Hull Match Thread

Manager saying sinclair doesn't even train with the first team. Why not?? When I look at what gray or Austin contribute when we are chasing a game and their lack of mobility and pace then surely using a young quick lad off the bench for 10 mins is worth a crack. You can see our subs and the timings of them a mile away!!

Gray hasn't done enough for me.
Wasted money for me

The love affair with austin and the management needs to stop now. Its clear he's not been fit this season yet he is constantly picked in the matchday squad. We are constantly told that the sports science team are telling the manager that so and so player can only play 60 mins or that they have to drop out to keep them fresh.

Austin hasn't been fit since last season. He's overweight and sluggish. Gray should be ashamed of himself. Since minute one he has looked disinterested, lazy and moaning to anyone willing to notice. Apart from a couple of great finishes he has been a major disappointment. 70k a week at Watford??? Stealing a living!!

It tells us all how much money there is in football and how average players can become millionaires in a few short years.

It's a shame Wells never came back in Jan. At least he gave a s*** and actually ran around.

I don't completely disagree but options are very limited especially with Dykes injured and an uninterested Gray, we clearly should have addressed this in the window but haven't so it is what it is!

Well if he is uninterested tell him to f.o.
I'd rather promote a couple of lads from the under 23s who are our own players and would give their all rather than pay to watch that overpaid lazy arrogant pr1ck!

Is young Armstrong still at the club?
Could we not bring him in for the last 10 mins when tiredness kicks in?

BRING HIM ON !!!

It seems we scrapped the idea of promoting kids. Half of the team are well in their thirties and apart from uncle, not contributing much.

Defence have so much possession but can't link with midfield who in turn give next to no service to attack . We are weak and messy in midfield we don't win enough 2nd balls . We look lackluster , disjointed and tired. Charlie is embarrassing he's like a carthorse , Moaning , slow and drops too deep . We need to find some intensity and move the ball faster . Keep hitting willock , Albert needs to be told to beat his man and cross , not to keep knocking it back and playing safe. Chair needs to be direct and one out of the back 3 get u and have a go

Hull manager Shota Arveladze gave an encouraging update on Matt Ingram after the former QPR goalkeeper was stretched off midway through the second half.

Ingram landed heavily after a far-post collision with Albert Adomah.

Play was halted for around 12 minutes while Ingram received attention from the medical staff of both clubs.

He was taken to hospital but initial reports on his condition allayed fears he had suffered a serious injury.

“The most important thing is that he was talking with the doctors and he feels well,” Arveladze said.

“He went straightaway to the hospital and now we know that he is conscious and he is safe.

“The neurology will take time, the doctors will see him and I believe he will be treated to make sure everything is OK.”

We should have addressed this in the window but as you say, is what it is.

However we can make do alot better with what we have by playing players in positions that are their strengths, IE Albert as a winger, not a defender. Our strikers are poachers, they need to ball in the penalty box not being tippy tapped at the back trying to walk the ball up the pitch!
