[Albion] Hughton In or Out?
- Thread starter Conkers
- Start date
Quite easy, they have no touch and absolutely shocking decision making when they do get near the goal.

He should probably stay if we go down , but definitely go if we stay up, ..Dunno what seems worse , being relegated or staying up?, I think staying up is truly a terrifying proposition! we will need Mega change or next season we will be this years Huddersfield

Sorry that’s rubbish, they’ve all shown they have attacking ability when they get the opportunity.
The dour, negative, boring tactics don’t allow them to do anything apart from defend first.

The out brigade do realise that new managers are not always better?
He didn’t **** it up in the run in post promo, the payers did
He has got to take large responsibility for that, he is the manager. Otherwise what the hell does he do?
The surrendering of the title, the gradual drip-feed of stories of seeing players out on the piss and the fact that our players seem less fit and lazier than the opposition on the pitch all leads to one conclusion.
He let's them get away with it.
Obviously.
However there is only one way we are heading, probably not this season but definitely the next.
It’s really not, I’m interested when you think these opportunities have been
Locadia is awful. Andone terrible yesterday, Murray too old, AJ clueless, Knockaert no final product, Izquierdo one truck pony, Propper loses his head in the penalty area, Bissouma couldn’t hit a barn door, yet continually tries when better options available.
It is not that we don’t attack, it’s that when we do, our movement is stagnant and our decision making badly flawed. Burnley at home dominated it but couldn’t finish, Southampton and yesterday ample possession in the other teams half, went nowhere.
Basically, it’s because we’re clueless in the final third, that’s not defensive tactics per se.
Sorry I began to ramble as I’m still hacked off [emoji2]

They are not always worse either. The trick is to find one of the better ones.

Blimey, Voted in and fully expected a decent majority for that option. Guys, the squad is light and lacks pace and dynamism. Massive overhaul this summer. No sentiment required. New tools for Chris. The rump of this squad have taken us as far as they can (if we stay up). A 1 year pivot to proven and established.

No change at the moment. I'll leave it to TB to decide CH's fate and whether he's worth a gamble for another season. I personally think he will stick with him but things will need a shake up such as having clear tactics and recruiting the right players for those tactics - there is a real disconnect.
In. We have a bottom three budget and target is 17th. Have been hit by good players being out of form or injured so no surprise to see us where we are. Changing the manager won’t give us more pace, improving the squad over the summer will.

The day after the massacre and nothing have changed for me.
OUT.
If you want to keep giving Hughton excuses for such negative game plans that is your prerogative, but we have cut this so tight this year and could well pay the price in giving Hughton the benefit of the doubt for too long.
He who dithers loses.

Was talking to my Stains supporting mate last night. He was saying that their fans were saying exactly what many here are, that the problem was they didn't have the quality of players to make a decent fist of it. Their whole squad lacked quality and there was absolutely no end product.
3 months later with the same personnel he says they look like a completely different team, have discovered pace and energy, creating plenty of chances and playing on the front foot rather than the back. Now they're talking about making 2 or 3 key signings in the summer not dumping the entire squad
Yes, they got it wrong before (Hughes) but it's demonstration how you can get quite different levels of performance from the same group of players.
I'm convinced our squad is good enough and can perform much better. The big issue for TB (and what will ultimately drive his decision) is can he (is he confident he can) improve on CH (Hasenhuttl) or will he f**k it up (Hughes)
Edit: I'm making an assumption he'll swerve the merry-go-rounders

Quite, but it’s not just pace, it’s creative flair.
And of course the quality of purchase will be dependent on the league we’re in.
