No. But they think they are. Hughes managed to take the team mid-table last year, so they chucked even more money at it and now have had a (small) bad spell. I don't think his job is safe, they could chuck money at almost any manager. I don't think the new owners want to wait, they will get rid of Hughes if they can get a bigger name. Serves him right for getting cocky about a manager who actually has talent, Sir Alex Ferguson.
Unless they recover I predict another massive spending spree in Jan.
