In the middle of all the sympathy for Hughes, was the fact that players like Sturridge

Etuhu and Chedders were left behind

Especially chedders, on the up the whole time, and just sat in the reserves when he wasn't bailing out Hughes's shocking attempts at trying to win the Uefa cup

It wasn't just Man City, he let John Ward pinch Joe Garner to carlisle for 100k whilst manager of Blackburn. They sold him with a nasty cruiciate knee injury to forest for ?1.4m. Would have been interesting the price if he was fit

I don't buy any sympathy for Hughes, he had plenty of time, he bought safe and had no idea how to manage the Europeans that Sven brought in

?35m for Robinho? Makes me wonder if Hughes ever watched that much la liga
