One huge difference yesterday to most games under Hughton

was that when we didn't have the ball we pressed their back four much higher up the pitch, rather than simply everyone retreating to the halfway line.

In that respect, it was very similar to those two wins at the end of last season.

Makes a huge difference when we play 10-20 yards further forward. We actually had three or four players in their half when they had the ball.

Let's hope this is an epiphany.
