Teddy Sheringham names the two managers that should replace Ralf Rangnick as Manchester United permanent manager
Former Manchester United striker Teddy Sheringham has named two managers who should succeed Ralf Rangnick as Manchester United permanent manager.
Rangnick was appointed on a six-month contract until the end of the season following Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sacking last month. The 63-year old is also expected to move into a consultancy role at the club.
“I think Mauricio Pochettino or Brendan Rodgers would be quite perfect for the job,” Sheringham told the MEN.
“Rodgers is very calm in the way that he works things for his football teams, he gets results, he wins things, he won the FA Cup last year, so he’ll be delighted with that.
“But also the way Pochettino plays his football, the way he dictates a lot of games. He takes the game to the opposition. His teams play with an identity that you want from a manager.
“You want to know how you’re going to play a game. You can see what he’s trying to work at. And I think, you know, he has that demeanour that would make him an ideal candidate for the Manchester United job as well.”
