#SaintsFC can today confirm it has parted company with First Team Manager Mark Hughes.Full statement: pic.twitter.com/EisJf8c2gb— Southampton FC (@SouthamptonFC) December 3, 2018Quique Sanchez Flores,Paulo Sousa and Ralph Hasenhuttl are among the bookmakers favourites to replace Hughes on a permanent basis.Hughes, who played for the club in the late 1990s, won just five of his 26 games in charge of Southampton.While a 2-2 draw against Manchester United doesn’t seem like the biggest setback, the Saintswere leading that game 2-0 and that is symptomatic of some of their problems this season.During Hughes’ tenure they dropped 20 points from winning positions, while the 12 goals scored in 14 games this term has also been an obvious hindrance.
