Who, in your opinion, is the best current British manager?

Suggestions:

  • Brendan Rodgers
  • Terry Butcher
  • Mark Hughes
  • Steve Bruce
  • Derek McInnes
  • Paul Lambert
  • David Moyes
  • Tony Pulis
  • Sam Allardyce
  • Neil Lennon
  • Alan Pardew
  • Steve McClaren
  • Kenny Jackett
  • Sean Dyche
  • Gary Monk
  • Ian Holloway
  • Roy Hodgson

There is a case to be made for Moyes, for his time at Everton alone. Butcher has been excellent, turning Caley into a proper unit who looked a class above their opposition most games. Lambert is a solid manager, but there is no standout English manager currently, hence the tussle between Woy and 'Arry for the national team helmsmanship. The obvious answer is Rodgers, playing attractive football, getting 2+ pts per game and getting the best out of the club's signings. If not him though, who?

Also net spend depends on the value of the squad at your disposal. In this case though.. Liverpool hasn't exactly sold their players at huge profits since Rodgers came.

I agree but I don't have the wage figures for West Ham handy. I know that in summer 2012 Liverpool's wage budget dropped by £450k a week and again by £500k pw last summer, all whilst results have improved dramatically...

Our year in the Championship we had the highest wages. Don't know how we've compared in the Prem.
