It's the sort of journey hardcore members of the Barmy Army know well – and now so does the Manchester United manager.
Ralf Rangnick used the international break as an opportunity to jet out of the UK and head to somewhere a little warmer in the month of March. So he headed to Barbados, where he took in a completely different sport to the one he has made a career in.
Just days after his United side crashed out of the Champions League against Atletico Madrid, he was watching an entirely different type of Test. Germans aren't known for their cricket, but Rangnick was in the stands at the Kensington Oval, watching the action during day four of the second Test between West Indies and England.
