McTominay gives insight into Rangnick's first Man Utd team meetings

Scott McTominay has revealed an insight into Ralf Rangnick's early team meetings at Manchester United.

The Red Devils have looked a stronger unit in their first two games under Rangnick after a slump in form under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Rangnick secured victory against Crystal Palace in his debut last weekend, before a much-changed side were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Young Boys.

McTominay started in the win over Palace, and is expected to be a key man for Rangnick's Gegenpressing outfit.

And the Scot has revealed that his new boss has taken little time to get his point across.

"He's very firm, very driven and knows what he wants. In meetings he is very clear, that's the way it is in football. To get your point across, you have to be clear and you have to be forceful," McTominay told Sky Sports News.

"If players are not doing what you are asking, then he is not shy to tell you as well. The first early impressions are very, very good.

"We had a good result against Crystal Palace and hopefully now we can move forward now and keep winning football games.

"Football changes quick and you have just got to get on with your job.

"For us, we are just listening and we are learning. We are wanting to do well for his ideas and what he wants and ultimately win games.

"That's what him and his coaching staff have come to do - help us win games and keep progressing."

McTominay also explained how Rangnick would be looking employ the high-press system, with much of the work coming on his patch in midfield.

"Pretty much every team in the Premier League presses the middle of the pitch with the biggest intensity," he added.

"His ideas in that respect is that the most regains leading to goals will probably be through the middle of the pitch, maybe little passes that get intercepted.

"It's being streetwise, it's being smart. It [Rangnick's thinking] is flexible and easy to understand as well."
