The sad thing is that very few managers would have been able to get much out a of squad that had just lost gerrard, suarez plus failed to make a top quality signing.
Rodgers lack of experience was slightly problematic but I don't doubt his ability as a coach, the way he turned Suarez, Coutinho and Henderson into the world class players they are today, nearly guided a team to the title with such little net spend and stabilised a club that was in chaos.
He will do a good job at chelsea, if the rumours are true.
That's a fact.

I didn't say he wasn't a flop. Just that he's better than any manager you have had for 20 plus years.

How can he be better, he didn't win a thing

Didn't he?

I think Rodgers was hard done by.
The inability to attract and keep top players was down to the state of the club, not him.

Obviously it was down to both him and the club. Thats not debatable so I dont think he was hard done by.

I think the earlier list for Everton managers needs a review then

Ok maybe I was too emphatic there but surely who the manager at a club is influences the club's success or failure in the market, no?

other than getting former players, not really for me
it's all about money and trophy potential for me. And they're more or less the same thing ultimately.

But who the manager is is also crucial to trophy potential, which is what players look at after money. Rodgers is zero trophy potential.
Having Pep as manager, for instance is very different to having Rodgers. Rodgers was unable to attract the required calibre of player to take us where we want to go.

we disagree is all, not a big deal
for me who the manager is is practically irrelevant unless everything else is dead even. Which is very rare.
If we rehired Houllier then announced we had City/Chelsea/United Funds to last us a decade from a big Euro millions win, players would crawl over broken glass to sign.
If we hired Pep but said we're going to continue with the current model of self sustaining finance, I don't think any top 'name' would join us unless he and Pep were besties from working together from the past.
It's the money, not the manager at the end of the day.
