And no I'm not talking about Barcelona, Madrid, Inter.
Yes I'm talking about our very own Manchester City.
I was discussing this in another thread and seeing as I'm off to bed now I'm not going to write anything brand spankingly new (and you don't deserve it anyway! ;P) I'll just give you what I wrote on the Sven topic, as I believe I raised a very interesting question.
Now regarding Sven, I never wanted him to leave, he did wonders here, and I believe he would thrive in this postion right now. Especially with the current profile, investment and general position of our club. I do however believe that it would wrong to bring him back now... I just wish he never left.
I'll never forget singing his name at the Riverside, and watching him wave back in appreciation. :'(
I miss the feeling of having an ambassador of the club. Someone who made you proud, someone who you were genuinely proud to have as the manager of your football club. Someone who was unanimously respected and admired, a noble man, a man that you couldn't help but love. This is a man who in the summer of 2006 provoked feelings of hatred from myself and many other City fans, yet little more than a year later I -along with thousands of other blues- couldn't help but love him!
Now we have a manager who is managing (I use this word loosely) to make the same squad Sven got so much out of look like a Sunday league pub team, while adding Kompany, SWP, and Robinho - all players that would have walked into Sven's squad, and made it a significantly more successful team. We've also got a manager who makes me cringe with embarrassment with his Fergiscum like interviews, with his giant chin, with his greying rag top head, with his entire holier than thou demeanor. And last but certainly not least his dire and pathetically abysmal management of a quality football team.
Now the question I raised which I'm dying to put to my fellow blues;
May I ask; what has Mark Hughes done to prove he deserves what is the currently the best managers job in Europe if not the entire world?
A managers position with a quality football team, a football team which happens to house one of the most talented players in the world, a club with unlimited transfer funds, a club with the full backing of an incredibly rich (and patient) owner, a club with a large and incredibly loyal fan base, a club in the strongest league in the entire world, a club which you can build in your very own mould and how so you wish, a club which (with the right manager) is going to the very top of the world game, a club which you can build your very own dynasty at.
The managers postion at our club is one every manager dreams of, question is;
Does Mark Hughes deserve it?
