Hughes..the reality

whats to stop club employees logging on as 3/4 different people and putting the "hughes in" agenda out there

everytime someone has something to say, even if it is constructive criticism - "oh it's bullsh*t"

why settle for 2nd best ?
so what about the 'hughes in' people who have been members of this forum since before he joined the club?

I think the OP is right.

I think Hughes is shit and im not the only one, by far.

I also think us as City fans rate our own players much better than they actually are -

SWP - First touch is wank & runs into people - DOES NOT GET FOULED ALL-DAY LONG. Just runs into people.

Kompany - Decent, but shit at passing

de Jong - Thinks its rugby and doesn't pass forward.

Bridge - Has he even made a tackle in a City shirt????

Zabaleta - Good coming forward (good, not excellent), but quite poor at defending.

Just my views however

im with you %100 ive always thought that glad to see some sensible city fans on here!
You could go through every footbal team in the world like this!
Kaka - not great in the air
Pele - didn`t track back enough
Maradonna - Not tall enough
Zidane - gives away too may fouls.

Try it with United then explain why they are doing ok?

But all quality players who stood out, game-in, game-out.
And thats the big difference, our guys do not stand out, game-in, game-out! In fact its far to rare that they do.
No they don`t I`ve been to games feauring Kaka and Zidane over the years and they don`t always have blinders - can have fairly non effective games.
It`s about getting the mix of qualities right - can`t always have a team of total players like Cruyff unfortunately

Of course they have odd bad games, but over any given period, its their 'regular' ability to produce quality, that makes them the best players in the world and legends 20, 30, 50 years after they call it a day.

Gotta say, i find it absolutely incredible thats you associate the likes of Kaka, Maradonna, Pele and Zidane with the likes of anything we have at City.

They are worlds apart mate, and for very good reason.

Maybe - but apply your critique of players weaker points to utd or Liverpool.
And although not there yet - I do believe Robinho, Ireland, DeJong, Given, Onuha, perhaps Zab and Boj are up there with the best in their positions and could become great names - hopefully!

Well thats why we come on here my friend, opinions are what makes forums.
Personally, i think Sunday shown that we are worlds apart from the top 4 and as another posted mentioned, apart from the top 4 or 5 players, we readily overate our current squad.

Also agree Hughes is a mid table manager for mid table players 18 mths ago would have been good for us, would he manage a top 4 club, who would the Rags get in, if bacon quit, not Hughes or Bruce
