Arsenal title winner Paul Merson says Manchester United need to sack caretaker manager Ralf Rangnick.

Merson was reacting to United's 1-1 draw with Southampton.

Speaking on Sky Sports, Merson said: "One-hundred per cent [Rangnick won't be in charge of Man Utd next season]. I've got as much chance of being in charge. I just don't see it.

"I read something that said they have improved. I don't see that. I don't see the happiness there. I hear so much coming out of Man Utd, at the moment, which is just extraordinary. It never happened before and that's my worry.

"I don't see him being there and the way it is going at the moment, if they don't get in the top four, I'd be shocked if he went upstairs. I know that was part of the deal, but I don't think it's a good thing. I think this needs to be nipped in the bud sooner rather than later at Manchester United."

Merson continued: "I just can't believe what they are doing. Just waiting until next season to bring in a new manager, there is a lot of work to be done. This is not just bringing a new manager in and let's go again next season. They are a million miles off and things have to change very quickly.

"I'd have had someone in as soon as possible. You pay £70m to £80m for football players and some of them don't even play. Why wouldn't you break the bank for managers, if you need to get a manager out of a club. In my opinion, they are very important."
