With 1 recognised striker left (if Long does go) Saturday would be a great opportunity to play 4-2-3-1. Ince, Brady and Snodgers behind Jelly with Livermore and Thudd sitting deeper.
West Bromwich fans I know reckon there was a PL survival payment pending for last season. It seems to be how we structured most of the deals last season.
Do you even read any of the articles posted about us? They expressly stated that most of the add ons were paid off after the end of last season after we avoided relegation.
System won't suddenly change to one we've not been using because one forward is gone. It'll just mean Jelavic and Ince starting again saturday, with Aluko on the bench. Once Sagbo's ban is done we still have 4 forwards for the 352.
Anyways it seems this is happening. I hope he lives up to his transfer fee (can't see it) and hope you have a good season. I have always liked Hull.
The thing i'm worried about is the club panicking. Selling because it seems too good to turn down, panic buying in time for the new season and wasting 10 of the 12 million on someone like Deeney. Gutted.
He will only be sold to improve the squad, as selling for a few million profit makes no sense at all - it's chicken-feed in the scope of our coming season. Bye bye Long, hello a striker who can take his chances. Sagbo also for a bigger role. I am not so sure the Remy idea is that daft, if it were to be possible he would be one hell of a signing - he tore us a new one last season. Long + Quinn + Elmo = BIG BUCKS. Or Remy + ?????? ---- this is what SB does.
And HCAFC have confirmed he's going , no thought not . Apparently, the same source that said Brucey was gonna Saints has started this rumour and Brucey said yesterday there was never anything in it (him gonna Saints) . Just have to wait and see .
As always in football you're only one twisted knee away from missing the whole season with a ACL rupture. We have cover. We can sign another. What ever will be, will be. #UTT.
Jelavic is the goalscorer so as long as we can keep Aluko fit then he is more than capable of weighing in with as many goals as long. Then we've got ince who can play that role aswell so maybe long wont be missed aslong as we buy a goalscorer to keep jelavic on his toes.
I bet some poor sod is now regretting getting LONG printed on their back of their smart new Hull City home kit.
if we sign troy deeney, i'll crush my pass up and smoke it and what will be will be.. i really don't want to smoke my pass. f** sake, was all excited for saturday, now i just know we'll bring in kin some s**te if we get £10m that's a decent sum for a decent and probably better replacement
