Man City are complete failures! Let's all laugh at 'em!

There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Also good to see Huseless complaing about cheating and diving. You'd never do that would you Hughsie?

Richest club in the world. Two points off bottom. D'you think Hughes should've stayed at Blackburn?

Dunno, but he must be a good bet for the next manager to go.

Roy Keane aswell looks abit depressed up at Sunderland. Always thought meself that he seems as though he thinks he's above them.

Aye, you don;t spend all that money to lose at home to Spurs, or away to Bolton. He's on a sticky wicket I would say. With the transfer window looming, he;d better go on a winning run or they'll be looking to give their cash to someone else I would think. That said, I think he's the right manager, but the Arabs will want a big name I fear.

Don't think he'll be in charge come the transfer window. My guess is there are translators being employed in various corners of europe with expertise in arabic/italian, arabic/dutch, arabic/spanish, arabic/portuguese in 'conversations' with Champions League performers and winners...

Mark Hughes is only the right manager for the much-loved and often-ludicrous Man City. The soon-to-be international 'brand' requires something different.

Whether they get it or not is quite another matter... But it happened at chelsea...

Should be interesting. Henry Winter keeps going on about how Mark Hughes is one of the best British managers. City don't look organised at all.

Well from the radio commentary that I was listening to, bobby5, it sounded like City were wiping the floor with them until the first sending off. :conf:

A rather pleasing moment from the weekend. Turned on BBC2 last night to see Hughes being interviewed. Despite not seeing an results yesterday it was immediatley obvious that his side had lost.

'Ha! Ha! It hought Blackburn've been beat.' Then a split second later 'Ha! Ha! Ha! He's at City isn't he?'

If thre's one thing I like more than Blackburn losing it's City.
I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

Wabbout Danny Shittu for us?

Still, by the sounds of madmarx and TPFKA, Diouf's moment of madness at the weekend is a rare un in a good season for him.

When you spend 9m on a keeper, 2m for an attacking outfielder is only for squad fillers....

Not to mention £5mil for a centre forward who they've loaned out after a season.

Thats why i can't agree with anyone who thinks Roy Keane is a good manager, i bet most would be able to keep a side up (and nothing more) with all the money he's pissed up the wall.

Well in a week in which Mark Hughes has had a meeting with his down to earth employers who aren't at all obsessed with star names, Robinho has been made Man City captain.

All end in tears.

Losing 1-0 now. TBH gets booked and then gifts Cousin a goal, with Micah Richards an accomplice.

I know AOB/Cahill get some stick on here for not defending crosses, but our two centre halves look like Maldini and Cannavaro in comparison with the clowns on show here. Hilarious defending.

Listened to the City game on the wireless yesterday. The commentary described the first goal (for Hull) which was caused by a mistake from Tal Ben Haim as being 'a cock-up of Holocaustal proportions'. Is that not a bit of an over-reaction? Particularly considering where Ben Haim is from.

Are you sure you weren't listening to Radio 'Ull? He might have said "'Ull is on't coarrst!" or something.

Ireland has been immense this season.

We really are shit judges of players on here, i remember most of us turning our noses up at us signing Stephen Ireland and his poncy Land Rover.
