Graeme Souness uses Ralf Rangnick insult to highlight Erik ten Hag's Man Utd challenge

Graeme Souness declared "most people can't" remember Ralf Rangnick's name in a damning verdict on Erik ten Hag's predecessor at Manchester United.

Rangnick replaced Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as United manager on an interim basis in late 2021 but struggled to bring about any upturn in form before leaving Old Trafford this summer. The Red Devils did not come close to winning any silverware and limped over the line to finish sixth in the Premier League under the 64-year-old.

Souness views Rangnick's brief spell in the United hot seat as so unremarkable that he even forgot the manager's name while speaking on the radio on Monday. His comments also served a warning to Ten Hag, who "must get more from" his squad than his forebear if he is to be a success at the club.
