Rangnick: I Spoke With Solskjear Over The Squad

 Rangnick conducted his first press conference as United boss on Friday morning and spoke about ex-United manager Solskjaer's classy touch at the weekend.

 "I spoke with Ole for almost two hours on Sunday," he revealed.

 "He was very generous, gave me his insight on the team. 

 He also refused to rule out becoming the club's permanent manager if his time in charge goes well over the next six months. 

 "In the ideal world, we will be in the top four regularly but also playing for titles," he said. 

"We are still in the Champions League and can hopefully get further in that competition. 

The DNA of the club is clear. "I have, of course, watched all the most recent games, even before contact from the club. 

I'm pretty well aware of what's happening here, and in the Premier League. It's clear the team have abundantly talented players. 

 "The major target for me is to bring more balance into the team. Even yesterday we conceded two goals and needed three to win the game. 

We're conceding too much. It's my approach to help the team, to get more balance. 

 "[The squad] is definitely good enough to compete in the top [four]. The top three are very stable, and have great coaches.

 This is something we have to develop. 

When Jurgen came to Liverpool, the squad he inherited was not a better one than what I have now at Manchester United."
