Hoop BlahBR0B0T When is Mark Hughes getting sacked? Great player, terrible manager!
He's got worse, but that might be a product of the teams he's having to manage, but he wasn't always a poor manager.
He did well for Wales, Blackburn and, to an extent, City before things have certainly gone downhill. I think he did a decent enough job at Stoke initially too, but nothing that really seemed sustainable, more just an uplift after releasing the Pulis handbrake!
He can't last long at Southampton though.
From F365:
Mark Hughes
Twenty-two points from his last 30 matches as a Premier League manager. The evidence of this season would suggest that Hughes has dragged Southampton down to his level.
They suffer from a lack of ambition against the weaker teams and can’t even lay a glove on the best clubs. If that makes Southampton sound like a mush lacking any obvious identity, Hughes’ critics might suggest that this is his party trick.
