In fact, let's embrace the Welshness; let's quit and go into the EPL. Since we all like Welshness.
Hughes is one of if not the most overrated Prem managers going.
Appointed Welsh manager solely down to playing reputation. Sandwiched one good year living off the Italy win with two of the worst years Wales ever had. Russian play off? Away game, Hartson unsurprisingly knackered, went off with 5 minutes left. Put Earnie on, fresh quick legs maybe hope for an away goal? Nah. Put Nathan Blake on instead. At home, needing to win, stick to rigid 4-5-1. Leave the one striker we had scoring goals on the bench. And then play him wide, almost as a wing back...
Then walks out for Blackburn. Oh, but didn't leave straight away. No, Hughes wanted to make sure he managed the big game vs England.
Blackburn? Well supported with money there. Again, rigid 4-5-1 formation.
Man City? Needs a strong manager with proven success; players otherwise would rightly ask what he's ever done as a manager.
Fulham? Inherited a strongish squad, mid table side. Did nothing there to make you go "Yeah, he's improved it from the Hodgson era".
Let's just go with someone better, fresher ideas, maybe even a record of success as a manager.
