Wasn't sure where to put but as its Hull vs Ipswich this thread made sense. Watch the Hull goal to make it 1-1, I think it might be some of the worst defending you'll ever see at this level. Bizarre
You'd find better defensive instinct in Sunday League. And yeh you're right, its like when you can't take control of the right defender for some reason and he just jockeys thin air
the emmerson one? it's like he pressed the wrong button in FIFA
The two promotions mean they should stay up - they’re probably stronger than us overall. It’s why if we do go down this season it’s not the end of the world, as long as we come back up.
I'm with @Sick Boy , i think we take Hull soon and when we do we stay there. Their shithouse win at the CBS early in the season seems to still mean that online discourse is they are doing great and we are crap, I don't mind being underrated but its going to feel good if/when we do take them.
Works well in their system would you say?
He's decent, cost far too much and lots of times this season when I have watched their games he has been shite but people have heard of him so he must be good.
The result vs Sunderland is psychologically a nail in the coffin for Sunderland. And would have been for us too.
Agreed which was my point.
I agree good point....but you also got to come out on top of the results vs direct bottom 6 competitors. The 6 pointers. Literally they are. Which is why Sunderland win was massive. Even a draw wouldn't have really cut it after a couple of bad results vs direct relegation candidates.
It almost seems like you are actively cheering for Hull sometimes.
Their manager is on the verge of the sack now or will be after Chelsea game.
I cant stand Hull. But respect where it's due well set up know their limitations and not pretending to be anything they arnt.
You stay up if you do better across all 38 games than 3 other sides
It's just weird at this point. They've not won since the end of August and have got a very tough run of games coming up - I definitely wouldn't want to swap places/squads with them.
I think like us (and like Lampard finally did) they need to introduce more of their summer signings as the general Championshipness of their team catches up to them. Unfortunately for them, i really don't think they recruited that well outside of a couple of players. Our summer business, especially with the late addition of Gboho who really needs to be playing every week now, i think will prove to be a fair bit better.
Don't be daft, it's November nothing is a nail in the coffin at this point
