Academic question I know but it's a football chat room

So.....

When Martinez and Rodgers were interviewed for the Liverpool job did (with hindsight) FSG pick the wrong man.

I know he had a bad spell with Everton but overall seems to be making a good fist of it with limited resources

Yes Martinez was the better option having said that I would of had Laudrup and Koeman ahead of Rodgers too.

Martinez's signings have been better. Not sure he is that great though, they finished above us regularly before he took over.

Yeah I'd agree with this, very similar managers although Rodgers spent an awful lot more money.

Comparing Martinez to Rodgers is like comparing Klopp to Mourinho.

In any case, from trophies won, Martinez is better, Rodgers never even made it to a final

Neither can sort a defence out.
But they bought stones and brought through some quality players and bargains

We over spent on pretty much everyone we bought except coutinho

So on that basis I'd say martinez but he had lower expectations
