Team Unity the Challenge for Hughes, Manchester City

The ability to get a team to gel together is the key component of a successful coach or manager - getting the players to understand and accept their roles, and to buy into the fact that they are a part of something bigger than themselves.

This is the challenge that Mark Hughes has in front of him as he looks to mold Manchester City into a cohesive unit, and Alex Dimond writes, will be the difference in City competing for a title this season.

In truth, of greater importance to City’s immediate prospects than addressing the defensive issues is manager Mark Hughes’ ability to get his illustrious squad to gel quickly as a unit.

After all, as Redknapp might agree, 10 of the last 10 Premier League champions have boasted incredible team spirit.

Improving team unity is an undertaking that shouldn’t be taken lightly. As much as it might annoy the City hierarchy, it is not something that can be bought.
