    Just reported he's said no to the opportunity to be their assistant manager. Big call that but fair play.

    New York is absolutely baltic right now!

    I bet it’s because it’s only a 6 month gig. Probably different if Ralf had a longer contract at Man Utd

    I love Manchester but I imagine a snow-filled, baltic New York is still a bigger draw than rainy, rainy Manchester :D

    Exactly that I think. Did enough this season to secure another full season in the MLS so why give all that up for a short term gig?

    Man U will have to move onto their next target now - I hear there's a guy called Schopp available :)

    Scarred for life. He'll never work at a red and white club again, poor fellow.

    In fairness they could do a lot worse than Stendel.

    Because it’s Man Utd, and a successful 6 months would do more for his cv than 12 months of an ok season in MLS.

    If he was taking the manager's job, maybe. As assistant he isn't likely to get the manager's job when Ragnick goes, so he'll be back looking for work. I imagine his idea is to go NY Red Bulls, RB Salzburg, RB Leipzig, top champions league team. Moving back to assistant manager, even under Ragnick at Man Utd is probably a backwards step.

    Well, if they were aiming for Struber, I'm not so sure.

    Not sure on that one. How do you deem it successful if you're only there for half a season? Whatever they achieve this season it will be in line with original expectations. Doing well with NYRB could move you to a different part of the Red Bull setup quicker.

    I’m fairly certain the RB Leipzig job is available

    They're currently beating Manchester City 1-0.

    Ralf signed Stendel as a player
