Hughes can't cut it
Posted by Tad Davison at 22:52 UAE time
During the football transfer window, Manchester City's Brazilian striker, Jo, went out on loan to Everton. His form at City had been indifferent if not poor, yet for Everton, he shows his true brilliance.
During the mid-week showpiece international game between Italy and Brazil at the Emirates Stadium, the Manchester City duo, Robinho and Elano, were absolutely fantastic and showed real class. Their recent form for the club however has been disappointing - both before the international, and again today with City losing comprehensively to struggling and manager-less Portsmouth.
There is of course one common denominator, and his name is Mark Hughes. These examples clearly show that he cannot get the best out of his players even when those players are truly world class, and under his managership, I fear City will continue to fare badly.
Manchester City Football Club have a golden opportunity right now to replace Hughes - a man no self-respecting City supporter would ever really warm to anyway because of his connections with Manchester United - and hire one of the best and most knowledgeable managers in world football.
Big Phil Scolari would be an ideal candidate to replace Hughes. His former club, Chelsea, are in turmoil and foment with unsettling problems that reach far beyond the control of either the managerial or playing staff, so Scolari's sudden departure from Chelsea should not be an impediment to his future success at another club. I have every confidence Scolari could turn City's lack-lustre performances around. I cannot say that about the present manager.
Hughes has been given his chance and has been found wanting at every turn. Time to call it a day and get the club back on track and headed for the success they so richly deserve. Sad to say, Hughes just can't cut it. Even City's recent 'good' results had more than a little fortune about them. They sure weren't down to a good game plan - that much was clearly self-evident - and that just isn't good enough for the richest club in the world with aspirations to match.

City Signings
Posted by Eric the Red at 20:51 UAE time
Tad, I agree totally about Bellamy this is a short term buy which knowing his reputation will do nothing for the team. The blokes trouble so being a Red I'm happy to see him on his way to Eastlands, Kaka is obviously not happy about moving otherwise the deal would be done by now..! Hughesie will unfortunately be on his way come the summer to be replaced with some european manager.

Manchester City signings
Posted by Tad Davison at 17:57 UAE time
I'm worried about City's 'Dragnet' approach to transfers. Hughes casts the net wide just to see who might be interested in joining us. That doesn't shout 'forward thinking' to me, but it DOES suggest that others really see us as a leaderless, unstable club in turmoil. Players SHOULD be queuing up to sign, but it seems Hughes hasn't got a plan or the personality to attract them. My big worry with Bellamy is that he'll upset an already fractious dressing room, and that will do nothing for team spirit, morale, or results.

Kaka...
Posted by Confused chappy at 09:04 UAE time
Good on Kaka, i don't blame him for taking advantage of the situation. We would all ask for a rise if you thought you could get it, the moneys there, so why not ask. Its like all the landlords in dubai, they see a pot of gold(expats) and want to rob it as a quick and for as long as they can!!!!!! The Italian league are a bunch of divers anyway, the premiership is were it's at.

go or not to go
Posted by Andrew at 19:00 UAE time
I'm a supporter of Ac Milan and now the feeling between the team and the player is broken, the 2 way that Kakà can take are different but in the end they will finish at the same goal...Kakà will leave Milan right now or at the end of the season! Money don't give you happiness but 110 mln € are insane...!

Kaka's Salary Demands
Posted by leslie welland at 15:23 UAE time
As AC Milan are not even in the Champions League this season, why would Kaka request compensation? Kaka is not after the money. If he moves, it will be for the challenge so why does this reporter want to insult him? Maybe because they rushed out a premature article claiming that Kaka had already signed for City before checking their source. Poor journalism in my view.

Kakà
Posted by Italian Fan at 03:45 UAE time
Money is not enough to make a good team and to win, as other teams'experience can teach. I'm just sorry that we will never see the real Kakà playing anymore and he will never win an other award in his whole life...

Kaka its better not to look at the money but look at the effect of your decision on the people you love and those who love you i know you are a christian and i believe that moving to man city will be a mistake. remember that the bible says money is the root of all evil.i only wonder what intentions man city has to splash such money arround to me it looks like a redefined slavery

Manchester City
Posted by Tad Davison at 00:46 UAE time
I have supported Manchester City for 40 years and the new ownership is a blessing from God. But if we can now afford the best players in the world, why not the best manager in the world?
Can we really say that Mark Hughes is in that category?
I see mistake after mistake each week on the playing field that a good manager would have put right on the training field before the game. Hughes has won nothing as a manager and City desperately need a manager with proven pedigree for it to work.
One player does not a team make, but one bad manager can be catastrophic. We can't afford to have Mark Hughes' incompetence any longer.
