Statistics ! We all know they can be used to back up any argument you wish to make. Just for fun.

But I do agree that Chris Hughton is doing an OK job; and the important thing is I think that with the January signings of Knockaert, Krovinovic, and Garner he will do a better job in the second half of the season than he did in the first half.

Remain to be convinced about the signing of Glen Murray. He looked well off the pace when he came on against Coventry and didn't contribute anything meaningful.

It seems obvious that Hughton doesn't rate Taylor. It will be interesting to see who he selects if Grabban becomes unavailable between now and the end of the season.

I feel sorry for Taylor, he's our leading scorer with 4 goal s. Murray played 58 minutes for a Watford in the first game of the season, made a short guest appearance from the bench [according to R.N] that my research didn't pick up and then never figured in another match day squad after October.
I can only think that he's more of a talker/good egg/communicator in training than Grabban is, because I can only see value from him on the training ground.
