I think he could be excellent playing with Bruno and a Fred. Let Fred break up play and allow DvB and Bruno to be more creative.
It should be 433 ,if you have 3 forwards who don't work back you don't need 4-2-1-3 .Bruno has been caught too far forward all season and he is easy to mark when he plays in 'the hole' .

But I wonder if that’s because Bruno was told to play upfront as a 4? Who knows 😂

Yeah something definitely changed because Bruno was much higher up the pitch and doing less defensive work than previously. He's a number 8 in reality but tends to play as a 10 for us.

Maybe ,and likewise with dvb the other night ,but that’s why ole was failing,it’s ok to get tactics and selection wrong if you learn from them ,he was repeating the same

2 reasons I think

He wouldn't leave Lokomotiv for a 6 month role

We could do with a football person in the higher echelons of the club

Moving into a Sporting Director type role? Working with the club to set-up a proper structure to move the club forward, scouting players, setting up the youth team etc.

Similar to what City did prior to Pep coming. Brought in a load of the Barca set-up to set-up the club properly.

I suspect its more similar to what he did while working with Red Bull.

At Red Bull, Rangnick helped oversee their expansion into European football, emphasizing the recruitment of unproven players and developing youth systems with a worldwide scouting base, alongside an attacking on-pitch philosophy across their clubs.[7][8] As a result, Red Bull clubs rose in market value from €120 million to €1.2 billion during his tenure, with its largest club, RB Leipzig, peaking in value to €270 million in 2019.[9] Their clubs have also seen sustained domestic success,[10][11] and generated sizable profits with player transfers,[12][13] which led to his promotion to head of sport and development in 2019.[14] He resigned from Red Bull in 2020.[15][16][17]

Woodward school of decision making:

Liverpool doing well - have a German manager
Chelsea doing well - have a German manager
United not doing well - which German managers can I buy?
