Hughton drenched in ice water?

Not sure, but this bit raises a question: 'A player whose exclusion had reduced him to tears in meetings with Pearson ended up rejecting a four-year contract to stay at the King Power Stadium, with Knockaert instead moving to Standard Liège under the Bosman ruling.'

Why would a player who wasn't an integral part of the Leicester squad be offered a four-year contract? Even on gash money, they'd surely only commit to two or three if they didn't rate him?

Brighton / Hove actually

It's all on his seagull player interview. Below is a screen grab of him running away after being got.

Splashed, rather than drenched. If you're thinking Superbowl, you're way out.

Still has a fantastic turn of speed, can he play left back?

I'll tell you what, google "Brighton 2 Tottenham 1" from when we played them in the league at the Goldstone in Apr 83. A couple of terrific rampaging Hughton runs for Spurs in that - and some X-rated tackling from Chris Ramsey and Tony Galvin that is hard to believe these days! Great stuff.
