Instead, I think your perspective is excellent.<BR/><BR/>And I too am not ready to blame Hughes. For the past 12 months, we have been relegation material. It's pretty much the same team that went into free-fall at the same time last year. (SWP is a replacement for Petrov; Kompany for Hamann; Benjani for Bianchi). The only real money we spent was on Jo (no impact except to our bank balance) and Robhino, who already has a better transfer-dollar-to-goal ratio than, say, Vuoso.<BR/><BR/>We need a striker (or two, depending on Boj's recovery), a LB, and a defensive midfielder who is defensive. The amount of money we have means we will get it. Maybe not Kaka or Ronaldo this time around, but money talks, we are in the league where money talks the loudest, and we have the most. So we'll buy what we need, and then Hughes needs to deliver mid-table and a couple of cup runs. If not, then he will be gone, and rightly so.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10110083667709139791noreply@blogger.com
