Hughes for me.
And I wanted us to then reemploy the **** so we could sack him again.
Absolute complete waste of space

Pep when he didn't play a defensive midfielder in our first CL final. I am of course being facetious. But I wasn't best pleased with the great man for a little while.

Bobby brought in Yaya and Merlin.Mostly Hughes but he did get us to our first Semi Final since 1981 and brought the likes of Yaya Toure (mostly down to signing his Brother), David Silva (ex rag Gibson did some of that work?) Pablo Zabaleta and Carlos Tevez. A good shout for Pearce. He was beyond useless.

That was clear to see after our victory in Istanbul last June.Was never really a fan of Stuart Pearce as a footballer for City.
He did have a good career (especially as coming from non-League, into the professional game late), but came too late to City.
He still thought you could dive-in on the opposition and get 2 or 3 warnings. Lived on his past reputation and was not aware times had changed.
So when he became Manager, I was gutted.
He may be a good Coach ? But, definitely not a manager, as seen with his more recent role at West Ham.
From what I've heard, since he has left Manchester City, he is a bitter ex-employee with a severe grudge ?
Nope Hughes (or Mike Rigg) did most of the scouting work Roberto Mancini gave the nod and did most of the coaching. In Yaya''s case Hughes brought in Kolo Toure.Bobby brought in Yaya and Merlin.
Pretty much all of them at the end. Pellegrini and Mancini got loads of stick near the end of their tenure, but it was probably not the majority. Hughes for sure - although he did do some good things imo but not the level we needed - and especially Pearce before him. Pearce was absolutely fucking miserable to watch.
