There's always someone who will find a dark cloud in a silver lining and actually I had the same thought as you

COYP

One more point

if we don't give Hughes a bit more respect, some other Prem club might.

I cannot believe some of the mediocrity we have favoured in Midfield.

I was surprised when we first bought him. Didn't think much of him, mainly because of the club he came from.

But, have been fairly impressed on the few occasions he's been given a game and last night cemented my view that he's our best option. As someone else wrote on here, he's a bit like Conor without a cherry on top. Please give him more games PV. He will only improve and gain more confidence.

Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled.

After watching Will Hughes last night I ended up very annoyed at the fact that he has not been given any sort of a chance by PV. I wouldn’t mind if he was kept out of the team by Zidane but he has been kept out of the team because PV was determined to turn Schlupp into a football player.

It boils my blood that we have had to endure Schlupp week after week while better players sit there on the bench.

Isn't he one of the very few public school education footballers? Went to Repton, I believe.

Are you not going to drop the Bamford Harvard anecdote?
