I don't think he is right at all. Why clear and let them have the ball when u can safely head it back to your goalkeeper. The moment of madness by Hart is the problem. And I watched the replay over and over again. Hart actually stopped at the edge of the box momentarily before moving again...

Re: Brian Marwood I think it is precisely because FFP is kicking in that we need someone better than Marwood to do the job. He has to 2 years to shift the players out and he still can't do it. Imagine someone at your workplace whose job description is to do something but he cant cut it, do...

Re: Brian Marwood I am not saying Marwood has an easy job of shifting players out but that is his job nevertheless. He is being paid top dollars and supposed to have the expertise and know how to do it and yes while operating under the guidelines set down by the owners. If he can't do it, he...

Re: Brian Marwood You don't get it. His job is pertaining to ALL transfers. He must be able to do all of them well. Is it difficult to get Aguero, Silva and Nasri in? They are not exactly cheap and on pitiful contract wages. Anyway, if you are only able to fulfil 50% of your job...

Re: Brian Marwood Successful transfer business as in huge transfer fees and contract wages? The same successful transfer business which see us unable to move out bridge, RSC and Ade now. Its all very simple, its marwood job to shift players in and out and if he can't hack it then he should...

Please refer to the picture on the top left of your screen.

I can easily put another spin to this and say it is easier for Hughes to buy whoever he needs then and mold them into whatever formation he desired whereas Mancini has to make do with what was passed on to him.

We should just get over this and move on. The sending off is absolutely crucial in determining the outcome of the match. I doubt we will get a sending off in the 4th minute for this season again so there is no point to dwell on this. BTW, is Kolo playing? lol

Am I the only one who think De Jong is very much over-rated? I must say he is very tenacious and harworking but his ball controlling skill and passing is very average and his tackling and break up plays most people hyped up is nothing special compare to barry or viera. And of course we know he...

I think you are too impatient. Remember all the players were inherited from hughes. Mancini cant just simply discard them so he will need time to see how to fit them into his system. Some will and some will not. Sofar he has only 2 months to do it(plus all those injuries to players and the...

Agree. I dont expect De Jong to contribute much on attack being a DM but IMO his passing and ball control is not all that great. What I can't fault him is that he is indeed very tenacious but that is not good enough, I want better passing and ball control so that we dont loose possession so...

How can anyone possibly know that? You are laughable. Sacking Hughes is a good decision in terms of points gained so far. And we are comparing Hughes who have 18 months and 200 million to spend on players he wanted to play in whatever way he deem fit to Mancini who have 2 months to work...

I dont think you can even compare the two of them yet. Hughes have 18 months and all the players were bought to play according to whatever tactics he deem fit. IMO, of the 200 millions spent, hughes have overpaid 100 mil for the players we got.

So any player that we signed or gonna sign is not by Mancini if they are not from Italy? What an idiot.

Currently, Zab plays RB and Kompany CD. And Vieiri is still injured. Like you said, Barry may need an operation soon. And the thing is we cant keep playing DeJong and Barry, they will get tired/loss of form/injured. And what if we want to play 3 in the middle? IMO, we need at least 1 more...

The fact is Hughes still spent 200 mil and was given 18 months. I don't think Mancini should be afforded with the same time and money but consider the injuries we have now, he should be at least given something like 50 mil to spend on players he like so that he can take us to top 4 in 6 months...

So finally you realise that "the judge him when it is his squad" is just a load of bullshit that Hughes have you believed?

"I was not getting a chance to play when I deserved to. Mark Hughes never explained why." Says it all about his man-management skills.
