What was Bournemouth's record prior to our game? We look more mentally gone than any other side in the division right now, that will continue to be true if we can't beat Cardiff at home.

I’m really surprised people think 95% chance staying up if we draw. A draw is another poor result for us, cementing a really woeful run of form - our best chance of a win left this season would’ve gone up in smoke. Cardiff will absolutely believe they can get wins against on the beach Fulham...

Ish. We didn't exactly go balls to the wall, as evidenced by our substitutions, STILL refusing to play two up top at home against a bang average side. You said Chris has tried 433 to be more attacking and it hasn't really worked, implying by your comment that is the way we could attack, and...

I think it would only happen if we had an exciting young prospect manager lined up, and even then yes he would probably give Hughton until at least around November/December. If we're struggling again next season the pressure might get too much.

For the first 20 minutes. Also bit daft to suggest there is only ONE way to go more attacking. Surely Chris isn't that insanely limited...?

You realise that getting paid more money doesn't suddenly make you an invincible superhuman, right? How much they are paid makes **** all difference as to whether they're human or not. Footballers are human beings, with a finite amount of energy at any one time. Also, they're up against other...

I don't think a draw is as good as 95% stay up, I'd say about 60%. Cardiff can absolutely beat Fulham and Palace, both on the beach for different reasons. Also, if Man Utd final position is decided by final day and Cardiff go all out for a battling draw they could sneak it. We've got to win...

Hughton is a superb manager for certain games, and certain levels of club. I'm not sure he works for a side who want to do more than tread water at the arse end of the Prem. I think we all knew this day would come at some point, however I thought it would be another 3-4 years beforehand. I...

I guess I wouldn't see Locadia as part of my best Albion 11 and therefore wouldn't be a comparison, but I appreciate that Hughton seems to disagree with me. Very revisionist on Dunk, based on current situation.. He's been superb for a number of seasons now. Come on, let's not throw the baby out...

Hard to say, as we've been poor since the Everton 1-0, but on "average" performances over the past 2 seasons, I'd take Ryan, Duffy, Dunk, Bernardo over their equivalents immediately, then there would be a few that were a toss up. Would take Callum Wilson without a second's thought, probably...

I think taking the draw, and staying up JUST by saying, eking out 1/2 more draws against Newcastle/Wolves, really doesn't bode well for next season. It may vindicate Hughton's horrendously negative approach, giving no reason to change it for next season. I'd rather see us take a few (calculated...

No. A point still leaves things nervy, as this game is easily our best chance left this season to get a win. If we are going to stay up, we have to have some belief that we are more than good enough to beat ****ing Cardiff at home. If Hughton sets up in any other way than to attack, then I fear...
