This was one of the most infuriating things

Hughton spent our biggest ever budget on a bunch of players who, other than Redmond who is still raw, did not fit into his idea of a system. Even the players he wanted to sign, eg the Quag....what would he have done on the odd occasion we had possession, release someone with no pace of shoot from 50 yards?
