Manager of the year

when I made that comment Liverpool had already won the Carling Cup and were in the FA Cup final.

to do the domestic cup double is impressive. I would swap that for a top 4 finish this season. How about you?

Me? When judging who manager of the season is i would base it off the following criteria: the style of football played, honours won and resources of the club relative to league position/honours won.

For me, a CC win and an FA Cup final would not put Dalglish up there as one of the best managers taking into account all the circumstances. In fact i would put him right down there as one of the worst. Horrible performances and home form, and nowhere near good enough for a club with the resources that Liverpool has had.

For me, it's between Mancini, Rodgers, Lambert and Moyes.

if you are going to mention Moyes then why not Wenger?
Moyes has had a decade of outright failure

at least Wenger has achieved something EVERY season

They finished above their rivals. Once again they were faced with financial difficulties but still finished in a decent position in the league. Much like Arsenal they had a bad start to the season but managed to finish fairly well. I've been impressed with Moyes' managing and the way his team plays.
For Wenger, he's at a much bigger club so the expectations for him to win manager of the season are greater.
