Liam Manning has had a disastrous start to his Norwich City career, with the Canaries 20th in the Championship.
As a club that has recently been in the Premier League, and one that boasts one of the best strikers in the Championship, in Josh Sargent, Norwich should not be flirting with relegation to League One.
Norwich's 1-0 defeat last Saturday to Manning's former team, Bristol City, was their third straight league defeat.
Pressure is mounting on Manning, with Graham Bailey of TBR Football posting on X: "Norwich City are ready to part ways with Liam Manning and are already assessing viable options to replace him.
"Understand these include Stoke's Mark Robins, Gary O'Neil and Danny Rohl. Robins appears to be first-choice, if they could land him. He does have a release clause."

Robins is a former Norwich player, but is currently flying high with Stoke City, who are third in the Championship.
Therefore, it is unlikely that Robins would want to swap his current job to be Norwich's manager.
Gary O'Neil is currently out of work but gave a good impression of himself in his two managerial roles in the Premier League at Bournemouth and Wolverhampton Wanderers.
O'Neil has been out of work since being sacked by Wolves last season, so he may have to drop down into the Championship for his next role.
Rohl is an interesting option as he did well at Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship under difficult circumstances.
The German is still being linked with Rangers, and speculation that he could join the Scottish giants is growing with the news that Kevin Muscat is now out of the running.
