However, Harry Redknapp thinks Neil Warnock could rival him in the running.
Warnock took over as QPR manager in March 2010 and navigated the club away from relegation from the npower Championship before guiding them to promotion the following season.
Harry Redknapp: "I'm sure he could do the job.
"If you have good players you have a chance. Neil has done fantastically. To walk in there and take them up in his first full season takes some doing.
"People think it's easy but they've all been trying and no-one got near it. Suddenly he walks in and up they go.
"I don't think he gets the recognition he deserves.
"People love to knock him but he must be doing something right.
"People are always looking for magic formulas in football. He just understands the game.
"He understands good players, knows how to put a good team together and knows players who will do a good job for him.
"He puts them in the right slots and puts them all together and gets the best out of them."
