Hughton 'went for it' against Chelsea in 2012 and, despite going a goal up after ten minutes, we then shipped three goals in fifteen minutes and eventually lost 4-1.
There's a reason Chelsea are 2nd - it's very difficult to go for it without leaving yourself exposed at the back. They absolutely hammered us in the second half yesterday - they pressed and pressed but every player did their bit in keeping Chelsea away. We went for it as much as we could without conceding a goal that would have officially ended our season. A draw at least gives us a chance- a very slim one but a chance nonetheless.
