Answer
Sir William Robertson had poor relations with David Lloyd George because he was a cautious and methodical military leader who did not share the Prime Minister's belief in a decisive offensive on the Western Front. Robertson believed that the British army was not yet ready for such an attack and that it would be a mistake to launch it without the support of the French.
