We're a good team when we play to our strengths- top half team I'd suggest. Just need to do it consistently and pick the right team.

Can't help but feel that there was a point to be won in that game for us, given how we finished.
We have players who can create real problems for the opposition - but not when they are sitting on the bench for three quarters of the game. Andone needs to start from here on in. Then we might have a chance of controlling games rather than heroically chasing them in the last 15 minutes but just falling short. Disappointed when I saw the team sheet, but not surprised sadly. Andone probably feels the same.

We'll never know if that is the case, Hughton set up how he thought we could best get a result, when it didn't work, he changed it.

Why doesn't Gyökeres get some minutes? I think he would do better than your manager seems to think.
He was the one who impressed the most for Sweden last week, despite being the youngest player in the squad.
Great effort , unlucky in the end , unexpected performance much more on the front foot than expected
In the end it has to be said ...... so much better once Andone & Knocky came on ... Murray & March were disappointing with Murray just not the same threat in the 4-3-3 formation
Overall proud of the performance just having to question the team selection as it didnt have a cutting edge & I dont see this system suiting Murray at all

Hang on you'll have Hughton knows best brigade on. Been obvious for a long time i'm afraid. Pace upfront is the way to go.

Yep. Andone has to start every game, he scares defenders, never stops running and has an eye for goal.

I enjoyed that.
The difference between that performance compared to our other away game this season in Manchester is huge.
now lets go on an d smash the other Albion and pick up some points against Fulham/Watford/Burnley.

I know this ain't gonna happen, but I would like to see the team that finished today start against West Bromwich.
Just to see what happens.

He changed it to what everyone wanted and again the change showed us to be a far better attacking force. Ho hum....

Despite the result, I am really proud of the team especially on that second half performance!

I thought Bong was excellent today - his forward play has improved massively and he's working well with Locadia.

What would you expect Bong to do? Not put any pressure on? Pogba dived and the ref gave a very soft penalty
