Man Utd boss Rangnick calls for defensive stability ahead of Liverpool game

The Hindu  

Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick on Monday urged his side to display more defensive solidity ahead of a crucial run-in that will determine Champions League qualification and likely define his tenure as interim boss. Rangnick, who succeeded Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in November last year, has struggled to turn around United's season following a dismal start, with the team three points adrift of Tottenham Hotspur in fourth. "We need to be more compact, we need to find the right balance of what we do in possession of the ball and what we need to do in order to defend our own goal," Rangnick told reporters ahead of Tuesday's visit to second-placed Liverpool. Rangnick said that Liverpool, who trail leaders Manchester City by a point, will start as favourites but his side was capable of causing an upset.
