What has Nedum Onuoha done wrong? Apart from being injured quite often? Saw him warming up during Thursdays match; I thought at last a chance to show Mark Hughes what he can do!

After a couple of games to get back into the swing of things (given the chance please) ; he tackles well, he is superb in the air, he is very quick, he is cool under pressure and he reads the game very well for one so young! All right is distribution needs working on (not the only one). So what more is there? I would put him ahead of any centre back we have at the moment!

Come on Hughes give him a chance!

You hit it on the head, and that's been his issue his whole career, he is so injury prone.
 
Agreed. But I fear that rather than give him a chance, Hughes would prefer to let him go.
 
I have always thought that Nedum is a better player than Micah, and it was just his injuries that let him down. For some reason he isn't playing now despite being fit, yet Micah, Tal and Dunne can fuck up as much as they want without Nedum even getting a chance

I feel Nedum will be gone in January. Which is unfortunate for us, and a great benefit to whoever he signs for.

You said it in the first line, he's been blody injured. I suppose that's also Hughes fault.

so you are a hughes supporter i take it?

No I'm a City fan. I want what's best for the club and I'm fed up of hearing shite like 'lets make a Hughes out banner', 'will you sign my petition?' etc. Hughes has made mistakes, but we're not helping ourselves with all our negativity. Let's stop with all the bollocks and support the team like we use to.

you can still support the team but not the manager
the team under a different boss would do better no doubt about it. the talent is there but the leadership/management isnt.
therefore getting the manager out is best for the team. i dont see that as a negative approach i see it as a positive one.

hughes out

hughes out

So holding banners with Hughes Out will help the team? I doubt it. Sacking Hughes isn't positive, people are just assuming we'll be able to have our pick of a top manager, which I don't think we will have and even if we do there is no guarentee that it will be a positive move. Hughes has identified his targets and is waiting to get them. For me he has done well in this department, sacking him only puts us back to square one.

he can sign all the players he wishes but the results department is the most important and so far he has been shite in this one.
i dont think we will have our pick but there are certainly better options out there than hughes.to me i think rjikard would be the man for our job if we couldnt get jose.

I'd play Onuoha over Ben-Haim everytime.

agreed

Shall I tell you what fooks me off??

If, as we're led to believe, Hughes is now realising he's been thrown a turkey, in Haim... WHY the fook does he continue to play him??

I'll tell you why. Cos it was a HUGHES purchase, with him wanting Haim, all along. He's continued to play him, as a sense of pride, and we've seen evidence of this 'pride' issue ALL SEASON!

When there's no evidence to support the playing Vassell, he plays him. When there's no evidence for the continuance of Evans, he plays him. When there's no evidence for the inclusion of Haim, he plays him.

That's 3 crucial positions and they cripple us, in creation and defence. It's pride and stupidity and I'm fed up.
