Former Manchester United interim boss Ralf Rangnick has previously offered a glowing verdict of Reds-linked Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Current United<\/a> manager Ruben Amorim finds himself under huge pressure following the 3-1 defeat at Brentford on Saturday<\/a>. The Manchester Evening News reported on Monday that Amorim retains the backing of United’s board as things stand,<\/a> but his future continues to dominate headlines.<\/p>\n

Amorim has taken just 34 points from a possible 99 in the Premier League<\/a> during his time in charge. United decision-makers were forced to clarify his position following the Carabao Cup humiliation to Grimsby Town last month.<\/p>\n

It comes amid claims that United have compiled a three-man shortlist to potentially replace the former Sporting boss if things don’t improve. It is said that former England manager Gareth Southgate, Andoni Iraola and Glasner<\/a> are of interest as pressure mounts on Amorim<\/a> to arrest United’s alarming decline.<\/p>\n

Rangnick, who endured a difficult interim spell at Old Trafford<\/a> in 2021\/22, has previously provided a hugely positive assessment of Glasner’s coaching abilities.<\/p>\n

“For me, Oliver Glasner is currently one of the most exciting coaches – not only in Germany, but in all of Europe. An absolute top coach,” Rangnick said via LAOLA1<\/a> in March 2023.<\/p>\n

Glasner has been widely praised for his excellent work at Palace, who are currently on an 18-match unbeaten streak across all competitions. The South London side won the FA Cup<\/a> last term – stunning Manchester City<\/a> – before also lifting the Community Shield with victory over Liverpool<\/a> in August.<\/p>\n

Palace also recorded another win over Arne Slot’s team on Saturday – ending their unbeaten start to the season.<\/p>\n

Speculation is now building on whether an approach will be made for Glasner before the season ends, with the Austrian also deploying a back-three system similar to the one Amorim deploys.<\/p>\n
