City’s crazy decision- Redknapp

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp thinks Manchester City were crazy to sack Mark Hughes. City’s wealthy Arab backers dismissed the Welshman on Saturday for “poor results”. "I couldn't believe it," said Redknapp on Monday. City have only lost two EPL games all season – away to Manchester United and to Tottenham. “Two defeats is certainly not a disaster. They've got a game in hand and they were sitting just off the Champions League places,” added Redknapp. “I'm really surprised that they've taken that decision at this stage of the season. Mark's a good manager and, given time, there's no doubt they would have been very successful." City currently lie in sixth place, six points off a Champions League place.
