Sahko for me never stopped running and was a real handful, my MOM.
Valencia very quiet first half hardly got a touch I thought he might get subbed but in the second half brilliant! should have had 2 and won the game for us.
Zarate in the hole looks dangerous looks a good buy, when fit would like to see morrisson have a go in this position its good to have competition for places.
Song looked very assured and composed when he came on, he is going to be real good! This is going to pose the question for Nobles role, will he move farther up the pitch or will the coyote play more forward?
Downing a good game but didn't pull up any trees.
Both full backs look fine demel had a couple of great runs down the right and jenkinson looked quick when he came on.
For me the coyote was a disappointment was responsible for the second goal and really didn't do much but give him time.
I have confidence in Reid and Tomkins and and for games last season they were like a wall however last night and I don't k

I agree Pale, thought Noble was our worse player on the field tonight. Song looks the better option.

Credit where its due, it was pretty damn good performance last night, we were the best team without doubt and looked exciting every time we got the ball…you have to say the new boys take a lot of credit for that, kouyate, sakkho, Valencia and Zarate all look quality buys.
I continue to have doubts about Tomkins…both Hull goals involved him, no challenge on the header and he backed off Diame for the second. I just do not see him as premiership class…but of course what do I know.
If we play like we did last night for most of our games this season we should be in good shape come May…my fear for this weekend that if JT is marking Balotelli then we will be beaten…..I will be watching.
All in all though…superb away performance…

I have confidence in Reid and Tomkins and and for games last season they were like a wall however last night and I don't know what it was they looked like they had never played alongside one another but I am sure it was just a bad night at the office.
On the whole the future looks a lot brighter and we played some decent stuff I cannot see Nolan or caroll getting in the starting 11 in the future but i'm probably wrong??!!

Don't think Kouyate can take any blame wahtsoever for Hull's second. It was a schoolboy error from Cresswell.

Agree with you re Reid/Tomkins. For all his failings I think we look more assured at the back when Collins is in the side.

And I hope you're not wrong about Carroll and Nolan.
