Albion boss backs error-prone Dunk - The Argus Hughton: “As regards to Lewis, he has been excellent for us. Making any mistakes is part and parcel of the game. “Sometimes when you’re a keeper or a defender, mistakes like that will happen because of the position you play.” Soft. But then again...

Last season, totally agree. As I've said in my previous post. He's been very good in previous seasons, including much of the first half of this current one. Ipswich 1 Point (Slip directly leading to goal) QPR 2 Points (Sending off 85+ mins indirectly leading to Austin's second goal) Burnley 2...

Can TB afford the risk? From my stat's, which I'm happy to be challenged on (Sussex2K & JohnScrotes), Dunk has cost us 5-7 points so far (let's call it 5 for balance). This has cost us 2nd place at the current stage of the season. If we reach the end of the season 5 points off an auto-spot...

Lewis Dunk under pressure after error dumps Brighton and Hove Albion out of FA Cup - The Argus LEWIS DUNK’S place is under threat after another gaffe dumped Albion out of the FA Cup. The crazy mistake was the third time the highly-rated young centre-half has cost Albion in the last six games...

This is very true. He can be a great footballer (and usually is), but ruins it with the above. Hopefully this will clear up with time. Although with his experience and age, you'd have thought he'd have this sorted.

Fair points, good first post. However I've got to disagree. I think Dunk's been a total liability over the past few weeks and has directly lost us points (5-7 points and a cup replay is the current count). Regarding the post-match interview with JC, CH didn't directly name and shame Dunk...

Agreed. Evidenced by his reaction to the horrible foul (and sending off) against QPR recently.

Was on a bit of a fishing trip but didn't catch many bites with El-Abd! I've got a Bristol City STH and apparently he was pretty woeful over there to start with, then never got picked. Then out for loan with Swindon (I think). Shame tbh.

Greer's only major mistake was giving away a penalty against Derby. Other than that, nothing more/less than normal.

Brian Owen briefly mentions it here (The Argus).

To be clear (and fair), he didn't slam Dunk or name him. JC said (something along the lines of) "there have been quite a few defensive errors in recent games, is that a concern?". Hughton: "Yes it is a concern" ... "individual errors are costing us". Definitely not, if you heard the...

Much more than a bit of a dip, for Hughton to single him out like that. He's majorly contributed in BHA losing 5-7 points plus a potentially lucrative cup-replay (and possibly 4th round game). Dunk's errors are costing BHA in all senses.

Likely to get shot down, but what about a punt for El-Abd?

He's surely only in the squad each week as there's no better option. He's been great in previous seasons but is having a seriously bad patch. Hughton must be tearing his hair out having no alternative.
