Manchester United's Nemanja Matic has admitted that 'it's not easy' for any manager to take over a club on an interim basis.
United were expected to contend for the Premier League title this season but that challenge never began. United have been reduced to fighting for Champions League football instead and Ralf Rangnick's spell at Old Trafford has been far from straightforward.
Rangnick was appointed on an interim basis until the end of the season in November and some questioned that decision. It has been suggested the German lacks authority because he's just an interim manager and Matic, speaking ahead of United's match against Leicester on Saturday evening, seemed to agree with that assessment.
