    He wasn't yesterday, he definitely was on Boxing Day but the difference between the two performances was mental, not sure I've seen anything like that in a long time.

    Wells is the only one I can think of that would score goals and not cost us a ridiculous amount of money. Of course we could have had him for free under Brownie, but never mind.

    The poor bloke played the entire first half as our only central midfielder (Meyler having gone AWOL) and he was still our best player.

    Perhaps you're right and I'm being unfair, I just took it at face value and saw that he was nowhere near as good as Saturday, it didn't occur to me that Meyler was responsible.

    Snodgrass, Elmo, Maloney and Clucas are not 'average to poor'. Even Aluko plays well when he plays on the wing.

    Elmo has been gash all season and struggles when faced with a fb who can match his pace , clucas is very average and shouldn't be playing for a top end championship club and if he plays snodgrass or Maloney ten times nine of them will be in the false number nine position Bruce loves

    Aluko's barely played at all.

    We're not doing too bad after all then. Sitting 3rd with poor to average players, We're punching well above our weight. Time for a bit of support for our over achieving players.

    Snodgrass is arguably the best player in the championship.

    He's not even the best player at Hull City.

    For me its obvious what we need to buy in the January transfer window..

    We need a leader in midfield, someone who can rally the players, knock heads together and dictate the way we play. Dawson can do most of that from defence but you really need a leader in midfield.

    Too often do we start games slowly and struggle to really get going, well if you've got the right player in midfield all that changes. We need a player who will encourage us to attack quickly, switch the play etc.. like Reading have with Norwood, or Leeds have with Mowatt, most teams have one and I think if Brucey can find the right player, it might just take one new player to be that missing piece of the jigsaw.

    he`s a long way off that at the moment, i suggest he has the potential when fully fit mentally and physically to be so, but at present he is nowhere near

    Good shout, would be a great partner for Hernandez. It'd probably free up Hooper as well.
