    [Albion] For the Hughton out brigade

    I think the Bournemouth and Cardiff results were my personal tipping point, I just hope the Newcastle game doesn't prove to be yours.

    Don't get me wrong, I've no problem with the players, they are working their arses off.

    It's like getting Gordon Ramsey to knock you up some cheese on toast, nice, but nothing a dinner lady couldn't do. And not something you want to eat every meal.

    A well drilled league 2 team could do what we are at the moment.

    I admire your loyalty to Chris Hughton, but you must see that he is out of his depth now, surely? 11 hours without a Premier League goal, 6 shots on target in 6 matches. I had to travel home with Spurs fans last night and they were embarrassed for us. Chris is a lovely, honest and honourable...

    I'll take your word for it, can't bring myself to watch again. Knowing he can do it just winds me up more, on the frequent occasions when he misplaces an easy one.

    You've seen us play this season, or is this what you call blind faith. Just because we've mugged a few teams this season, it doesn't hide the fact that we've been awful. Dunk and Duffy's last ditch defending can only paper over some of the cracks.

    Correct, and they have Joao Moutinho, who loves receiving the ball under pressure, knowing exactly what he is going to do with it without panicking. Oh for a player like that.

    He played under Mourinho, the archetypal pragmatist. Wolves pretend to be expansive, but really they set traps and catch you out with lightning quick counter attacks, very Jose Mourinho. This is what we should be doing, but don't have the pace going forwards.

    I want to believe that Defenders who move into management are naturally inclined to develop defensive teams. But Klopp and Poch were defenders so it's not as simple as that. Maybe they just prefer the beautiful game, rather than Dyche and Hughtons favoured version.
