The thing that City had in common then with the "great teams" was a top manager who could get the best out of players. That said, like Ferguson at United, it took him a couple of years to impose himself on the club. I just hope City have got the patience to allow Hughes the same opportunity and to give credit to the Arabs they can take a long-term view on things. Only time will tell.
