Hughes tipped for United role
-
Manchester United captain Gary Neville feels Mark Hughes is the man best placed to take over from Sir Alex Ferguson - when his legendary era at the club comes to an end.
There is no suggestion that Ferguson is ready to quit in the short-term, but long-term many are looking towards potential successors.
Former Red Devils Steve Bruce, Bryan Robson and Gordon Strachan have all been mooted as possible contenders - but Neville feels Blackburn boss Hughes is the outstanding candidate.
"Playing with the likes of Bryan Robson and Steve Bruce, you always thought they'd go on to be managers," said Neville.
"Some may have thought one of them would be our next manager.
"But I certainly didn't think Sparky would be a manager, yet out of the three, he's probably now the most outstanding candidate for it.
"He really seems to have taken to management." -
I still think Arsene Wenger is the best man to replace Alex Ferguson. The former has the air of a professor.

rubbish, Arsene wenger....
I prefer people with a bit more steel like Hughes..
but I am unsure whether the expectations will kill him.
out of MUFC stables have spawn, Paul Ince, Bryan Robson, Gordon Stracan, McClaren and Mark Hughes...
