Manchester United fans were left questioning their own players once again after seeing Ralf Rangnick’s Austria impress for the second time in a week as they drew with France on Friday night.
Ralf Rangnick might be wrong with David de Gea transfer comment at Manchester United
25.05.2022 - 15:05 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Ralf Rangnick may not have been able to make an impact on the pitch whatsoever during his time at Manchester United, but he certainly has off it.
The interim manager finished his stint in charge at United with a worse winning percentage than Gary Neville managed in his disastrous tenure at Valencia. Things did not go well in the slightest. So the fact that Rangnick still maintains the respect of the majority of supporters just proves how much they have valued his no-nonsense, no excuses evaluations of the club.
Everything the German has said about the sorry state of United has been bang on the money and it has been such a relief to hear someone within the walls finally express it. However, he may have been wrong in one instance.

Following the final match at Old Trafford this season, Rangnick discussed where United need to strengthen in the summer transfer market and the only position he excluded from the list was goalkeeper. He told Sky Sports: "Apart from goalkeeping where we have three excellent goalkeepers in Tom Heaton, Dean Henderson and David de Gea, in all other areas there will be players leaving the club.
"I wouldn't put focus on special areas of the pitch — it should go through the whole team. It's obvious quite a few players will leave and there is a need for top-quality players."
While he certainly isn't wrong with the fact that United need reinforcements all over the pitch to give Erik ten Hag the best chance of being an immediate success, he might have stopped too short in saying that a new goalkeeper isn't needed as well.
David de Gea has enjoyed a great season. Of that, there can be little doubt.
