Ipswich seem a well run club these days so I doubt that. Expectations for Ipswich staying up next season are low. Like Luton this season.Well keeping a team in the PL is the real test to see if you can manage at this level. A small team like Brentford have become PL regulars and not even in the conversation as relegation candidates, Frank needs respect for that
Chances on Ipswich going down next season will be very high

No one's demeaning him, it started with someone belittling McKenna if you actually take 10 seconds to read the thread.Holy feck people demeaning Frank while bigging up McKenna at the same time
He's done a fanstastic job at Brentford just as McKenna has at Ipswich so far. Next season will be a huge test for McKenna. Big difference between PL and Championship
I was trying to be slightly more polite.

Very few available managers have managed a team comparable to the size of United. Tuchel is about the only one. Liverpool got Slot, Arsenal got Arteta, Spurs got Ange. It's often the way it goes.Great, throw a manager used to doing a decent job at a small club into the mixer which is Manchester United.
Try to keep in mind while watching this clip, if you can, that we won the game 3-1.

No need, he’s a prick. Although I’m not completely against the idea of him becoming manager.
Are there any guarantees apart from Pep? That's football.And we got Ten Hag, how did that go?
Manager is frustrated that his team lost a game they didn't deserve to lose shocker. People getting disproportionately bent out of shape about that was bad enough at the time, but holding a grudge for two years? Seriously
I like him, he's done an amazing job with Brentford and as soon as he leaves they'll sink like a stone. United is a completely different kettle of fish though. There's such a lack of quality managerial options out there. I'm not enthusiastic about any of them.
Are there any guarantees apart from Pep + unlimited funds? That's football.

But he’s well versed in data analytics!He plays shit on a stick football and if he was a bland Englishman nobody would be entertaining this. Might as well go for Southgate or Potter honestly.

Fair, although it sort of proves my point further.Fixed that for you
The coaches we’re getting heavily linked with are England/Premier League based. It concerns me that we don’t appear to be looking more afar. You’d also hope this isn’t the case when it comes to signing players.Frank is outside the box, no ?
Tuchel, Flick, Enrique less so.
I’m yet to see any of our most reliable sources say we’re after Southgate or Frank, Potter’s a fantastic manager, I get why the Chelsea spell might have put people off but whoever gets him is getting a really good manager.
Come on now, yes United have click bait pieces but we’ve all done this dance before. We know nothing is secret, we know United test the waters when it comes to bringing in managers/players. We see this stuff get leaked. We saw it with Ten Hag and Poch, we saw it with Arnautovic. If Ten Hag is sacked it will with absolute certainty be one of these names we are getting linked with who replaces him. There won’t be some surprise candidate popping up.Says a lot about Ineos? Why… because Mike McGrath has gone 2+2=5 and written an “Exclusive!”? His diligence for this article seems to be Frank has some past with Brailsford.
All three of them are just people taking a manager and creating a reason why he could be the next United manager … “oooh, Southgate hasn’t signed a new England contract, Ratcliffe is lining him up for United!”. We’re always used for clicks, it’s an easy win for journalists.
Why would McGrath know what Ratcliffe/the rest are thinking? Why wouldn’t Ornstein (or even Whitwell) have said something? Because they don’t do clickbait pieces.
And for thinking outside the box, “these lot” got Berrada. How many people knew Berrada was coming or even thought it possible? No one.
Could Frank be an option, yeah I’m sure but I don’t think McGrath knows jack.
Imagine if he comes here and becomes the first English manager ever to win the PL.
Brexit means Brexit.Imagine if he comes here and becomes the first English manager ever to win the PL.
I mean that's not why he's being touted is it - because they got a club promoted and kept them up for a few years - ...This is where it's at.
Imagine Curbishley at Charlton, Tony Pulis at Stoke, Allardyce at Bolton or Dyche at Burnley being linked with the Utd job just because they got a club promoted and kept them up for a few years.
Laughable to even consider it.
Caf will call him fraud and deluded the minute he does that here.
PS. Sorry for deleting the media link

Frank/Potter are touted because of their philosophies and styles in regards to football aswell as their record at previous clubs.
Neither has done anything more than those guys I mentioned. It's the same flawed logic that saw David Moyes get the gig.
Frank is a long ball/crossing merchant who relies on set pieces, knock downs and second balls. He'd be ideal for Liverpool.
Potter is has his teams try to pass the opposition to death but still can't find a way to put the ball in the goal.

Ah, England. Country from Plymouth on west to Copenhagen on east.Imagine if he comes here and becomes the first English manager ever to win the PL.
