Manchester United boss Ralf Rangnick has paid a glowing tribute to Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel.

Rangnick has heaped praise on Tuchel, who he used to manage as a player at SSV Ulm.

"To do what Thomas [Tuchel] did in four months at Chelsea was incredible," he said.

"If anyone had told Marina [Granovskaia] or Roman [Abramovich] what would happen or they had looked into a crystal ball to see what would happen in the next four months, incredible.

"To win the Champions League, finish fourth in the league, and now be towards the top of the league with almost the same players, is a big achievement.

"I am not sure I can say that things will develop in the same way for me at Manchester United."
