Yes, but they allowed us to take the game to them by being passive. If I were a Hull fan I’d be asking why they didn’t go for the third goal to finish us off.
It really depends on the team Moyes chooses to field on the day. They’ve played a lot of football and are through to the knockout stages of the Europa League.
Cant see the FA Cup being a priority, but that doesn’t mean to say he won’t pick a strong team.
Barring a cup reply, there are no midweek games after New Year’s Day for 6 weeks. Gives the coaches a lot more time to affect the change in playing style we were promised.
The worrying thing for me is how the passsing game and playing out from the back was so readily abandoned last night in favour of Max hoofing it long at every opportunity. From a coaching/management perspective consistency is key. Once you start giving out mixed message you’re in trouble.
“How to efff things up for dummies”
You sell your best two players, fail to reinvest, sack a manager with 500 plus games of experience and replace him with an absolute rookie at this level and there you have it. Job’s a winner
Talk about confusing, what happened to the passing game we were promised. Max hoofs it and they come straight back at us.
Something seriously wrong coaching wise.
