I understand peoples frustration I really do, but to get a better manager in this division in our current state is unlikely. In fact I was a bit surprised and very happy that CH took the job.
We aren't the first team to be taken apart by Norwich recently and I doubt we will be the last. It doesn't make it any more palatable, especially the first half, but its been very noticeable how many hindsight experts we have linked to our fan base.
Sadly, with who we had available, the Manager had little option than to try to make us difficult to break down. Unfortunately, the opposite happened and we were taken apart for 45 minutes clearly Hughton didn't say, "stand off, be slow into the tackle and get beaten easily on edge of box". The players did that all by themselves.
As a wise man once said when asked 'What makes a good manager?' He replied 'Good players'. Last night Norwich had lots of them and we didn't.
