Manchester City first team coach Eddie Niedzwiecki says everyone at the club believes in what manager Mark Hughes is doing.
He told the Manchester Evening News: "As a staff we are a big team of people and we are a tight-knit group," he said. "We all believe in the same things and the manager is very open to debate, ideas and opinions but at the end of the day it is his view that counts.
"Mark Hughes is a terrific listener but he is the one that makes the major decisions that go on in the club and we respect that and are 100 per cent behind him.
"There is no good-cop-bad-cop in our set up, there has to be a balance and we know players blossom more when they have a smile on their face and they are being told how good they are. Of course they have to be told when they are not doing their job properly and they are.
"My job as a coach is to try to help players become better. I don't `make' players and any coach who says they do is talking garbage.
"We just give them our experiences and knowledge that we have gained and then it is up to them to go out and give their best to get better. It is quite simple.
"I can assure all our fans that when we lose there is no worse feeling. Away from home we look over at our travelling supporters who pay a lot of money to follow the team and we feel bad for them and we are determined to put it right.
"A player represents a City fan in the shirt as far as we are concerned. That player is lucky to play for the club and that is why it has to be 100 percent all the time, especially if you want to become the best of the best.
"It takes time for a new culture to evolve in a club. Some will like it and embrace and thrive. Some won't and will fall by the wayside.
"The way this club is and the ambitions the owners have, we know that they will not accept mediocrity, but nine months is not enough to develop everything fully.
"Jose Mourinho had world-class players in his club when he arrived at Chelsea and no disrespect to the players here, but there is not that base.
"The club has never finished higher than eighth in the top flight in the last 16-years or so, but all of a sudden the demands have become greater."
