The term midtable is used way too freely these days. Midtable is 7th -14th imo. United haven’t historically finished in these places - even in their poorer current state since 2013. Liverpool and Spurs have all had multiple legitimate midtable finishes in the last twenty years. United, bar the Moyes season, have not.

He’ll almost definitely get a shot with a midtable/relegation team. Spurs could be an outlier option if Ange progresses to better things or shits the bed. Liverpool? No chance. Newcastle will want to attract a top coach next as well. They won’t trade down with their aspirations.
