    We're starting to look like a team that expects to win again. It's like the club is coming out of a depression and the players are getting their belief back.

    Totally agree, it's all about momentum !! - getting Livermore back seems to have given every single player a massive lift

    Our biggest rivals this season are going to be Middlesbrough, Derby and Burnley. If we get two wins against Boro and Derby in the next few weeks the players will know this league is theirs for the taking.

    They certainly are confident.
    Diame said on RH that he expects to win the next 2 games
    Also confident for the cup quarter final

    Livermore is key, out of all our central midfielders he's the only one with the correct balance of technical ability and work ethic needed for the Championship.

    It's like he's the other side of Tom Huddlestone.

    That is a bit harsh on the Hudd , however Jake has been great since returning . Tom was really good on Tuesday , probably his best of 2015 , and now knows he will not be the auto choice he used to be unless he repeats the performance of Tuesday regularly .

    If we keep/can keep Hayden, it could be that line-up for the Etihad. Thudd had the chance to play further forward (even though the Radio Leicester commentators said he was standing on Dawson's toes) and it sounded like his passing was inspired. And he got MOTM.

    One game against Leicester's second team after months of very little. There just isn't room for everyone and it's better to keep a settled team than just trying to keep everyone happy.

    I seriously hope not, we're definitely going to need energy all over the pitch against Brentford and 'boro, Thudd would be a very weak link, it's just not in his game.

    Can't say that I've really noticed, I'll have to take your word for it, I don't pay much attention to Newcastle's results or performances.

    That's exactly when, historically, Hull City will show their true colours. Just when things are looking good we can rely on them to let us down & come crashing back to the ground! I really hope that I am wrong, but bitter experience tells me otherwise - but I will still be at Brentford on Tuesday to take my medicine!

    Been there, done that, however in my experience we're usually more likely to do that against a struggling team like Wimbledon or Leeds, I think this squad if players have too much quality to think that they simply have to turn up to get a result against either Brentford or the smoggies.

    Hah yeah. I'm a positive person in almost everything. I always hope we win. But with the mighty Tigers I always feel like we're a game away from humiliation and it'll be "typical bloody City".

    Not that it bothers me, I start every season with stupid expectations and I approach every single game the same too.
