With a few exceptions, the better the player the crappier the manager. Karel Fraye must have been the Belgian Messi....2

I've always thought Mark Hughes is a no-mark manager.
I think he's been seen as a manager cos of his playing career, and because he started at Wales. He NEARLY got them to a tournament and that was enough to make him seem like a top manager. He did ok with Blackburn (spent a fair bit), spent a huge amount at City and finished midtable, did bugger all at Fulham and left within a year, spent a ton at QPR and helped to get them relegated. And all the time he blames everybody else (quite angrily) for his problems.
He plays the part pretty well. Wears suits, does the interviews and talks the talk. But his teams lack any kind of identity, at least until he got to Stoke and I started to change my mind. This season, however, he might well get found out.

Did a great job at Ranger and took the blame at Liverpool when it was King Kenny who took over the best team in Europe and ruined it.
But you can't blame the King!

I think he's an awful manager. Good at player recruitment, but according to those who have played under him he doesn't coach them at all. He doesn't work on defending. Has a weird obsession with handshakes. Hoping he gets found out at Stoke this year.JiMMy 85 said:I've always thought Mark Hughes is a no-mark manager.

Totally agree; never understood the fuss that surrounds his dire mediocrity. So dull as well! Can you imagine how excruciating his team talk must be!!JiMMy 85 said:I've always thought Mark Hughes is a no-mark manager.

Oh! You wanted crap managers. I thought it was RAP managers.0 -
Has to be Maradona. He even managed Argentina when they lost 6-1 to Bolivia.Macronate said:Maradona.

So you have possibly the world's greatest ever footballer managing his country's worst ever defeat.
Thread close imho.0
