Mikael Silvestre has urged Ralf Rangnick to switch to a more defensive formation when his former side Manchester United travel to face Man City in the Premier League this weekend. The interim manager has favoured a more attacking approach since taking charge of the club, but United never lost a match away at City while former boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was in charge.
Most of those memorable away performances were with United embracing their tag as underdogs for the match, with the Norwegian often selecting three centre-backs to combat the attacking threat of their opponents.
Rangnick has toyed with different defensive partnerships from a trio of Harry Maguire, Raphael Varane and Victor Lindelof since he took charge of the club and faces a difficult decision in selecting his starting duo this weekend.
