Hughton plays incredibly defensive football and tries to grind out 0-0s or 1-0 wins. As for Pulis being a boring manager, did you watch some of the football Palace played with him as manager?
He spent millions on strikers at Norwich, I agree I'd like to see us play two up front or at least two attacking wingers but it's not in Hughton's tactics book.
He isn't the worst manager we could have got but has pretty much only played one up front for years now and his teams have always struggled to score goals.
