Ralf Rangnick reportedly delivered a few home truths to Manchester United players who had become used to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s soft approach regarding missing matches with niggling injuries.
The German boss took charge on an interim basis in November following Solskjaer’s sacking and has been tasked with securing a top-four finish this season.
Rangnick has already endured his fair share of problems off the pitch with leaks coming out of the dressing room about disharmony within the squad as well as suggestions the players have shown a lack of respect towards the coaching staff.
According to the Independent, the former RB Leipzig boss ‘b*******d’ his players upon walking into the ‘mess’ at the club which saw some criticised for their poor attitude under Solskjaer with some taking advantage of his soft approach.
Under Solskjaer’s tenure, it’s claimed it became an ‘open secret’ in the dressing room that little niggles could see players miss away games they weren’t necessarily keen to play with players showing a lack of commitment to the Norwegian.
It was the complete opposite approach to Jose Mourinho, who previously questioned the mentality of ‘Injured’ players, taking aim at Chris Smalling and Luke Shaw who pulled out of a match against Swansea, often demanding his stars play to their absolute limit.
Rangnick’s attempts to deliver some home truths to United’s players in a bid to rescue what has been a dismal season can only really be judged come the end of the season.
