Manchester City’s coach Mark Hughes has been sacked and according to news coming in, Roberto Mancini’s appointment was agreed upon before hand.

City’s latest match ended in a 3-4 defeat to Sunderland. This was just their second defeat in the league and yet it was a surprising decision by the owner to sack Hughes. The objective for Man City this season was to end with 70 points, but Hughes ascertained that a sixth place finish was enough to secure his job. However, the owner- Khaldoon al-Mubarak is aiming for a fourth place, Champions League finish.

Mark Hughes is furious that he wasn’t made aware of the new season targets and said that he did not see his sacking coming.
