I wonder if Fergie will be moaning at the lack of injury time today? :THINK: :ASK:

What about Ancelotti then? Can he take Chelski to the next level? Seen as though Chelski lost to Man City. The same Man City who hadn't won in 7 league games previously.

Its an absolute disgrace if whats been said about Man City and Mark Hughes/ Mancini is true :?

By the looks of Hughes face at the end of the game it is true he looks well pished off

I really don't see Mancini making a success of it if the rumour is true. Yeah he did well in Italy but wasn't this at a time when most of the big clubs had been docked points/relegated? At least Hughes will get to leave with his reputation intact.

From the BBC live text,
1657: Mark Hughes claps every corner of the City of Manchester Stadium, waves to the City fans and then departs down the tunnel. Forgive me, but that looked like a farewell.

Well he's started off fine. Top of the league, 3 points ahead of Man United and a game in hand. Qualified for the CL unbeaten.

The jury is still out though. Poor selections against Blackburn and Citeh. Awful defending against Everton lost two points. His insistence on playing the diamond has pretty much killed Frank Lampard's performances.

The Man City defeat - hopefully just a bad day at the office.

But Hughes is under serious pressure with very little to fall back on. Carlo Ancellotti has 2 CL wins and Serie A title to fall back on, as well as being top of the league.

He was bitching because there was too much injury time. He was worried Fulham would get 4 or 5. :lol: :lol: :lol:

No offence but i hope you get beat tomorrow. There's a real chance that this year the league could be exciting instead of the usual 2 horse race although Chelski could easily make it into a one horse race if they find some consistency.

The jury is still out for me on your gaffer as well. I think he may well do well for a year or so but i don't know if he will be able to keep you ticking over for a long time.

TBF to Sparky the Man City job is a poisoned chalice. For me he has them progress just about well enough to keep his job. You don't turn into a title winning team overnight unless you have somebody like Mourinho in charge. Probably the worst thing about him leaving, if the story is confirmed at 1930, is that taking the Citeh job has probably ruined his chance of taking over from Fergie when he retires.

The pictures shown by SKY at the conclusion of the match suggested that Hughes knows his fate.
