The pressure on Hughton intensified after disappointing performances and losses to USA and Mexico in recent games.

Despite the mounting pressure, the veteran football administrator emphasized the need for patience on Citi TV, stating, "I still believe that once he is grooming the team, once he wants to build a winsome side, let’s give him time, let’s give him space because he’s now trying to test the players."
