BARNES OUT
If we win the game in hand we're still 6th. Getting sick of reading this.
And I didn't say I disagreed with any of that, I probably agree with most of it. I wanted him sacked last season when we were in the bottom 3 at christmas after losing at the Hawthorns, hence the "year late" comment.
And in any case, the Adebayor's and the Robinho's aren't the problem here. It's the defence. It has been since he started. We've seen a central defensive pairing in Micah and Dunne that were almost impenetrable under Sven until the last third of the season become absolutely terrible in a matter of months, before he basically ships both and buys players of quality for those positions.... who suddenly can't defend again. Lescott, Toure, Bridge, Kompany, Barry. All players of quality (though Lescott and Bridge are overrated largely) who suddenly look like complete retards under Hughes.
I would have been fine with Hughes staying until the end of the season or even beyond if he either employed a new defensive coach or the defence stopped looking like a group of u-12 retards on crack.
And on the run of draws:
Villa (a): Good point, we did well to get it and were solid. Slightly lucky though.
Wigan (a): We were ****ing ****e and lucky to get away with a point after Rodallega tore us a new one. That said, Wigan are up and down and can be very tough when they're at home. Fair enough point.
Fulham (h): Absolutely threw away 2 points with rubbish marking and terrible concentration at the back.
Birmingham (a): How we got out of this with a point I'll never know. Rubbish game.
Burnley (h): See Fulham.
Liverpool (a): Would've snapped your hand off with this result before the game but after leading we were shocking. Zabaleta's marking for the equaliser was disgusting.
Hull (h): Ridiculously disjointed performance, unlucky though as the penalty was soft.
Fulham, Birmingham, Burnley and Hull (And Spuds) are where Hughes lost his job. Even without time to gel those are sides we should be beating, especially from winning positions. Decision may have been handled horridly (mid-game announcement wtf) and hasty (should've had the season) but I am happy it happened, and personally, I couldn't give a **** what your pasty white ass thinks. You can have Hughes in the Championship with your ****box of a club (Southgate, anyone?), I'll take my chances with a multiple Serie A winner who's renowned for his defensive organisation thanks. If that doesn't work, bring on Mourinho!
