[Albion] Is this the first big question mark over Hughton's managerial ability?

Completely schooled by Wagner again in this first half, I thought we would set out to attack a relegation rival like Huddersfield not play two right backs on our right hand side, offering nothing going forward. Baldock and Hemed should have started up front.

It’s just DejaVu, the team selection away at Huddesfield was totally wrong last season too. Very strange that he has made the same mistake again.

Please do us all a favour and f*ck off.

Go support your first team if that’s what you really think.

Tw*t.

That’s ridiculously harsh. The OP has asked a valid question and it’s very hard to argue against the reality of what’s happening on the pitch!

I think he is being very loyal to certain players but changes should have been made as even the best players in the world get ‘rotated’ at this level.

I think it’s strange that Kayal cannot get a game at all, we cannot realistically expect Stephens, Propper and Gross to play every single game and perform at their best without a break at some point, IMHO of course.

No, he gets tested every week and has done OK wouldn't you say? We are appalling so far today but that will happen from time to time.

Huddersfield press us - who'd have thought?

Would have been a funny :fishing: thread, but I have the sneaking suspicion this ingrate means it.

No it is not a test.

We may lose today. We may lose the Spurs game.

Judge Hughton based on where we are at the end of the season. Then remember who took us up.

I took offence to the “question marks over CH ability”. If he thinks that, then he knows sweet fa.

Things don’t always go to plan, but some are too bloody quick to slag people off. Does my head in.

Baldock hasn't played for bloody ages, would've been suicidal to start him.

Schelotto and Brown both clearly not match fit which doesn't help.

Have they been injured? I recall Brown was at the start of the season, but worrying if that is the case since not a valid excuse. Seem immobile. Brown a shadow of the player of last season.

This game is more important than playing Man Utd, Liverpool or Spurs. It's a six pointer, and we're throwing it away.

So I'm curious why CH decided not to go with our strongest line up as usual, and rest players in those games against the Big Six sides which we are likely to lose anyway.

The team selection is open to some questions but it's not Hughton to blame, it's the players who have been woeful.
