Clueless hasnt beaten the rags yet.
Clueless spent more money in a year than Sven did.
All these facts have been pointed out before but the Hughes lickers choose to ignore them.
And this bollocks about the players laughin after the boro game is just stupidity.What do you want grown men to do sit there and cry.
Sometimes people laugh to hide their true emotions.
The fact that there was only one player there from Svens tenure says to me that Clueless is been put in a position that he doesn't have to work with any players he didnt buy not that they wern't any good.
We've come a long, long way since the Sven-era. The fact that you still can't grasp the magnitude of the improvement is a shame for you.
The Sven era was limited by the money Frank gave him which is not comparable to what Hughes has available.
I think for the money Sven had and the team he inherrited he did very well and somewhat overachieved.
Quite the opposite with Hughes for me.
The optomism we have this season should have been evident last season for my view.
For me this season is only what I expect.
We may have come a long way since the Sven era, but I'm sure we could have got here with a number of different managers, including Sven considering the finances available to us.
The fact that we are not in Europe this year suggests to me that we are not in an era that is to far from where we have been in the past so the progress Hughes has made does not impress me that much.
The fact that he has been able to buy quality is nothing more than is to be expected.
tut tut, you had to bite didn't you Guy. hook, line and sinker.
I was just gonna say the same thing! I'm a new man - I used to fall for these wind ups from retards but no more I tell you! Anyone that calls the a manager that has had the start that Hughes has had "clueless" is either a WUM or mentally challenged - either way, giving a reasonable response is absolutely out of the question.
On topic - I said it last year and I'll say it again now. I'd have Hughes over Sven any day of the week.
1) Both managers had to endure turmoil and bad press and Hughes handled it much better
2) Hughes buys better players
3) Hughes' football is far far more attractive
4) A number of players have publically stated that training and spirit has improved immensely.
5) He is widely regarded as one of the brightest young managers in the game, so can also bring stability longterm
6) Everyone at the club knows and has agreed publically that he is the boss and what he says goes. He is a real leader, Sven wasn't
I appreciate what Sven did for the club, but at the moment I wouldn't want any other manager than hughes.
So fuck all you Sven-lickers ;)
