Well Done Geezer, I agree completely. But still to me Mark is ex Barcelona rather than you know who. But i cant agree more that time is what Mark Hughes needs, you can see he has the clubs best intentions at heart.
Take the Hull game for example, we were three goals up before half time and cruising and Hughes was still not happy stomping around with a face like thunder.
It just goes to show that he believes we can be doing much better than that. And as for the FA Cup game, That is just City all over we manage to batter Pompey and Arsenal at home yet get knocked out of competitions to Brighton and forest. I don't however think that game was Hughes' fault he had what must have been his best team out (that almost completely aren't the players of his choice!) yet the players showed no real desire or co ordination to win the game - We played like the away team in front of our fans.
I think that after this window and the summer window we will see alot of fresh and needed new players that are the type of player Hughes thinks will make the club stronger and more resiliant, He has already showed great promise by signing Kompany (was that his or Svens signing?), Robinho and lately Wayne Bridge which i for one am ecstatic about as i hate Ball.
On a brighter note im enjoying this month its so weird to see our club linked with these players we would of laughed about signing two years ago unless they were around the age of Gary Speed. I would like to see a replacement for Richard Dunne if im being honest his loyalty is superb but i think hes had his day with us, I would also love to see a left winger of a decent standard as Petrov is out for some time and then when he is back if anything should happen again we have good cover as Elano keeps saying he wants to leave. Also i think personally a keeper is needed, Joe Hart is a great keeper however when im at the ground and i sit wuite near the goal, I cant hear him he doesnt shout much to his defenders to organize them or tell them were they are going wrong at least when we had James he bollocked the defenders. Either that or get Schmeichel in the sticks.
