It's been very easy to mistake your posts as an exoneration of Hughes to be honest, as you seem to think him getting to a a two-legged semi-final in a lowly valuded competition, represented some kind of achievement.peoffrey said:You've misunderstood what I was saying about the League Cup exit when Mancini came in. I think a better Manager would've got us through. I've not actually advocated keeping Hughes on - more indicated it wasn't the disaster many would have us believe. Let's face facts here... He's ex-U****d and too many Blues would never accept him. I know far too many who took that stance. I know two who returned their Seasoncards.
Klopp's done nothing in Europe? That Dortmund team were exceptional at City and they've got a perfectly winnable tie against Malaga in the Quarter Finals. That's easily the Semi Finals and then who knows? Chelsea and Liverpool have won the trophy in recent seasons.
I'd back keeping Mancini if we can be convinced that things will improve. I'm pained to see us so far being U****d in the Premiership and think the FA Cup run has been flattering. There's got to be changes somewhere.
Yes, Klopp has done nothing in Europe. Quite easy to say. He's got a 50% record of getting through the group stages (lower than Mancini's), and has got to a quarter-final, which Mancini has done twice. So forgive me if I'm not yet overwhelmed by this as I'm not by Mancini's European record either. Mancini's done nothing in Europe either but at this point he's done more than Klopp. When he's won something, then you can talk him up. However, I'm interested in what you said when you said our next manager should be able to sustain a title challenge and progress in Europe, I think that's a fair point, but that's not what Klopp has done is it? He's 20 points behind. So why is he to be our next manager?
It just seems this thread is full of people who want Mancini out but I haven't seen many achievable suggestions with an undoubtedly superior record. Strangely, although most of the Outers, understandably so, have listed European prowess as a must, suggestions for those managers are running very thin on the ground. Benitez certainly hasn't been a popular name and yet look at his European record. It's one of the very very best.

Hughes record against the rags as City manager was played three, lost three, and we're supposed to believe Hughes would have got us through over two legs? Comparing Hughes' record in the FA Cup is even more laughable. Hughes got us knocked out to struggling Championship side Nottingham Forest, 3 fucking nil at HOME!
Mourinho: Not coming
Klopp: Not coming, 20 points behind leaders, done nothing in Europe anyway.
Pellgerini: Won fuck all of any note.
Rijkaard and Bielsa, two more sensible suggestions at least but I haven't heard their names connected with us yet.
So, assuming none of these came, you'd back keeping Mancini, yes?

I'm afraid some people have short memories peoffrey
I remember this board blaming him and going in to meltdown when he played Boyata in front of Onuoha in both legs of the Semi
