For me THIS is the key appointment and will make all the difference to Mancini's reign.
He is a top class coach and knows the premier league well. At the very least we can be sure of better class coaches than Hughes's no mark mates.
I think Hughes's coaching staff let him down, it was obvious that Bowen wasn't able to organise the defence tactically. Hughes should've got a top defensive coach in.
Anyway, Brian Kidd is class and hopefully we can get a decent coaching staff set up now. Would love for Paul Hart to come in as well in some capacity.
