Ralf Rangnick must drastically improve Manchester United's full-backs if he is to be a success at Old Trafford, according to Paul Ince.
Earlier this week, the German was confirmed as United's interim manager until the end of the season and could take charge of his first game on Sunday when Crystal Palace travel to Old Trafford.
One of the architects of Gegenpressing (counter-pressing), Rangnick is expected to turn United from a side that often looked disjointed when trying to win the ball back under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer into a high-intensity pressing team.
Paul Ince believes Ralf Rangnick must improve Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw
Ince believes getting more out of Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Luke Shaw will be high on the German's list of priorities.
‘I think what he’d [Rangnick] want more is from his full-backs. You look at the full-backs putting balls into the box […] he needs to work with Wan-Bissaka, he really does,' he told "The United Stand.
‘How can I put it? From an attacking point of view, the modern game is about players getting forward, we’ve seen it with [Trent] Alexander-Arnold and [Andy] Robertson.
