Kieran McKenna: Man Utd’s Ideal Man To Replace Erik Ten Hag?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июн 2024
- After gaining promotion to the Premier League, Kieran McKenna’s Ipswich Town have become the first team in more than a decade to gain back to back promotions from League One to reach the Premier League. In fact, since his appointment, McKenna has picked up more points than any other manager in England’s top 4 divisions. So how has the former Manchester United coach turned the Tractor Boys into one of the best teams in England?

Will Kieran McKenna keep Ipswich Town in the Premier League next season? 🤔
Depends on summer recruitment! Hopefully United will loan them a few youngsters, and maybe an Amad!
NO!
Definitely. I think the quality of the Prem is overstated and the teams up to including Man Utd as it currently stands are all beatable. So that's 13 teams to take 4 points from each giving us 52 points minimum.
Only if they get recruitment right. Plus translate their pressing principles to the epl
@@JTBCPFC😂
Just got back from my annual 2 week trip to the future. McKenna actually got the United job in the summer of 2024 and immediately initiated an aggressive forward press at the start of the new season. It worked for 30 minutes then all the players said fuck that its too hard. Never saw it again.
Proof that @yewbzee is in fact, a time traveller!!
@@calsingfield3450 😂
😂😂
😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
This is painfully accurate 😂
I'm an Ipswich season ticket holder and this analysis is spot on. Most detailed I've seen. One thing missing if I am being pedantic is the impact of subs (regular use of 3 subs at a time) and amount of late goals. Subs particularly in the no.10 position have been crucial (for much of first half of the season Omari was a super sub, and then second half of the season, Sarmiento adopted the role).
Your fighting spirit is incredible - 32 points gained from losing positions in the Championship is something else
The subs have been awesome. Also McKenna's awareness of the opposition's tactics is amazing and he acts so quickly to make tactical changes and regain control of the game. When the fans see something on the pitch that needs dealing with McKenna is already sorting it out. We trust that man without question.
@@johnsmith-es7zk100 per cent. Loved Chaplin going down after 20-30 mins in so many games to give Mckenna a chance to make tactical tweaks and relay to team.
It's funny how he is good for United and bad for others 😅😅😅😅
That was a brilliant breakdown of Ipswich. I'm a season ticket holder and you nailed it. Great job.
Agreed , nice to hear an accurate verdict of how we play , rather than the lazy , their lucky 😴
So refreshing to hear someone from outside the club ‘get’ our style of play; this is the first time I’ve seen it. Also loved that you recognise that we do have a lot of quality players that can make the step up, main thing is improving on what’s already there and getting depth. Hoping KMc’s tricky blues can spring a few upsets!
"SOMETIMES MAYBE SH-"
I can't be the only one who heard that lol 😅
I thought I was tripping 😂
Watched every minute of every game this season, one of the best breakdown’s I’ve seen. Hirst and Moore are generally central and actually very rarely drift out to the left side.
Chaplin’s goal against Hull demonstrates that left hand side diamond perfectly with Luongo dropping in, combining with Harness and Davis.
You're right about Moore but Hirst definitely drifts into wide areas more frequently for knock-ons/wide runs - an example that springs to mind is the 3rd goal against Hull (H) as well as his assist for Aluko's goal against Bristol rovers in the cup
Great analysis. The Ipswich attack is incredible, proven by two seasons of being a top scoring side, even beating Leicester, Leeds, and Southampton tally who are recent prem teams. The only nervousness when entering the premier league is the shaky defence. Although good by championship standards, because Ipswich score so many goals, in the step up they will need a premier defence, at the moment they will be punished severely by top 6 teams, but McKenna is no fluke, so every faith he will sharpen all corners
The only thing that I can contribute here is that the same was said about Vincent Kompany's Burnley a year ago... They were nailing it in the Championship, beating everyone handsomely, playing possession based football, sexy football etc... and when they came to the Prem League, they were the whipping boys... milking cows. The jump from the Championship to the PL is extremely high... too high for tiny clubs like Ipswich to survive...
Utterly absurd comment. Ipswich has a tremendous and illustrious history and is not a tiny club. It is the only club to have had a manager that went on to win England the World Cup - did you know that ? It also made the reputation of the late great Sir Bobby Robson.
Tiny club?
@@paddycable1723you have a great history. So do Burnley. I would love ipswich to stay up. But they are a tiny club in what matters now. Funding and size of crowd.
They are way better than Burnley
People really underestimate that step up from the Championship to the premier league. It usually exposes the fake from the real, we will see if Ipswich are the real deal soon enough.
Why are so many people talking about managerial replacements post Fergie era when back then, and NO ONE talked about Sir Alex himself had placed lower than 10th in his first 4 years at Man Utd THREE times? Believe in the Process of Ten Hag.
There's two things you're forgetting when bringing up Fergie in the early days. The Club and the Fanbase back then.
The club was not the European juggernaut they were now and they were a far cry from the dazzling football they were once known for under Sir Matt Busby. Senior management at clubs were also alot more lenient with managers and gave them more time. Fergie even admits that FA cup win on his 2nd season literally saved him from being fired. Since then, the club has been transformed into a club obsessed with success.
The fanbase has also changed alot. They didn't have the world wide appeal they have now. I became a United supporter as a kid because they were the best team in England. The fanbase has become so used to continually success. Trophies is the minimum requirement for us. Big name transfers is a minimum requirement for us. Good football is a minimum requirement for us. The fanbase is a huge part of the club's financially success. This also means that the club stakeholders listen more attentively to the voice of the fanbase especially because it will affect them financially.
So there's a lot more factors at play than just "Fergie also sucked in the beginning." We're a club addicted to success - instant success at that. Managers the world over have been given far less rope not just United. Just look at Chelsea.
I agree that we shouldn't be in a hurry to drop managers just because of a bad season. But there's alot more at play than just being loyal to a coach because we have Fergie more time.
Yeah bro, this so called fans need to support other team if they want instant success, how many manager we need to sack 🤦🏻♂️ just stick with ten hag man, let him rebuild the team
@@freaktown4485rebuild it into what? what is his style what's he been trying to implement this season?
we brought him in because his football style was good. he then publicly said he will never play the way he played at Ajax.
Atleast when we lost our first 2 games under him we knew what he was trying to implement but now we have nothing.
He has no charisma and can barely speak english yet doesn't have a translator like Bielsa.
He has 0 talent ID and benched a fit varane against City for tactical reasons. He didn't play Amad all season for Antony and even Garnacho when Amad is our best and most talented right winger.
He has 0 man management and has fallen out with many of the people he brought in like Antony as well as our best players like varane, sancho & Amad.
He's broken many negative records and hold our worst ever prem points tally.
He is a garbage manager and excels at nothing.
Worst ever points tally goes to Ole @ 58
Get your facts right
@@zm4261
@@zm4261 He also had 0 LB the whole season, majority of starting players injured the whole season, CBs always on injury list and at one point 0 CB so Casemiro who just came back from injury has to start with unfit Johnny fucking Evans. What do you expect him to do? It's almost as if you haven't watched every single match this season unlike us who watched and know what are the actual problems are with this team.
I'm a Ipswich fan and you've got this spot on, great vid
This is spot on. The most consise and informative break down I've seen. Followed!
Now i get it. Mckenna was the man behind those long balls from the centre backs.
The united team just cannot seem to press, the only thing missing
@@emopunkyyy that itself is quite a lot.
i was in the same classroom in a tiny place called vilage called glassdrumond, aparatly me and him were good mates and the otnly 2 that played football at break time. my mum was a teacher there so i went for a year thenleft to go to the school a minutes walk away and he moved to fermanagh. my mum caught a glimpse of him when it was him and ole and said "holy shit thats liam mckenna from glassdrummond school, you him were good mstes. when i say small i mean reception to primary 3 all in the same roomk, i sat behind him and were constantly messing about. im a signed music producer and hes one of the best coaches in the world
Great video , I’m blessed to have witnessed McKenna ball since he become manager of Ipswich , it’s brilliant to watch , high energy excitement, I am very confident he will surprise a few next season , I completely agree with your views on where the team needs back up/improvement.
great tactical analysis Dave - as an itfc season ticket holder these past two seasons have been phenomenal after the dross of the previous 10 plus years - totally agree with your points about how the team needs to be further strengthened and developed
Brilliant video. Gives me hope for next season in the Premiership 👏
Its been 22 years since Ipswich was in the Premier League (all my life til this point in time)
This is more or less spot on although as others have said, Broadhead is also important. He usually plays in the left, can hold the ball, has good feet and scores. Glad to see you give Burns the credit he deserves. The other issue is the use of subs. There is little difference in the quality of subs and those they replace so there are always fresh legs in the second half. Finally there is the X factor- team spirit, cohesion and belief. They often recover from losing positions and score late. Happens regularly so it’s no fluke
That Amad shout is well informed
Interesting analysis. McKenna has many tricks and is still learning.
Awesome analysis, cant wait to get into my seat for our Premiership ride. Love that "will work in the premier league" I really believe we are going to shock the premiership snobs! - Oh and I need to add "Davis for England"
Spot on, very well done
McKenna can be a future United manager but not right now. I want United to continue with ETH at least for another season, and likewise, want McKenna to get EPL experience before taking the big job
Great analysis bro
How did you and Howson kmow?
Im excited if it's McKenna or De Zerbi
Cheers for this as a Chelsea fan, McKenna looking like a De Zerbi student
A good analysis of the team’s tactics. Yes Ipswich can stay up in the PR next season. Like you said the key to their success is keeping their loan players , and adding a few to bolster the defence and Sam morsey’s role .
So statman Dave is the reason for these McKenna to Manchester united rumors 😤
The PL is a different animal , it's going to be extremly difficult to survive . I think we are going to need at least 6 or 7 quality signings and the coach has got to fashion the new players quickly . I would expect us to finish anywhere in the bottom six tbh, having said that 17th would do for me in the next season .
Hiya Dave could you do an anaylis on Thomas Tuchel to Utd what is tactics and transfer targets would be.
Brilliant video this
Great analysis. Excited to see McKenna’s tactics in the Premier League. Maybe if EtH doesn’t work out we can have him in 2026.
Loved that analysis of ITFC
Can you please make a video for possible transfers for Ipswich Town ?
I got a photo with you after the game. You called Martial lazy ahahha
Dont make history repeat itself man, the player were against him during his coaching time at man utd, sacking manager is not the solution, the clearance of the player is this club needed.. im tired with this reactionary fanbase man
great vid love mckenna, ive been saying the same thing. he would do great at United.
Worst idea...Man utd gonna get relegated next season with trashy,fridge and McHollowman
That number of points as stats is not comparable. Championship sides will always play more games
If Ipswich do well in the Prem under McKenna, you KNOW he us gonna be linked with the United job in a few years when the job is up for grabs again 😂
Pain as a Wycombe fan selling Al-Hamadi to Wimbledon 😢
From a PR season ticket holder. This analysis is spot on.
Does he use a double pivot,if so would Mount work in that double pivot?
Hi Dave can you do a video on potential managers to replace Roberto De Zerbi at Brighton next season and they tactics?
No more direct attack managers. Need a possession based style.
Hope Ipswich Town do well this coming season
Great analysis. I think you may have one thing wrong. Hutchinson played on the right, not the left
Great breakdown of McKenna's tactics!
Do you think he'll ever reach the level of a top 4 manager?
BTW Was that Gattuso audio on purpose? 😂
The Gattuso audio just clicked when listening again!
Nope that slipped through post production checks 😅
Of course he'll reach that level and exceed it.
I really think Ipswich should look at Kevin Stoger. He would fit the system really well.
Hi Dave can you do something on Julien Lopetegui as new West Ham manager is tactics and potential signings
Ineos subscribes to Dave confirmed
*SHHHHH! don't give away the SECRET FORMULA*
Very interesting
The jump from ipswich to united is firghteningly scary I can see it going down hill fast I would have given eth another season
I hope he is good enough to be one of the best managers
Morsy won’t miss games through fatigue or injury but suspension 😂
I could see some of Manchester United’s academy players being loaned to Ipswich. Maybe Harry Amass?
Remember when we were told it was just vibes under Ole (we could sure do with vibes now)?
Nathan Broadhead? He was not mentioned even though he was joint top scorer. Also effective subs were key.
I am Swedish Ipswich fan. Nathan surely one of my favs. Super sub! 👍👍
Bold shout comparing Toni Kroos to Mass Luongo 🦘
As usual, Mckenna is the shiny new toy for the British media.
Rodgers
Kompany
Bielsa
They will soo be humbled
There’s those words again. Attacking press, exactly what Man Utd haven’t or in some cases have refused to play. Odds that he’ll see out the normal 2 years? Doubtful
You missed the importance of Hladky being good with his feet. Also the impact of multiple like for like substitutions around the 60 minute mark who provide extra energy. We scored a lot of late goals.
.... sounds like he's missed the basics then.
Getting him in will be the worst decision possible. From a champions league semi finalist to league 1 manager 😂
That prediction for next season is going to age like milk just like the Burnley shout did this season lol only reason he rates him so highly is his former ties to Utd I bet lol
If he does well next season I would love for him to take over Man United after. Apparently he is a United fan ;)
give him 2 seasons at least to prove himself
Utd fans already vilified him, blaming him as one of the reasons why they were crap a 2 1/2 years ago. You don't deserve him
@@JP.708 never blamed him or Carrick. I actually wanted Carrick to stay till the end of 21-22 season instead of taking Rangnick as interim manager
When kmk joined ipswich we had like hundreds slagging him off from Utd
I think he will be with us for a few seasons his love was to play in the premiership.
@@JP.708you're right. We don't deserve him. He's nowhere near qualified enough for a huge global club like Manchester United
If he keeps them in the premier league for next season he will be good
I don't think it will be a good idea to change ETH. He developed a team with his playing mentality. If another manager comes, he has to change the whole team structure again. Again, it will take one season to accustom a team with a new manager playing styles. So, ETH should give another season and give ETH 4/5 signing to see how he manage the team. It takes time for players to get accustomed to his system because some of his signings are bad and there are lots of injury issues. Under ETH many young players outshine in OT like Mainoo, Garnacho, Hojlund, and now Amad. He gives sustainability in the squad which is hard to see in other previous managers after Sir Alex.
Ipswich fan here and the change in our club with change of ownership and McKenna as head coach has been remarkable.
We have quite a few loan players and players coming to the end of their contracts.
We obviously need to invest in additions to the playing squad but it’s the balance of not doing a Nottingham Forrest and instead adding players who buy into our way and the dressing room.
Dipshits town are going down
Just saying... Could see Rasmus Hojlund nailing that target man build up role 👀
I think he is overrated but obviously a good head coach. When I say overrated because the media and guys like you, Englishman always hip up and they facilitate their downfall.
Overload a word not used by us oldies! 😂
Man United have really struggled in front of goal. With a poor defence and injuries, their goal difference has been close to zero and lately -1.Their goal output has been the worst
of all top 10 EPL teams, injuries or no injuries. These are the tactics that will surely fix Man United!
How long will it take you people to understand tactics are not the problem..
How is most of what this genius doing different from what EtH does currently at ManUtd?
Great 👍
McKenna is a bad idea for UTD. At best its a side step, but risks further giving in to player power.
Worst case is it's too soon for him. We can analyze his tactics and coaching throughout the past 2 seasons but even Kompany was hailed as a brilliant manager until he reached the EPL.
And then there is the example of a certain Vincent Kompany who believed that the tactics that saw him stroll to promotion from the Championship would see him blow away the PL. After all, opposition is just opposition. PL, Championship, L1, L2, it's all the same. It's just football.
they will not hang on to this boss hes going to the top
I would love to pick up Davis at Utd. He’s old enough that he won’t block Amas’ development, but he’ll also be ridiculously cheap.
I think you are deluding yourself, if you think he will be cheap, let alone ridiculously so.
Feel like David Moyes II. He was in Utd but was not considered. Too inexperienced to gain respect.
Reminder: we played more eyes-pleasing football under Ole than Ten Hag ever was. Now we know that both McKenna and Carrick arent as inept as the likes of Man United supporters made them to be. I think the main reason why we had such huge drop of performance in 21/22 was due to lack of quality reinforcement, can you imagine playing the same ol' McFred for 3 seasons straight? Yet it was what happened at that time.
McKenna is a good coach but u need more than that to manage united.. And he's untested as a big team manager and united is a big team with big players with big egos.. I don't think united should change the manager but if they do McKenna shouldn't be the replacement..
Oh look another potential man utd manager who plays 4-2-3-1
We are staying up
Sounds wayy to tactically complex for the Manchester united players that have thrown the last 5 managers under the bus. Funny were all talking about hiring the same bloke that our players leaked had 'playground tactics'. What's really Manchester Uniteds issues, the manager... Or the players?
Mourinho did the same with Lukaku and Zlatan...Nothing new. Benzema at madrid did too. This seems old
Ye maybe we should bring ole back too
Disappointed to see Statman also throwing Ten Hag out like an ole takeaway.
We want tenhag to stay, we are fed up of these stories of changing managers at Manchester united
Manchester United CANNOT bring in any up-and-coming managers or players until everything behind the scenes is sorted. The club destroys careers. McKenna would never manage again after being at United.
So many similarities with Ole's man united...yeah I know
The title of this video is very misleading
I do wish people would stop talking trash. Just look at Potter, same said about him, goes to a big club, flops miserably, while Brighton thrive without him anyway. Sometimes you just get the right players, right mentalities and right circumstances it DOESNT mean you can handle a top 4 club. United aren't going to hire a manager with Championship Credentials, no ability with top players, no experience in Europe, nothing. That's just fools talk, the agents will be bumping his stock with rumors because they get paid if he moves to a big deal, that's all this noise is, happens all the time, Chelsea certainly wont be chasing him after what happened with Potter.
Ita all good o papper but can united players deliver that style of play or just gonna be selfish
All I care about is, can Marcelo Bielsa talk about Ipswich please
i want kieran mckenna to replace erik ten haag in the summer. most players already know him and hes done sucha great job he deserves a chance
Nope, not the caliber of manager we need for the rebuild am afraid. Especially if these same players who were there during his previous tenure are still there.
If they undermined him before what's to stop them doing it to him again.
People shud calm down about mckenna cause he still needs time 😂😂
He was part of the creators of McFred... that was a tragedy
Great, now everyone knows !! 😂
