After yesterday's performance, does anybody come back into the team next week or do we keep the same team that beat Charlton and Fulham (barring injury)? Some good performances yesterday but it would seem harsh to drop anybody after the last 3-4 games.
Using my hairy crystal ball, I can guarantee... When we are 1 nil up with 80 minutes gone Abel's getting hooked for Hudd. You read it here first.
For me you have to play strikers when their confidence is up and they're scoring goals. Unusually for Hull City that now applies to two of our strikers so Bruce has to keep both happy and get the best use out of them....Not an easy one. I guess it has to be Henandez starting and ChubAkka coming off the bench later on.
I'd play exactly the same team that spanked 'em at the KC ............. this football management's piss easy
Hernandez has to start and he will. I hope Akpom doesn't spit his dummy over it, although perhaps it might be slightly more understandable this time. We could start them both and move Diame into centre mid, maybe at the expense of Hayden?
Revert to the team that beat Fulham. Everyone deserves to keep the shirt at the moment. SB might be tempted to bring in Dawson but that would be harsh on either Harry who has come on in leaps and bounds in recent games or Davies who had his best game for ages against Fulham. After his hat-trick SB might be tempted to bring in Akpom - maybe for Diame?
Although it would be harsh on Maguire, I think if Bruce thinks Dawson is fully back on it, he has to play, and it has to be ahead of Maguire because Davies has ben even better than Maguire recently and he and Daws would complement each other better. I like Maguire but I still think he has more mistakes in him. That brilliant save Macgregor made at end of Fulham game was because Maguire got too excited and gave away a silly free kick, This is our toughest game of the season so far on paper, and a draw would be a very decent result. I think Dawson has to play but agree its a v tough call.
3 at the back would help us accommodate Diame, Abel & chuba! I doubt he'd do that away? But I'd like it.
He'll bring Dawson back and say that Maguire has played a lot of football recently so deserves / needs a rest! It's harsh, but to be fair, he has to bring Dawson back in.
Same team that played in the last few league games. Hayden has been patient and won his place back in the side and rightly so, there's no point dropping him. Dawson alongside Maguire, if any centre half is going to drop out it'll be Davies, if only because Bruce doesn't really seem to like him that much.
McGregor Odubajo Dawson Davies Robertson Snodgrass Hayden Livermore Clucas Diame Hernandez maybe we will sign someone/ sell someone tomorrow so it could be all change but we should stay with proven winning team - Meyler gives the ball away too much to be considered first choice
