Again. Like yesterday when we pushed forward and Manchester City scored... none (their goal coming in the first five minutes when they were constantly attacking rather than at any point where we pushed forward) .

Over our last two games - Southampton - we were faffing about with the ball in our own half, lost possession, and conceded; man city - we were pinned back defending and got opened up and conceded. In both games, none of our attacks resulted in us getting cut open and conceded. Even late on...

Half a point :thumbsup:

We shouldn't. As mentioned in previous posts, I don't want rid of Hughton. I'm just explaining why I think the oft used counter argument "Well, who we gonna get instead? Eh?" is a bad counter argument, and ultimately a pointless one.

Tell that to Mark McGhee. Tell that to every manager who has been booed by his own fans to the point the owner feels he has no choice but to make a change. Every manager that has looked up and seen empty seats as the fans stay away to force the owners' hands.

Because we're not the people who hire the replacement. Because the person you suggest may end up being just as bad.

Neither of those names became the manager though. Instead we got someone who wasn't suggested by anyone and it turned out to work out really well. Unless we have the current best manager in football, there will always be someone better. Getting them might be the difficulty bit, and if, as an...

You're a rarity, then. Because it's usually a rhetorical device to suggest we shouldn't fire the manager. People aren't actually interested in listening to suggestions, or will find dismiss them for one reason or another (sam allardyce? Slavan Bilic? Chris Coleman? Cheeky offer for Arsene...

Yep. I don't like this approach, but I'm not calling for him to go. Ridiculous counter argument. How many people were suggesting getting Hughton in while calling for Hyypia to go? It was mostly Sherwood or Clements, wasn't it? Not knowing who you bring in instead shouldn't be a reason to not...
