    The cups are only a bonus. The league is what mattered and he won it. I don't see how you can use that against him.

    Good eye for a player, shrewd tactically and an excellent motivator.

    Has shown he can get excellent consistancy out of a team.

    How is he not good enough?

    And can you answer my question, how exactly is that not an achievement?

    By having proved that he can get the best out of his players and not having to fork out loads for fees I would say.

    Right this is a end of it I am not putting it against him but he has done nothing to warrant him being good enough to go to norwich and keeping them up

    would love to see him there in a few years time :50:
    but for now i have more chance of being manager than neil lennon does!
    confirmed they havent approached for him and also dropping champions league and a young squad he has created to start over with a mid table possible fighting relegation team!
    madness

    On what grounds isn't he good enough to keep Norwich up? Because he didn't win two cups on top of winning the league and doing well in Europe. What a *.

    Juarez is a good player imo but he clearly doesnt see eye to eye with lenny and tbh i dont think he'll push vic joe kayal brown for a start in the cm role

    i think the position norwich finished in the epl would be harder job than us winning the spl

    What do you think is his managerial defencies? You seem to be using his achievements to make him out a bad amanager.

    Which is strange.

    Lambert has done a fantastic job at Norwich no doubt, but the EPL is not that good quality wise these days. Bar three or four teams its as poor as its been for a long time imo. I think with teams like Norwich and Swansea doing well proves this.

    what i am pointing out is we have more money more pull and pretty much should have won every * thing in scotland imo ,, i expected norwich to go down they finished in a respectable place thats all i am saying,
    I am not saying he is a bad manager i am saying i dont think he is good enough to do that

    Lennon will not be leaving Celtic, so it’s irrelevant.

    Any club outside the top 6 in the EPL is pretty much a downward step anyway.

    It is unrealistic to expect an 100% rate, Barcelona are the freatest team ever produced in the last five years and they don't have that.
