    Was posted on other threads how Michael Dawson brought on other players. Tom was always highly regarded by us fans and players. Current coaching team unable or incapable and I suspect the latter of developing players to their potential. Never going to happen given the delusional post match interview but City need Tom or someone like him. Personally think he would be a better manager

    I agree. He's exactly what's needed. Even an ageing version. That much was very evident tonight.

    So after 4 months in his pyjamas how long to get him match fit and mobile.

    Huddles tone ain't the answer.

    Obviously reasons for it but Tom Huddlestone was never replaced really. His vision and passing ability has been missing from our of game ever since he and others left the club.

    I can’t believe he’s without a club, he’d be great sat in front of the back 4. Actually he started as a cb....he could play there aswell

    Agreed Geo, he'd be perfect for us. Doesn't really need to be that quick and mobile for the quarter-back role but his accurate/creative distribution would release KLP/Wilks/Magennis. Sadly I doubt he'd come anywhere near us again - he really doesn't need the money that badly.

    My old granny would be a better manager and she’s blind and deaf.

    I am sad to say that she does not.

    He could do a job but would our coach Ehab pick him ahead of Smallwood, Doc or Honeyman?

    I really don't think Tom Huddlestone is the answer to our problems. Smallwood is doing perfectly well in that position for me. Unless Tom has turned into a striker or a winger who can cross?

    Wow you wouldn’t take Tom? He’s not the answer to our problems but are we too good to turn a player of his ability down
