
Speaking of which, I don't understand why Sule decided to make a free transfer to Dortmund from Bayern Munich this summer.
