in an era where managers aren't given enough time, isn't it strange that the arab billionaires kept faith with hughes for far too long? you can look at their season in two ways: they've only lost twice, but they've drawn against burnley, hull and bolton. i personally don't like hughes, or see him as top 4 standard, but nevertheless the way he was sacked today was disgraceful.
and is mancini actually that good? calciopoli made winning Serie A much, much easier. somehow i don't see mancini-citeh working out...
