I think that is a fair point, and an approach which a number on here have advocated for over 12 months now. However at this stage 11 games into the season regardless how bad the performances, the reality is that this board will not make that decision until we have become separated from the group of teams we aspire to compete against. I think if and when we end up say 10 points behind 4th place is when a board will most likely start to ask serious questions.
As much as I would like to see Hughes go asap, I expect that 10 point gap scenario will not happen this side of xmas as we still have a game in hand and everyone seems to be beating everyone else, and a clear top 3 have now formed leaving a champions league spot up for grabs for any team who can put a decent run together. If we are still in touch come January, we should probably see the season out with him as I dont think we would have much to gain by sacking him.
Thats about as rational and moderate as I can be on the subject at the moment, as I am hoping we dont have the same sort of decline we did last season at this time of year. If we do, then I think we will be waving goodbye to Les before the next window opens.

A few interesting points, looking at those stats it suggests that Scolari had the worst win success rate at 56%,yet that still beats any season Hughes has had in his career as manager quite comfortably by nearly 10% and Scolari got the sack.
After Sacking Scolari and appointing Guus Hiddink as manager the Win percentage climbed an extra 17%, and after appointing Carlo Ancelotti it has climbed even further.
Remember the improvement in results has come with virtually the exact same squad of players.

I actually believe we have an excellent squad of players one of the best in the Premiership who are under achieving,.
I honestly believe a quality manager could get this side firing on all cylinders within a couple of weeks.
There would be no shortrage of applicants to work with such a plethora of talent.
Sacking clueless managers sooner rather than later is the way to go.

EXCELLENT POST, couldn't agree more with all them points and I just hope that Kool Khaldoon and HRH Sheikh Mansour, are aware for when their Private Jet lands in Abu Dhabi with a clueless manager on board and a string of Internationals.
