Can we get 10 minutes from Wilson 2nd half ? Bring a doctor for him to sort out the problem FFS

I really don't see any difference between Stockdale and Kuszczak, neither of them come for crosses and both make stupid costly mistakes.

IMO Stockdale makes more game saving saves for me but PIG is more consistent. PIG ruined his reputation in the last few months at the Albion but from what I remember he didn't make many clangers pre Christmas in his last season. It was only after schlonk-gate that he seemed unstable.

By the way, we're only not winning this owing to a preventable mistake. Apart from that, it sounds like we're looking far the better side.

I thought his team selection sounded absurd, but hats off, CH knows his onions. Why did I ever doubt him?

Going to take them in the second half. A freshened Knockaert, Murphy and Wilson to come on soon after the hour and tear them to shreds.

Well if you think their keeping skills are equal, you must appreciate that Stockdale is a much better leader and team-mate. He helps spur players on, lift them when they're down etc. He's a credit to the club.

I don't dispute that but at the end of the day he is a goal keeper and liable to make costly mistakes and he doesn't assist his defence with crosses and corners. Hopefully he will redeem himself and I will happily eat humble pie.

Don't get me wrong here, I think Hughton is great and I hope he stays with us for a very long time, but it's not his selection that's got us back into this game. The equaliser was thanks to me.
