I prefer to look at the way Hughes is getting the best out of players like Ireland, Cacedio and Robinho where previous regimes had failed.
Yeah, most people do too, but look where it has got us! For anyone to claim that SGE was a shite manager and brought in poor players is a fucking joke frankly.
Say what you want, but at the end of this season, if we finish higher than last season, I will show my arse. Let's bare in mind that we have SWP, Robinho and Kompany this season too. You can say what you want about SGE, but his league position is all that matters in my book, MH can hide behind excuse along the lines of, "we were a poor side towards the end of last season" all he wants. You cannot hide from the tables.
People need to stop making excuses for MH and get a reality check. As it stands, the club is going backwards, and if all these players that MH has brought in are as good as you say, why are we not making any kind of positive progress? Also bare in mind that SGE transformed this club from relegation foder to a top 10 club with just 40 or 50 million quid and 2 weeks.
