If they sack hughes, they could try luring Hiddink who should be available after Russia failed to qualify.

Krayola:

Hughes should be fired today. This team isn't improving. There are no signs that they are getting better. NONE.
Who should replace Hughes? No Englishmen, please. . .they are all clueless, bar maybe redknapp

Moyes Hodgson & Hughes are all brilliant managers.
Citeh is not settled yet especially in the defence.

Nobody was saying Ranieri was clueless in 2003, why crucify Hughes.
Toure, Lescott, Bridge are not exactly world class players.
None of em will start for Man Utd

Is it just me or is the lower rung of the worst crop of coaches filled with British nationals
Manchester City is a classic case of Management gone wrong. Hughes and his Technical team are entirely at fault here, A complete overhaul is required if they must succeed. I hate to say that its going to get worse over the course of their next 2 games as they face an Arsenal in the Carling cup who's cut for a revenge after their last EPL encounter (pity Van Persie is out injured) and a Chelsea whom (by hook or crook) won't settle for a draw

Hughes management prowess is seriously under doubt at the moment. I'm not being equivocal here but the reason for his failure last season was the depth required in his squad. He clearly spelt it out. Now he currently manages the most expensive sets of players in the league who were solely purchased for their pedigree (even though a few come with outrageous price tags). Quote me if i'm wrong but Robinho still holds the record for the highest paid player in the league.
In my opinion, if you manage an Ireland, a Lescott, a SWP, A TEVEZ! Should i go on?, a Toure, an Adebayor, a Robinho or a Shay Given and you still have room for a Santa Cruz and a Bellamy on the bench, FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION! 7 draws out of 7 calls for the boot especially when only 2 out of the lot (Liverpool and Aston Villa) are major contenders.

How many league games has Robinho played under Hughes this season?

His problem is his defence.
Toure and Lescott are waste-pipes. I doubt Toure will start for Man Utd when everyone is fit.

Hughes is shit. The team plays crap. Teams with worse players look more a unit than City. We need to get rid of him ASAP. If we are going to spend all this money we need a coach that knows what the fukc to do with it. If Mourinho wants to come back to England we should just fling money in his direction. Hughes isn't going to take this team anywhere. U have someone as tall as Adebayor in the box and u can't make sure he's getting crosses fed in to him. Too many games that we have lost the lead late in the game. About three or four straight games now. It is disgusting to watch.

I thought this is the first season all the defence unit are playing together, no?
U can't just bring A-B-C-D together in the defence and expect them to have a chemistry.

LMAO Sauron, and this is why your intelligence begins where our's peak neh? Bagga!
Hughes is unfortunately not a quality coach

U can't just shop and shift defenders and expect them to deliver.
Look around the BIG 4. . . . .All the defenders have spent seasons together, working out the understanding and the team chemistry.
For Hughes. . . . .It's a new defence unit entirely---playing together for the first time this season. U can change 1 or 2 and manage. . . .but the entire back four? Trouble looms.

Sauron, is it only in defence? Did you see hgow Bullard was running their midfield. after initial gra gra Ireland became tired, De jong didnt even know if he was meant to defend or push for a win.

The togolese was. . . well, the togolese. Santa cruz came in and lacked any impetus going forward. Bellamy touched the ball only once after he came in!!!

It is their whole team, the erronously belived after buying th e deed was done, thanks to appendage riding media bullsh*t.

slimshay:

Sauron, is it only in defence?

When the defence is shaky, it affects the whole team.
Going forward, i don't think Man City have performed badly.
They ripped Liverpool to shreds last week and they destroyed Arsenal in August.

It is that defence that needs to tighten up.
Hughes should go to Serbia/Ukraine/Croatia and get 3 top defenders there.
If he gets 2 Vermaelen look-alikes, they will become world beaters.

Are you really telling me the present man City we are watching now pose an attacking threat going forward? Look beyond the names, they just lack the co-ordination.

If Bullard had been a more technically apt player, Man City would have very well lost today. Their midfield was in-efficient.

Even if they tighten up their defense, you dont win when they dont score goals and it takes just a slip to lose 3 points.

una they learn work. you either a gunner or a learner.

Critics will realize now that money can't buy you wins.
Chelsea became a dominant force not because of the money but for the team spirit and drive.

Bring Hughes over to CFC and watch him excel.

It's more than spending millions on players and managers.
If the team lacks synergy it can never perform.

Well atleast we now know the secret. Kolo has a love of records so He's given Mancity one in only his first season. At Arsenal he have us 49 games unbeaten and now He's given city 7 consecutive draws

Ed, no be small thing oh!!!

Citeh! What's going on?

Robinho Only Fit To Play In The Circus - Franz Beckenbauer

He's only alluding to the fact that Robinho is not a team player

Next is ManU in the Carling Cup semis.

Citeh 2 - Chelski 1

Moni pass Moni
نقود pass Деньги
Arab pass Russian

I am sure you musta changed your stance about Citeh now.
They are as good as any other top club going forward but with lethargic defenders like Bridge, Lescott and Richards, they are bound to slip.

biina:

Next is ManU in the Carling Cup semis.

Don't push ur luck brother!

If man City fire Hughes and bring in someone like Hiddink tomorrow, not only will they win atleast one cup but they'll qualify for the UCL with games to spare. That is provided they don't suffer the kind of injuries Arsenal seem to be plagued with.

I ddidnt watch the game yesterday but I'm downloadin it right now. 

looked at the table if we win our game in hand we will be eight points behind chelsea. If only we were able to get a win in one or two of those billion games we drew. . . pity.

Happy about the result yesterday tho. Too bad i couldn't watch it live

Krayola kid, watch the game and see how talent is going to waste in that sheety side of yours. You need a "real" coach who wants to win, not one who wants to avoid losses.

MssCrackle:

Don't push your luck brother!

Luck?
1. Its the Carling Cup. I doubt SAF will be fielding his first 11, while Citeh will field 12 players if they are allowed.
2. Citeh have revenge on their minds
3. and even when ManU were at full strength and Citeh were missing players like Adebayor, it still took a extra inury minute goal for them to win at old trafford

Citeh will win the Carling Cup.

biina:


Citeh will win the Carling Cup.

[size=18pt]AMEN!![/size] That will be one more trophy than Arsenal has seen in the last 5 years.

Not even crossed their perennial ass whoopers in the semis but they're already talking of the cup. What did that man call this type of mentality again ?

Of the seven draws if they had lost 3 and won 4 they would be 5 points better than they are today.

and if they had won all seven?
Man Citeh have still picked up more points in their first 14 games than your useless bayern did

Citeh 11 points behind leaders Bayern 4 points behind leaders.
