What did everyone think of Meyler? Best performance in a long time for me. A little more reassuring with Elmo gone.
Could be, but wasn't on for long enough to pay attention to that. Would be useful if he would form a good partnership with Robbo like Clucas does.
Is it a coincidence that 2 of our best players from the opening weeks of the season - The Jak and Livermore - returning to where they played best has seen us keep the first clean sheet in yonks? No, no it isn't. Actually was our last clean sheet against these?
Bit shaky to start with, obviously playing out of position but can't fault his effort. Couple of poor passes, but nothing out of the ordinary for him.
Silva has another game to effectively play around with the team if he wants to for the league cup semi if the PL is the focus.
Did win come at a cost? Michael Dawson Michael Dawson was forced off with a shoulder injury after landing awkwardly Hull were forced to name a makeshift backline, with centre-backs Harry Maguire and Curtis Davies missing through injury and right-back Ahmed Elmohamady on Africa Cup of Nations duty. Midfielders Jake Livermore and David Meyler were drafted in to the defence, but come the final whistle Silva had three midfielders in his back line with Tom Huddlestone covering for the second-half loss of captain Michael Dawson. Hull, therefore, head into Tuesday night's EFL Cup semi-final first leg at Manchester United with question marks over each of their senior central defenders. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38474717
Have you notice they nearly all have a similar voice, like grandads used to sound when they were sucking on a Weather's original whilst smoking a pipe? That idiot who was on first sounded like a younger version of Geoff.
If you could prove that Jak would have made no mistakes at all in the last four months then you might have a point. You don't have a point. That said, glad to see Jak do so well today. He deserves a run in the team.
silva 'It's not easy because of the situation, if you look with attention, we changed a lot of things in our positioning and or organisation we did a lot of things different. But two trainings is not enoiugh, we need more time. We work a lot so far to pass on our ideas on the players" 'Its important for me that our fans believe in our team because we need help and we need the fans there supporting the team to change the situuation. I hope in the next game against Bournemouth at home, that they are here"
Not in any way a vote but sounded from twitter as if clucas and Robertson were very effective down the left and found plenty of space? Robertson with some good balls into the box. In in sounded a much better display with a lot more energy and purpose.
Pleased for Tom if that was the case (imperious is term that comes to mind with some of his play) Think he will shine with Silva.
