Take photos of all around you he was told, you’ll know exactly where you are on the field and can react long before the opposition do. Brilliant
I watched MOTD and Harry Kane,s quick look to see where Son was and then heading the ball into his path was a good example of that. That was one of Wilk's big failings, he just put his head down and didn't see anything around him, which might be a better option than him taking a shot.
That was my only problem with Meyler technically pretty good good shot but never looked to the sides .
I thought Shota's statement about his 'fitness' and 'energy' spoke volumes. We've been waiting all season for him to get his 'energy' back, at least in comparison to last season.
Maybe that was because David Meyler was running his cock off trying to both create things, score goals and remove the ball from the opposition, all at the same time? He was like that was Dave Meyler.
i trust most have read the hdm article about grant mccann offering congratulations on us staying up. it's a weird article. i'll add a link here in case anyone wants to read it. https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/spo...ews/grant-mccanns-classy-message-hull-6933533 so let's take a look: "Former Hull City boss Grant McCann showed his class with a message for the Tigers after securing their Championship status. A 1-0 win against promotion chasing Middlesbrough ensured City cannot be caught by the sides currently in the bottom three." except barnsley, who coukd catch us. "Keane Lewis-Potter's strike gave Hull their first win in a staggering 23 games to dent Boro's promotion bid. Shota Arveladze's side are 15 points clear of Barnsley, and can now look forward to spending a second campaign in the second tier." "first win in a staggering 23 games"? let's call it 3. 3 since we won at coventry.
Do you think it means how long we've won at 'boro? Although i'm not sure how many that was to be honest.
First league away win at Boro in 23 attempts. Though we dumped them out of a cup there a number of years ago. Apologies in advance if I can't remember exactly what year, or who played - did Daws put in a free kick that game? Nope, can't remember the attendence either so it must be bollocks. I'm sure somebody will be along soon having googled it to point-score and prove he's the man...
i wondered that myself. in league games, it's about 14 going back to 1986, but we won there in a cup game in 2014.
it's not 23. we won there in 1986, which is 36 years ago, but we didn't play them between 1991 and 2007, so that's about 16 years off the 36, and there have been other gaps. it's about 14. former peterborough player mclean and a proschwitz rarity gave us a 2-0 win there in the fa cup in january 2014. https://www.soccerbase.com/teams/head_to_head.sd?team_id=1310&team2_id=1697
He did mean 23 league games at Boro, I’ve seen that stat repeated several times over the past couple of days, but as you say, it’s not correct.
Dunno where they've got the 23 from then. It's a daft stat anyway cos we've won our fair share at ours and in the cup. Wondered if it could be 23 away league games or summat.
Since our last win there in 1986, our league record at Boro (ahead of Saturday) actually reads W/0 D/2 L/10.
