I really dont think its McKenna because our academy rebuilding has just started and he is a vital part of that. Anyway who said it was from within?If it is McKenna what are everyone's thoughts? I haven't watched any of our under 18s this season, I know they won their league and that's as much as I know lol. What kind of style did he have them playing?
Just not fond of these «famous» social media fans. Goldbridge et al.
They are just normal fans, but their views are almost taken as gospel by many.
Anyways the link. Imagine paying £5 to hear Stephen Howson speak.

Any chance it could be Zeljko Buvac (Klopp's former assistant)? Would be a killer combo

Saw someone who claims to Patreon member say it is from within. So if that's true and it is exciting then the only options would really be McKenna or Nicky Butt.
Fergie's telling him to f... off.Tbf Howson will have some contacts and know some stuff. However, he does indeed seem a bit of a twat.
Would fully support this.
My main concern with this is whether Rui Faria is getting forced out by the club, in an attempt to make Jose play better football and maybe use Carrick as a succession tool. Liverpool did this with Rodgers when he had to let go of Pascoe and Marsh and he didn't last too long after that happened.
If this is the case and this is going against Jose's wishes then the theme of Jose's third season of discontent will continue and it doesn't bode well for the club even before we've hit the summer.
However if Rui Faria wants to go out and prove himself in management or Jose thinks he can do get someone better in, then brilliant news. If these initial murmurs are true then I hope Carrick is getting into the coaching setup for legit reasons and not because he's there to appease fans, report to the board etc. I think I remember rumours of Giggs being somewhat forced upon LVG when he joined and that LVG did want Kluivert but I'm not sure if they're true or not.

Arsene Wenger is looking for a new job...
Edit: I see a few others have made the same comment lol
What’s his username?
Fergie's support staff was brilliant.
I love how all the fans knew Albert Morgan and he would just sit behind the boss.
I have no idea who LVGs #2 was.. and I have no idea who are coaches are at the moment.. Just know about Faria.
That's great news!
Nothing against Faria, don't actually know what his role was, and how significant he is to Jose.
Don't actually care with who he replaces him.
It's a new dawn, it's a new day....and all that.
A new face with new ideas, difrerent approach, who knows.
Just hope we're all in for a more joyfull period then the last five years.

Van Gaal’s assistant was a fairly unknown ex player to be fair.
Change of style on the cards? Not sure how much control Rui Faria had over that aspect.
Well.. other than Giggs. He had his backroom staff that came in with him. Giggs was someone he had to work with.
Who is actually Ryan Giggs' assistant for Wales now.
Albert Stuivenberg - now Giggsy's assistant for Wales. I think LVG had 2 or 3 assistants but he's the one I remembered.
With the history Faria and Mourinho have, I'm confident it wasn't done against Mourinho's wishes - Mourinho would have sooner walked. I think it is as you say in the latter bit of the post - he's found a club to cut his teeth at management.
My biggest complaint about any player is when they sulk after losing the ball or put their hands up or hands in their face while the opposition counters. How fecking hard is it to recover and play on? Most of our players do this. There is one that does not, at least not enough that it’s noticeable.
I agree. Jose would not go for that and we’re hardly being run by an Abromovich type of owner.
I messaged that guy, he said it was McKenna.
Statman Dave?
Could be a good thing for the team. Freshen things up a bit and hopefully evolve the way we play.
I love this gif. Sir Alex with that ‘feck off’ at the end always makes me smile.
I personally think Sir Alex changing his assistants every 4-5 years or so helped build his legacy and we'll see whether Jose is good enough to work with different minds and still be successful, or whether he's a Cloughie and that he needs a Peter Taylor on his right shoulder at all times to reach those heights.
That could be interesting if that guy and Howson aren't full of shit.
He plays some great football and it'll be a perfect transition to the first team for Gomes, Chong, O'Connor etc with him there as assistant.
So he’s let out that there’s a rumour and that he’s got inside info. Then he’s charging people to hear this info?
Hasn’t he got a track record of being found to be ripping other fans off? Or am I thinking of somebody else?
If there was truth to this, I’m really surprised there’s nothing in the papers yet.

Not sure if the person was him, but I think the ripping off story was something about somebody charging foreign fans for 'club tours'.
Sorry who did you message? And what website is this?
If it is McKenna, he must be absolutely thrilled. Imagine being a boyhood United fan and getting this opportunity!
Rui and Buvac in a joint manager role at Arsenal would be fantastic.
He's done well with the U18's, nice choice.
I bet it's Mourinho's son 
Faria leaving i think could be a good thing, Ferguson went through many assistants taking stuff from them all no doubt to varying degrees. Mourinho has had Faria as his no2 for a long time, hopefully a new voice will be good for him.
So who'll manage the u18s? McKenna has done a great job with them, hopefully the next manager we choose is of the same mould as McKenna.
Someone should break it to him that the manager largely determines the style of play and an assistant is...well, an assistant. Faria may offer key tactical, fitness and personnel advice but it will be Jose calling the big shots.
Nothing will change with a new assistant manager. Suck it up.
