Man United coach: The team's hopes of qualifying for the Champions League are "unrealistic"

German coach Ralf Rangnick said today that Manchester United's hopes of fourth place in the English Premier League, and qualifying for the European Champions next season, are "unrealistic", and that "the team must live with this matter."

This came in statements by the coach, on the eve of hosting Chelsea tomorrow in a match presented from the 37th stage.

United enters the match at Old Trafford, following two losses against Liverpool and Arsenal, respectively, which ended its logical hopes of achieving fourth place, after its score froze at 54 points, six points behind Arsenal, who played a lesser match.

And he will miss the confrontation presented due to Chelsea's busyness in the cup final against Liverpool on May 14 at "Wembley", both winger Jadon Sancho and defender captain Harry Maguire, who are subject to a lot of criticism this season, to join the long list of injuries.

"I don't think it makes sense now to keep talking and speculating about the Champions League," Rangnick said during the press conference. "We have to be realistic."

"Even if we win the remaining four matches, things are not in our hands. But what is in our hands is the style we play and the level of performance. Even it is important for next season to finish the current one in the best possible way."

The German, who will remain at Old Trafford to play an advisory role after the arrival of Dutchman Eric Ten Hag from Ajax Amsterdam from next season, confirmed that United will attract names in the transfer market even if they do not qualify for the main continental competition.

He believed that "the renewal of Bruno's contract (Fernandes Portuguese) showed that this is still possible. This is an attractive club and there is a new coach," adding, "With a new approach, with a new coach and the way he wants to play, this club is still very interesting." .

The absence of French Paul Pogba, Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani, left back Luke Shaw and Brazilian midfielder Fred continues.
