This is why Rogers ain’t the be all and end all. He has a great team on paper.

a good manager is about getting the most out of what you have. Leicester should be flying for 4th spot given the league, we have Nuno, United with Ole etc.

Potter and Franks have far weaker teams and get much more out of their mediocre players. They should be higher on the list.
 
Leicester playing like Spurs.

More worringly... are Woolwich good now?

Gabriel and White look like a good pairing.
Tomiyasu and Tierney/Tavares are decent.

And they they have a front 6 that are all technically competent on the ball.
 
Well, two points to be exact

Performances, not league table. That's what matters at this stage of the season. We aren't getting anywhere close to top 4 by the time the season ends if we play this kind of football from now till then. We're losing every big game against our rivals for that fourth position for a start, let's hope we can reverse that tonight..
 
Why is Rodgers so highly rated?!

He's a good coach. He's had some level of success at every side he's ever managed aside from Reading. Swansea were very good for their resources, Liverpool were inches away from a title (yes Suarez was brilliant but the team overall played great football), Celtic was a free hit but they still broke records and Leicester have won a trophy and been higher in the table than most would predict.

Yeah the Liverpool job ended badly and it looks like Leicester will too, but that's the life of a modern coach, at some point there's always a downturn and a sacking. He's got his weaknesses and not making top 4 with such a big points gap twice was shit, but overall he's been successful. People will say the Leicester team is good but depth wise it's awful and the starting XI still has some very meh players.

I'd take him here tomorrow if he got sacked, 100%.
 
Fuck knows. Only really won anything with Celtic other than the FA Cup. SPL trophies don’t mean a lot this side of the border unless you back it up like Fergie for instr. IMO anyway

None of the other teams he managed could be expected to win anything else. Liverpool were properly rubbish when he took over, a title challenge was a massive overachievement, then they sold by far their best player and signed shite to replace him. He likely had little say in those transfers as Liverpool function via a transfer committee. Sturridge also started being broken at the same time.

Unless you're expecting him to win league titles with Leicester, what the fuck else do you want from him?
