Manchester United legend Paul Scholes made a bold choice back in early 2022 when discussing who he felt should succeed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as Red Devils manager.
The morale around Old Trafford was particularly low, Solskjaer had been relieved of his duties in late 2021 after a particularly dire run of results came to a head with a 4-1 battering at the hands of Watford. Ralf Rangnick was appointed as interim boss until the end of the 2021/22 season, before transitioning into an upstairs role within the club hierarchy in a consultancy role.
Well, that was the plan at least. Things didn't quite work out that way, but while Rangnick was sitting in the United hot seat and expected to become part of the board the following season, a whole plethora of names was touted when it came to who would be the next permanent figure in the role.
