No matter what you think, these players were brought in under Hughes, so give him credit for it.
You try to say Kompany was 'scouted', but isn't every player, so by that statement, no manager should get the credit for their signings.
Kompany is one of the best CB in the Prem (If not Europe) and De Jong is an excellent DM, who seems to have lost his place of late, but is still an extremely talented player.
The OP's comment just seems bitter and even more strangely, out of the blue. Leave Hughes to try to continue his career, as he is still a decent manager, we just didn't have the time to see what may have come with him at the helm (I dobt we'd be as good as now, but we will never know). When we see Hughes on telly speaking against us, people say he is bitter, so us doing the same is equally as bitter.
Move on.
