The arrangement of the phrases is as follows: (B) I was not, (C) consulted about, (D) Who should, (A) be appointed, (E) as the manager.

- The sentence starts with "I was not" (B), which sets the subject ("I") and introduces a negative statement.

- Then, "consulted about" (C) follows, which explains the action or situation that concerns the subject ("I"). In this case, it indicates that the speaker was not consulted about something.

- "Who should" (D) comes next, which introduces the question of who should perform a particular role or task. It sets up the context for what the speaker was not consulted about.

- "be appointed" (A) is used to complete the phrase, indicating the specific action or decision the speaker was not consulted about, which is the appointment of someone for a certain role.

- Finally, "as the manager" (E) specifies the role or position for which the appointment was being discussed. It provides additional context and clarifies the appointment in question.

So, the arrangement (B) - (C) - (D) - (A) - (E) forms a coherent and meaningful sentence, expressing that the speaker was not consulted about who should be appointed as the manager.
