Former Manchester United centre-back Jaap Stam has warned interim manager Ralf Rangnick that he faces something of a challenge in his attempts to win the trust of the club's most senior players.
The Dutchman, who represented United between 1998 and 2001, made the admission ahead of the Reds' dramatic 1-0 win over West Ham United at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon, in which Marcus Rashford netted a 93rd-minute winner to clinch all three points.
Victory for United clinched a sixth win in ten games under the stewardship of Rangnick so far, meaning the German has enjoyed a steady start to life in the role, even though it is still felt that there is a lot more to come in terms of United's performance levels, with their recent displays having come under heavy criticism.
