Agree BUT I don't think what was wrong was being too defensive. In both these games we did far more attacking than the opposition UNTIL we got hit on the break. My concern from these games was how we seemed to lack any self belief/confidence once we went 1-0 down

1. Not everyone else 2. Disagree entirely he had reached limit of his skill.

My understanding (may be wrong) is that he was a central midfielder - not necessarily deep lying but not in the No. 10 role.

Fair enough but can't see the need to keep criticising him when he has left. Why not just show respect for the great job he has done and move on. Almost every thread has snide comments about CH at the moment - see the newly started Jack Harper thread for an example.

I don't disagree at all - it's just that since he has gone too many people are using every opportunity to criticise him unfairly. I absolutely can understand criticism for the results (especially the 3 games you mention) but since he has gone (and a bit before) there are a lot of people...

Sadly missed the Palace game as otherwise I'm sure that would have been my favourite. One of the reasons I loved the Wolves game so much was the bitterness of the Wolves fans afterwards. Had a pissed up Wolves fan confront me and my sons after the game saying how we're rubbish and will never...

Against weak opposition. You mention the Nations League - did you watch the England match? If so you would have noticed Propper came on in a deep lying midfield role. Rather than say he "does" play number 10 for Holland it would be more accurate to say that Holland tried him there but moved him...

Not sure if you are saying we parked the bus in a fair few homes games (which I would disagree with) or that a fair few home games were not fun to watch (which I do agree with). Either way I did actually really enjoy the performance against Wolves away - The defending was a joy to watch. (Like I...

He has played there exactly twice for Holland. He normally plays a much deeper role - the same role he plays for us.

I bloody loved it as it was what was needed at the time! The vast majority of Albion fans who were there seemed to love it as well given the amount of singing on the concourse at the end. Would hate to play like that all season but at the time of this game - having been conceding goals for fun -...

Just getting sick of it mate. Seen so much crap said about Hughton it's unreal. Like people saying he set up against Bournemouth/Burnley/Cardiff trying for a draw - we were the most attacking team in all 3 of those games until the first goal and in all 3 games were hit on the break. We were shit...

Me too. I have no problem with posters expressing an opinion on CH when relevant but some seem to be constantly having snide digs at him all the time. There is barely a thread on here that doesn't have at least someone having an unnecessary dig at CH. For example we sign Trossard but on the...

You state he didn't pass the ball forward enough - I pointed out he passed the ball forward more than any player other than Gross. You then switch your argument to criticise his lack of goals - I point out he scored the same number as Kante from the same position and his role isn't to score...

Remind me how many goals we scored in our last 2 seasons in the championship?

The same number of goals N'Golo Kante scored in the Premier League between 2016-2018 in the same defensive midfield role. Kante not good enough for you because he didn't score enough?

The player that passed the ball forward more than any other player apart from Gross this season? That one you mean?
