I think EADT are choosing to retain a good relationship with ITFC and Ashton, rather than repeating the stories we’ve seen in all national papers. They’ve had a lot of good exclusive interviews recently |  | | |

Probably helps that Andy Warren is in house now too. |  |

The hypotheticals are interesting thoughts.
- Are all three clubs mentioned seriously interested in McKenna or are some being used to flush out interest from others?
Brighton is serious. Think the others are more of a passing glance.
- Will the result of tomorrow's FA Cup Final have any bearing on Erik ten Hag's future? If United do change boss, would they be bold enough to go with McKenna over more experienced options like Pochettino and Tuchel?
As above, I think Manchester United will go with Pochettino or Tuchel.
- How long will Brighton and Chelsea wait around for an answer if McKenna's waiting on Manchester United?
Depends how much Brighton want him, and who else they have lined up.
- Is Maresca really Chelsea's main target, or has that information been put out to force a decision from McKenna?
I wonder whether they might go for Xavi now he’s available?
- Is there any way that when the music stops the only/most appealing chair left for McKenna is Ipswich? If so, how will he/the club address the previous speculation?
They’ll probably try and act as if none of this ever happened. | |

Surprised no-one's interviewed any of the players yet to see what they think about all this. Unless they've been instructed not to comment. |  |
| Trust the process. Trust Phil. |

A great article and helpful to see the timeline laid out like that.
“Is Maresca really Chelsea's main target, or has that information been put out to force a decision from McKenna?”
That makes it sound like Chelsea have officially offered McKenna the job? Maresca suddenly being their main target does appear a little odd, and I can’t imagine many would choose him over McKenna given the opportunity. | | | |

It is in the article!!
“I've seen some of the conspiracy theories. One is that we are keeping quiet because of some sort of cozy relationship with the club. That's simply not the case. I don't really understand how that would benefit either party“ |  | | |

It is, but to be fair, it clearly would benefit both parties.
The club dont want speculation.
The EADT get excellent access on the back of co-operating.
I'm not saying the 'conspiracy' is true, but there is clearly mutual benefit in having a good relationship. | |

Remember that Thomas Frank is also apparently on both short lists so all this could equally apply to him. | | | |

Read he has a good relationship with Cole Palmer having coached him an Man City. He's the star boy there. | | | |

Maresca has the Pep connection and it appears the football world has gone Pep connection crazy - see Kompany and Bayern Munich.
It's as if Pep is now viewed as some manager God and clubs want anyone who has worked with him irrelevant of capabilities |  | | |
| You can add Arteta to the Pep connection. on 17:45 - May 24 with 1784 views | Marshalls_Mullet |

Are any of the other clubs forums gone into meltdown over their managers being touted ie Brentford and Leicester ? | | | |

To be fair, a lot of Leicester fans seemingly wanted Enzo sacked anyway. |  | | |
