Neither have won anything in England (OK Sven didn't get much of a chance but whether or not he would have broken us into the Big 4 we'd never know).
Id rather have Hughes than someone coming into the Premiership for the first time.

If you followed that logic though you get a virtually sealed group of 'top' managers. Hughes has done a good job at Blackburn, where winning the title isn't really possible, who's to say he won't do a good job somewhere else?
Besides, if having won stuff in the past was necessarily a good guide someone would give Graeme Souness a job.

I worry Sven might not be able to meet his mortgage.
Why would Hughes talk to Citeh - other than to gee up Chelsea. Hughes's next move has to be bigger than that, surely.

Presumably because he might not get the Chelsea job, and Man City have lots of money because they're owned by an evil murdering scumbag cunt billionaire.

Its sunny somewhere.
Winning the little league doesn't count.
All that aside, the play of ManC in the 1st half of the season was fantastic to watch.

Aye but the other teams soon sussed it. In Sven's defence it was still a very thin squad and long term injuries to Boijonov and Castillo cut down on the options available to him.
Sven's been appointed as Mexico manager. He says it's a "Big challenge to get them to the world cup"

I vaguely recall hearing something about them going into the South America stages rather than CONCACEF. If so they should still do it but CONCACEF is a breeze for them and the US.
He did the press conference in Spanish.
he's just there for the ladies in tight jeans though.
Says a lot that he chose City rather than Chelsea.

BBC reckon Chelsea were never that interested.
He probably chose what he saw was the lesser of two twats anyway.
A lot of Chelsea fans were interested, not that that counts for a lot.
And slimy Kenyon was backing him. Possibly it was that that put him off.

It says Abramovich didn't want him. Poisoned Chalice, surely? Sven wasn't that bad, just didn't have strength in depth.
I wasn't criticising Sven - I thought he did well last year. I meant 'poisoned chalice' in the sense that both clubs are owned by unpredictable dickheads
