Has to be Pulis or Rodgers. But the former is more likely

Pellegrini?! Fuck me. Some disillusioned people here.

Rodgers has already achieved the biggest feat regardless and will win it. Pulis great, Martinez also great.

I will decide at the end of the season. But I will probably vote for Harry Redknapp.

For me it is Pulis.

When he went to Palace they had 4 points from 12 games. Since then they have 36 points from 22 games. In the context of where they were to where they are now it's a monumental achievement.

I fear however Rodgers may get the nod. An awful choice


A funny old game isn't it

Rogers is falling deeper and deeper into insanity.

You can't give an award to someone who's clearly losing all association with reality.

Check out his latest little gem in his comments about suarez winning the poty. I'm actually getting worried for the man.

My choice, Pullis, has done a great job at Palace, and I couldn't argue too strongly against the job that Rodgers has done (although not being in Europe and getting knocked out of the cups early hasn't harmed his cause. Although he'll probably finish in about the same place as Moyes did at Everton (as he did at Wigan compared to Bruce), Martinez has done it with more style and made Everton enjoyable to watch again.

I wouldn't underestimate the job that Pellers has done. Who knows how the League will end up, but, we're in a strong position. Winning the League Cup and getting us into the knockout phase of the CL are not to be sniffed at. Importantly though, on top of that it seems to me that many players have improved under his guidance, for example, the way he dealt with Hart.

I'm happy with him.

Rodgers is right about one thing though - Suarez does fit the values of Liverpool!

Well that's definitely true.

He also said that liverpool play in a sporting manner.
Oh amd straight after the match he said "to do what we've done and be within two points of a team that has spent an absolute fortune..."

He can't shut his trap about the money. They have spent over 600m in the last ten years. STARTING from a fucking top three position.

To be honest he looked like a man who'd lost the league yesterday with his "end of season" review.

Let's hope that translates to his players against palace and the league might be won a bit earlier.

If we finish the job off and win the League it is surprising so many would discount Pells. The first ever Man City manager to win a double, and you would give that irritating twat at Liverpool? Wow.

Sorry Piccs - to the neutral Rogers must be a shoe in. He has made silk purse out of a sow's ear!

Why not Pellers? If he can get us over the line it will be some feat for a man that the media kept telling us had won nothing. Both Manchester clubs and Chelsea were due to have a season in transition as they all had new gaffers at the helm. I think we can safely say that our transition has gone a lot smoother than that of our neighbours with there far more experience premier league manager.

Yeah he has made errors along the way and has been on a steep learning curve at times but I have to say that we have played some unbelievable football this season and have scored goals for fun. I think if it wasn't for injuries to key players at key times we would have romped it.

I would say though that Pullis deserves a special mention. They were dead and buried when he arrived and he has turned them into a decent hard working team he don't give a lot away. I know he isn't everyone's cup of tea but he has worked a miracle there.

Oops. It's four a m here and i woke and read all this crap. I quite clearly meant to include the word "domestic" in there! :/
Still the point remains that if we were to win the title, then Pellers would be a worthy winner. Throw in two reasonably lengthy cup runs and a great style of football and well , it wouldn't be too shabby in his debut season in England. Certainly better than his counterpart up the East Lancs.

If we win the league, then it must be Pellers. If Liverpool win, then Rodgers for goby from 7th to champions. But Mourinho could still win two trophies.

Special mention to Pulis for what he's done and if Everton make the top 4, Martinez would be close.
