Gribz 850 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 In this order Tony Pulis Roberto Martinez 1 from Rodgers / Pelligrini / Mourinho - whoever wins the title. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Tony Pulis shouldn't be anywhere near this list, the football he plays is horrible. It would have to be Rodgers or Mourinho. Pellegrini bombed in Europe. Rodgers has been a revelation and Mourinho is masterminding another Champions League success. I would give it to Rodgers, though his side is heavily reliant on SAS and Gerrard. Mourinho is the greatest of all time, he can step aside for this one. PS - Martinez has done an excellent job in fairness. One of the top four need to sign Coleman - he is excellent. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 850 Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 Pulis should easily make the list, Palace were practically relegated when he took over and he is put them near mid table and beat Chelsea deservingly last week. Martinez has been the biggest breath of fresh air though, if he gets 4th id probably move him up to first. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has done a good job, Joel Ward is having a great season for them, but the football his sides play repulses me. It might avoid relegation but it will never achieve long term success. Hence why he manages Crystal Palace. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season is the biggest prize money for teams so for him to keep them up will set Palace up for the next 10 years....job done. But he is a dislikeable guy for some reason. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) I'd say it's a tough call between Martinez and Rodgers, certainly Rodgers is the "most improved" from having looked out of his depth early on but Martinez has produced a real team who were streets ahead of Arsenal last week. Martinez had a tough act to follow in terms of recent history but Rodgers has had to do it in the shadow of a long long line of top managers at Liverpool. If he wins the title he has to get it.

Scott7 6,002 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I see the argument for Pulis but no, not for me. Pellegrini? City play magical football. Rodgers? Very strong case but my granny wasn't a good manager and she'd do all right with Suarez in the team. But hold on, the Genius needs to be managed and BR seems to have got the hang of it. Mourhino? His record speaks for itself. Martinez? Oh yes and what could he do at Arsenal? Pellegrini's the one and it's still an hour or so 'til the kickoff at Anfield. Expect revisionism before evening. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 A small word for Pinnochio at Southampton - thin on resources, big on decent football. Made two average strikers World Cup candidates as well. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
