United may be a little too harsh on Sir Alex's successors
It's no news that Manchester United are having an extremely hard time understanding the best way to be themselves (maybe the United they used to be during Sir Alex's days) as all odds seems not to be in their favor. Well, so many have tried and the struggle is still on, but it has never come near the result they could have wanted.
Ralf Rangnick who happens to be United's current manager has started off this season with his team having a sinusoidal form as they have only been able to gather 43 points after playing 25 matches, losing a whooping 32 points, which is equivalent to losing approximately 11 matches out of 25. Though little is to be blamed on Ralf, who only lost a single match ever since he took over as United's interim boss, he haven't utilized his opportunity to the fullest by acquiring more points.
The Red Devils are once again reminded by their counterparts that there's absolutely nothing for them again this season as far as the Premier League is concerned as the team topping Manchester United with the least point is Chelsea, with 4 points including an outstanding. The second and first on the premier league table are leading Ralf Rangnick's side with 11 points (with outstanding) and 20 points respectively as at the time of this article.
Recalling that Manchester United were shown the exit doors in the FA competition by Middlesbrough few weeks ago, the only competition left for the Red Devils to perform in and expect something from is the UEFA Champions League. And honestly, one could easily tell that the Ralf's side can barely survive the round of 16 talk less of reaching semi-finals with their current kind of form that makes it hard for them to be a better contender even at home. Unless of course, god of soccer is about to give us some leg over😊.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was relieved of his managerial duty at Old trafford after which Ralf Rangnick took over. Maybe the Norwegian was given time (almost 3 years) to prove himself, maybe he always saw defeat and has never dashed past the line of semi-finals for once during his course and maybe United were disappointed as he never won them any (major) trophy, some fans still believed that the former Manchester United boss started off with a good record than the current interim manager.
It was unarguably a disaster to ever even imagine that Manchester United will suffer a loss so disheartening, experiencing a huge damage and molestation from Liverpool at Old Trafford. And even if it has to happen, no one expected such fate will be suffered in the hands of no other club in England than Watford again in the same season. Maybe that was so so bad, but some fans still believe that a little more time may actually see some better changes.
Statistically speaking, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a better start at Old Trafford as a manager than any coach they've ever had. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as a manager, has more points in his first 10 games than any manager in the history of Premier league. This record seemed enough for some fans who believed that a little tweak is what the Norwegian needed to take United to the dream spot which was cut short as his contract was terminated.
Manchester United's worst start record in Premier League history was set by no other person than Alex Ferguson when the legend lost 4 out of his first 7 matches in the year 1989/1990, but whom enjoyed enough time to also prove to them how legendary he can be. This said, explained a lot of changes that have met this day's football as the patience exercised and time given to managers is short and may be not enough to prove themselves.
Ralf is known to be a tactical man, but hasn't landed himself the job yet as there's been speculation that United may go for Pochettino or the other two favourites. But who knows if Ralf can prove and land himself the job. Well, only time will tell if he can be better than his predecessor and prove himself to be the best option for the club with the most trophies in Premiers League. And who knows if that time doesn't even exist, judging with the impatience that's been the new style in some top clubs in England.
