Fourteen goals in 11 matches tells a tale of Ralf Rangnick as Manchester United interim manager. His team may now start games quicker but a win, loss and draw from their past three games is poor. Southampton, with draws home and away against Manchester City, should present a challenge and as they also shut out the champions in the meeting at the Etihad Stadium United could again struggle to score, against Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side.
