Arsene Wenger was, eventually, sacked for under performance. Doesn't mean he did a bad job at Arsenal. Rodgers won the cup with Leicester and had them challenging for top four. He was pretty successful there for a fair while.

Wenger’s reign and Rodgers are not comparable mate.

An alternative view could be that he took over a Leicester team who’d fairly recently won a title and made them worse each season until his sacking and relegation for them.

Leicester weren't doing well when he took over, otherwise they wouldn't have been looking for a new manager. Winning the FA Cup is the second best thing they've ever done. The vast majority of managerial spells end in the sack, doesn't mean everything that happened up that point was shite.

Fair point about Puel. We’ll agree to disagree about Rodgers though. I think he’s done well in the Scottish Premiership with Celtic but outside that he’s not been brilliant.

Certainly not the elite coach many in the Scottish media and indeed P&B have him down as.

I thought Ange was going to revolutionise Spurs and lead them to trophies. Seem to be the same ineffectual Spurs who achieve nothing. 

They finished 5th, 2 points behind Villa last season. Ahead of Man Utd, Chelsea and Newcastle. What he could do with lifting an FA Cup / League Cup / Europa but how tough will that be. Not an easy job.

I see Flange Hasnygotaclue has been bragging about winning trophies in pub leagues: Ange Postecoglou: Spurs manager says "second-season trophy" remark not a "boast" - BBC Sport

Quote

The 59-year-old made the remark following Spurs' 1-0 home defeat by north London rivals Arsenal on Sunday.

He told Sky Sports: "I'll correct myself - I don't usually win things, I always win things in my second year. Nothing's changed."

Speaking on Tuesday before Spurs' Carabao Cup tie at Coventry, the former Celtic boss said: "It's amazing, isn't it? I just stated a fact. Am I supposed to just lie or just say it never happened?

"But do you really think it's me sort of boasting?

"It's just confusing to me that people are making a big deal out of something. I'm not sure how I'm supposed to answer something that is true.

"I've just said something that's true, and it seems like it's upset a lot of people for some reason."

Just telling you how it is mate.
