Gary Neville made some strong claims after watching Manchester United's game against Chelsea on Sunday.

According to Neville, he pointed out that he believes the influence of Ragnick can already be seen even before the German has officially joined the Res Devils.

The Ragnick effect

The German-made his way to Old Trafford after the sack of Norwegian manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. He would be taking the job on an interim basis.

Nonetheless, if the executives at Manchester United are pleased with his performances, then he may just be getting the job on a longer timeframe.

Neville's statement

For the time being, Ex-Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick is overseeing the team before the official arrival of the new manager.

However, Neville still insisted that based on the style of play Manchester United adopted against Chelsea, it is almost obvious that Ralf Ragnick was the man who picked the team.

Although not being part of the Sky Sports match coverage, in did not stop Neville from moving to his social media handle to share his opinion on what was going on in the game.

Neville's point

The point Gary Neville was trying to make is a simple one. During the time Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Carrick partnered, this style of play was never adopted by the players of Manchester United.

However, just at the eve of the arrival of Ralf Ragnick, they begin to adopt a pressing style while trying to win the ball up the opposition territory.

To further make things interesting, Ronaldo was out of the starting eleven. Neville's opinion was that Ronaldo must have started the game if they played solely on Carrick's ideas.

Summary

Whether the ideas of Gary Neville was through or not, one thing is through.

Manchester United adopted a different approach against Chelsea. An approach which can be linked with only one man. Ralf Ragnick.
