Rangnick: "It was a little bit new but not that new, it doesn't make that much difference if Jadon plays a little further inside or outside but defensively they both did well." |
Rangnick: "The most challenging, demanding positions in that formation [4-2-2-2] are the two 10s but I still think, especially when Palace was in possession, Bruno and Jadon did well." |
Rangnick: "They [Bruno & Sancho] almost played like wing-backs. Especially in the first-half, Alex [Telles] and Diogo [Dalot], did extremely well offensively and that's why I played 4-2-2-2. I'm a big fan of every player plays in his best possible position." |
Rangnick: "At the same time, with Jadon [Sancho] and Bruno on the two 10 positions, for the rest [of the players] it was the same. We had enough space with Bruno and Jadon in those 10 positions for our full-backs to play forward and ask for the ball on the wing." |
Rangnick: "For me, the question was how do we get pressure on the ball, how do we get control? So I decided to play 4-2-2-2 with two strikers, not Cristiano alone up front, together with Marcus [Rashford], using pace for vertical balls." |
Rangnick: "Maybe the last three or four minutes, they took all the risk they could, we had to defend corner kicks and free-kicks but did in a very brave way. Harry [Maguire] being injured, coming back again. It was a perfect first game for us to play." |
Rangnick: "I'm more than happy with a clean sheet, a beautiful goal with his weak right foot by Fred! It was about gaining control and we had control most of the time in the game." |
Rangnick: "For me it was clear you cannot play the whole game, 90 minutes, at this level of intensity. But even after that we had control of the game. Second-half, we started again well and, in the end, we deserved to win." |
Rangnick: "I was positively surprised by the physical state & intensity, the first half-hour was amazing. I felt it was extremely high-tempo, high intensity, always on the front foot, the only thing missing in the first half-hour was not scoring one, two or three goals." |
Rangnick: "In those 45 minutes on the pitch [at Carrington] we explained how we want to play, which manner we want to play and the rest was video footage, a lot of personal conversations with players, individual, in groups, explaining to them how we want to play." |
Rangnick: "We had not even a full training session yesterday because it was 45 minutes, it was pouring. It was not just Manchester weather, it was disgusting, it was heavy, raining, windy, so it was almost impossible to train in a concentrated and focused manner." |
Rangnick: "I must admit I was surprised [by Manchester United performance]. I was a bit surprised, because not only did we play Thursday, a late kick-off, we had two days less to recover compared to Crystal Palace." |
Rangnick: "He's [Fred] a wonderful boy. This is one thing I can say even after two days I've heard a lot about him from Ole. Right now I can only say it's great to have a boy like him in the team." |
Fred: "Mason [Greenwood] gave me a good ball. In that moment I was just looking to shoot with my right foot and score a goal, and it happened! I'm very blessed and so happy to score one more goal at Old Trafford for our fans." |
Rangnick: "The first thirty minutes I was really impressed; high speed, high intensity and high tempo." |
Rangnick: "I had to ask my assistant coach if that was Fred's right foot. I thought he could only shoot with his left! I'm happy for him." |
Rangnick: "It's always easier to build on things after you're successful. We must produce further clean sheets and get better at creating chances for our attack. Overall I was very pleased with the way we played today." |
Rangnick: "We wanted to play with two strikers, especially in the central position. By the way, Cristiano Ronaldo's work off the ball, chapeau." |
Rangnick: "The way we defended, we had control of the whole game, the clean sheet was the most important part. "These are the things we must improve. We need to keep clean sheets. With just the one training session, I was really impressed. We did better than expected." |
Rangnick: "I am very happy with the way the team performed, especially the first half hour, with the pressing, it was exceptional. The only thing missing was the 1-0 or 2-0." |
Rangnick: "We always tried to be on the front foot. We were never not apart from maybe the last five minutes. At all other times we were trying to keep them away from our goal." |

Joebayo217: ![]() We must complain sha. AWB has played against same Club more than once at OT, yet we lost. |
Rangnick: "It is important to start winning games regularly in the short-term then step by step, build the team in the right direction beyond that. We want to train the players' brains and encourage them to do the right things until they become second nature." |
Rangnick: "If you want to win a football match, you have to control it, so the aim right now is to help the team control games more. That means being more proactive with and without the ball." |
Rangnick: "I look at guys like Jadon Sancho, who I know from the Bundesliga, Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford, and I am very much looking forward to working with the entire squad and helping them all to make the most of their obvious talent." |
Rangnick: "Right now, I am here because development is what needs to happen again. Nobody at the club is happy to be where we are in the Premier League table." |
