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.

He was never going to last the season even if they were top of the league just now, look at Grant at Chelsea, one kick away from CL victory, and Chelsea claim they were sacking him, even if they had won it.

With the money City have, they are always going to be looking for a big big name, im surprised its Mancini tho, doesn't seen big enough for the richest club is world football, i thought they would be ion for Jose offering £250,000 Per Week

No chance of getting a Mourinho until you have champions league football.

Wouldn't be suprised if Mancini is a deal to end of season and then re-evaluate depending on whether they get top 4 or not.

Matter of time, Probs a nice pay off though, will make a good prem manager for a team with no/limited funds

Apart from the financial rewards this would seem to be the worst job in the country to me. Expectation level is far higher than they are capable of achieving in the short term and if they continue to pay 20 million plus for just average players they arent likely to challenge in the long term either.

It seems i'm in the minority because although they could have handled it better I think the sacking is completely justified,and I like Sparky.

Would you be happy with him at Anfield if Rafa were to be relieved of his duties?
