The way DF has got the team playing as a TEAM can only be admired, especially when considered within our financial constraints and SW deserves MASSIVE credit for some of the signings he’s made – Pukki and Bendy in particular. The average age of the team must be the youngest in the EFL by some margin and I’m just SOOO glad I decided to get an ST again this year.
Hull had a good spell just after half-time. NCFC getting back into it and Rick called it re a sub. TC for the last 10 minutes would be good.
Still top and I’m happy with a point. Hull gave us a good test and we move on to 2 home games!!! No damage to our GD.
Two points dropped but not a disaster. Games like that made on chances like Trybull’s, shame he missed a sitter. We obviously suffered in the conditions too, couldn’t flick the ball around so much
Hull packed the goal but also broke well and the weather didn't help either. Still top though, so on to Rotherham.
Top verses near bottom, away. Had all the makings of 3 points so what happened? Probably one of the worst result of the season with 19 shots and only 4 on target. Where was Leitner? Injured? The Stoke game at home with a bizarre own goal was probably the most disappointing result, but this comes a close 2nd. I think I was becoming too confident in this team, so a wake up call.
Calm down dear!!! Edit - I’m sure that it doesn’t help our style of play that Hull KR play at the Kcom!!!
We've got an absolute gem in Buendia. He's turning into a real bargain. Didn't we buy him with the Marley Watkins money? I tend to look at our team and wonder who the big money-maker will be during the summer (like Maddisson was) and right now we've got a handful of players putting themselves up there. Obviously I hope we keep this squad together at least thru Jan but inevitable we're going to get interest in Buendia, Pukki, Aarons, Lewis and maybe Leitner now too.
Especially when the prices we paid (if any!) are factored in by rivals. Normally 'undosclosed' but anyone who needs to know can soon find out an approximate figure. I mean, if the Murphs were deemed worth £10m+ each, Buendia must be worth that already. Let's just prtay there aren't too many 'black holes' in this season's accounts that need plugging Edit : Transfermarkt show the fee at £1.35m and his current value at £2.25m
