Ralf Rangnick has identified Manchester United’s needs to achieve its revolution. He told his management that he needed 3 transfer windows and 18 months to finally bring the club back to the top.
“It is obvious that something has to be changed, something has to be rebuilt this summer. The team might need a few more talented, hungry players who really want to develop their own careers. (…) I don’t think we should focus on signing big names. Ralf Rangnick made no secret of it in the press. According to him, Manchester United needs a revolution in order to finally be able to compete with the English and European elite.
What the German coach swung to the media, he detailed it to his management. The interim is not only supposed to lead the first team to the top, but he must also carry out an audit of the situation for his successor and for his leaders, so that they can adjust the cursor. In addition to that, the draw of the Red Devils (1-1) against Leeds this weekend did not help the situation of the current 7th in the Premier League, who is also eliminated from the Champions League.
Rangnick needs 3 transfer windows

The first is to determine a style of play, as Manchester City has been able to do with Guardiola and Liverpool with Klopp in recent years. According to him, this is how a team is built and achieves long-term results. The second point is physical. In the Premier League, more aggressive players are needed, as the English press reported yesterday.
Then you have to attack the transfer window. Rangnick’s third point concerns the profile of recruits. It is a question of determining well in mountain the DNA of the player, to know if it is compatible with the philosophy of game of the club. Finally, and this is probably where it will be the most complicated for Manchester United, the German explained that it would take 18 months and 3 transfer windows for the club to manage to modify its workforce in depth and return to the top thanks to its precepts. This might be a bit long…
