Don't think Tony was unfair in his comments at all. Has everybody read the full webchat?
Rodgers has achieved fuck all to be honest. That's not to say we can't legitimately think we've got a brilliant manager, but so far Lambert's record possibly stacks up better. Back to back promotions and kept his teams up twice. Rodgers got promoted once, kept his team up, had a 7th place finish with us. Though currently we're flying high, nothing is signed and sealed yet and should we fall outside the top four and Villa reach midtable you'd probably have Lambert edging ahead.
It's really not crazy to think Lambert might turn out to be a better manager, especially if Tony hasn't taken to Rodgers yet.
How many managers get to go from one season in the Premier League to manager of Liverpool? Rodgers has been lucky. Good, but lucky too.
Think people would be surprised by how cordial Tony & our owners are, and how protective FSG are of Rodgers who is certainly not as infallible as people might think.
This should be the takeaway from his webchat:
"FSG want to win things. The league, Europe. The top four just a means to an end. They want to be in the title race every year"
