Rangnick set to take over at Man Utd, says his lawyer

Ralf Rangnick • Coaching philosophy, tactics and data-driven football strategy • CV Live Wembley

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZskzUKsNwU

There will now be 4 German (-speaking) coaches in the Premier League: Tuchel, Klopp, Hasenhüttl and Rangnick.
BTW, Rangnick had studied to become a teacher of English and Sports before he started his coaching career.
--------------------
This is Hasenhüttl after the 4:0 defeat against Klopp's team today. He is Austrian and coached Leipzig when Rangnick was director there.

Harry Kane joining Bayern

Blue: Harry Kane joining Bayern? Oh, that would be absolutely fantastic! He's a world-class striker and would be a perfect fit for Bayern's attacking style of play.

Red: Harry Kane joining Bayern? What a waste of talent that would be! Bayern already has an incredible team, they don't need to spend fortunes on another striker.

Blue: But think about the possibilities! Kane's goal-scoring ability combined with Bayern's exceptional midfield and wingers would be a recipe for success.

Red: Success? Bayern is already dominating the Bundesliga. Bringing in Kane would just create unnecessary competition among the forwards and disrupt team chemistry.

Blue: Disrupt? I believe Kane's professionalism and adaptability would allow him to seamlessly integrate into Bayern's squad. He would elevate their performances even further.

Red: Elevate? Bayern doesn't need elevating. They're already at the top. Kane should focus on leading Tottenham to success instead of chasing trophies elsewhere.

Blue: Well, I respect your opinion, but I can't help but imagine the incredible partnership Kane could form with players like Lewandowski and Müller at Bayern. It would be a dream come true for many football fans.

continue

Blue: I understand your concerns, but Harry Kane joining Bayern München would be a dream transfer for many football enthusiasts. Just imagine the lethal combination of Kane's clinical finishing and Bayern's dynamic attacking style.

Red: Dream transfer? More like a nightmare for opposing defenses. Bayern already has an incredibly strong team, and adding Kane would just make them even more unstoppable. It's not fair to the other teams in the league.

Blue: Football isn't about fairness, it's about competition and pushing the boundaries of what is possible. Kane's arrival at Bayern would create a formidable force that would raise the level of the game.

Red: Raising the level? Bayern is already at the pinnacle of European football. Bringing in Kane would just create an unbalanced team that steamrolls over their opponents. Where's the excitement in that?

Blue: The excitement lies in witnessing the incredible talent of Kane meshing with the collective brilliance of Bayern's squad. It would be a spectacle of footballing excellence.

Red: Spectacle or not, I still stand by my belief that Kane should stay loyal to Tottenham and lead them to success. Bayern can find other ways to strengthen their team without destabilizing others.

Blue: Loyalty is important, but football is also about ambition and pushing oneself to new heights. Kane deserves a chance to compete at the highest level and challenge for major honors.

Red: Well, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one. I still think Kane should stay put, but you're entitled to your own opinion.
