'McKenna's name will be bandied about this summer for other jobs'
Former Premier League striker Glenn Murray is unsure whether Kieran McKenna will remain at Ipswich Town next season as he is likely to be on the radar of other clubs this on Ipswich's fight to stay in the top-flight this season and what could lie ahead for them next season, Murray told BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast: "I think McKenna's name will be bandied about this summer for other jobs."Even though he does have a specific style of play, I do feel like he he has tried to adapt it in the Premier League compared to how he set them up in League One and the Championship. "When you zoom out from this season, he has done an absolutely unbelievable job at Ipswich. So regardless of whether he is their manager or not next season, I think he will always be remembered fondly. "Of the three promoted teams, Ipswich made the best go of it. They did some good business in the transfer window and Liam Delap was a great signing."They might struggle to keep hold of him, but if they can the nucleus of that squad together then they will be right up at the top of the Championship table next season. "Whether McKenna will be in charge, I don't know."Listen on BBC Sounds

A sign from Alexander-Arnold or just showing his love for the club?
It was Trent Alexander-Arnold's goal celebration, rather than the manner of Liverpool's one-goal victory over Championship-bound Leicester, that hit the headlines on Glenn Murray and Stephen Warnock had contrasting views on the significance and meaning behind the celebration in the latest episode of BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast."It seemed like a moment, didn't it," said Murray. "The outpouring of emotion. The way he went right over to the Liverpool fans, even in a moment when he has been getting a little bit of criticism following the other two [contract] signings from Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk."I did wonder, is this a sign that he may be putting pen to paper? But I do think he is still walking out of the door, yet that doesn't mean he loves Liverpool any less."Former Liverpool defender Warnock added: "There has been a lot of talk about Trent [Alexander-Arnold] leaving. I still think he is trying to find his worth at Liverpool."When you are a youngster and you come through, you don't get the riches the other players get. What he has shown over the past eight years at the football club is the ability to change games single-handedly."I think he knows his worth in his head and I wonder if there is a side of him saying 'I am going to see what Salah and Van Dijk sign for and I want to push up and around those figures because I feel like I am an integral part of that [team]'."Listen to the Football Daily podcast on BBC Sounds
