& that’s how easy it is to play against Russ ball. 
 

We look completely disjointed both in and out of possession.

If it's that easy, why did 25 teams not figure out until Bristol City?

We've created hardly anything so far and hull are very good defensively, long way to go but the signs aren't good 🙏

Totally incomprehensible midfield for this one.

He's having real issues balancing and rotating the squad imo. Manning and rothwell should not be starting. And if rothwell is going to start he has to drop stu. Can't be unbalancing the side this much. Its inexcusable.

Stephens should blatantly be starting over manning.

I take it that it's Manning who is getting done just the way you like your breakfast kipper at left back?

Yeah, but did you see his laughable "recovery" slide/lunge after the player was already behind him and taking on the next defender 🤣. Like a fifa player slammed the slide tackle button once the play had already passed by.

A spin and shot there. They had a fair bit of space again. Just as well he couldn;t take it on the foot it arrived to him on.

Hull have enough pace, and our set up is disjointed enough that we're not out of the blocks here.

Without watching tonight's game, that sounds exactly like Bristol City last week. Apparently we had three midfielders playing, but it looked like none.

It’s similar but frankly worse so far. Need to change it up.

Almost conceded again with rothwell being on a totally different wavelength to bazunu. Should not be starting, need an anchor. And Alcaraz was perfectly suited to play the same role and we could have signed a CM cover instead... or even a better left back ffs.

Alcaraz was poor all season and never looked suited anywhere in this team. We’ve got plenty of CM talent, we just need to find the right combination.

I said at the start if the season that Hull would be there or there abouts come the end of the season. They have lost  more games than I thought they would to be honest. Look pretty good so far though. We are second best everywhere right now. We need everyone to step it up a notch. Got to be careful not to go too gung ho
