trousers Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 The commentators I listened to were raving about us all game. Got the win we deserved. And Cork almost scored with a screamer! MotM for me was Boruc. Distribution was relatively poor but he snuffed out most of their half chances to keep a clean sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeShmoe Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Davis MOTM again (second in 3 days, playing outstandingly well just now) and big shouts to Yoshi and Chambers as well. Fair play to Yoshi, given a run of games he's been excellent, well worth keeping as the third CB in the squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Fan CaM Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Great battling game - Fonte was immense at the back and clinical in front of goal too. Lambert was sloppy with a few balls unfortunately and JRod wasted some clear chances too - we need our front line to be more clinical. Midfield is looking very, very solid indeed with Ward-Prowse and Wanyama coming off the bench. Even Guly doesn't look too bad lately with a bit of fire in his belly and unlucky not to score this evening. Top three points and now sat 8th with Utd in our sights.

Turkish Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 very, very good performance against a decent side at home. Should probably have scored a couple more but 3 points in 3 points and never really looked like conceding once we scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey88 Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Whilst i'm obviously delighted Lovren will be back for the WHU game, I think Yoshida's performances have shown that we are perhaps not quite as light at the back as it seemed earlier on. Pleased for him. He's shown why many of us thought him and Lovren would be our 1st choice partnership this year I would also say Davis was yet again our unsung hero but we seem to be saying that every week now. What a brilliant signing he has been for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird of the land Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Excellent result. Sounds like the midfield 3 played top drawer, especially Davis and Cork. That makes up for the slight disappointment of not taking all 3 points saturday. Can't believe we're within touching distance of Man U. Hopefully we can keep the momentum going in the Cup on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Tender Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 A hard ground out win. Hull had a go at us and closed us down, but our quality in midfield told. For all of our possession, Hull equalled us pretty well in the shots department. Shame that Cork didn't score. With all the extra time it seemed a very long game, but we saw it out well. Only our second back to back win in how many years? The defence was generally solid and the midfield dominant, but we lacked the cutting edge up front again. But the match will give us a confidence boost ahead of the Sunderland game and we are applying pressure on Newcastle and Man Utd. It would be great if we could finish above them both, especially last season's champions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewYorkSaint Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Wonderful team performance. We never stopped pressing. So many beautiful one-touch passing moves. With a more clinical striker, no knowing what this team could do. Davis had a terrific game. But I also liked the midfield on at the end: Wanyama, Cork, Spider. Would love to see that combo start sometime. Could easily see us finish 6th or 7th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Garrett Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Boruc - Free Chambers - Free Fonte - £1.2m Yoshi - £2m Shaw - Free Morgan - £1m Cork - £750k Lallana - Free Davis - £500k JRod - £6m Lambert £1m.

vin Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Yoshida was excellent tonight. I'm not his biggest fan but his last two performances have been top drawer.

um pahars Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 forgot to mention Steven Davis, unsung hero for us this season We were saying much the same in the pub on Saturday. A real engine in the midfield, often seen closing the keeper down. Gets on with his duties without much fanfare, but seems critical to the way we play. When we were thinking about who Wanyama would come back in place of we never considered Davis!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unionhotel Posted 11 February, 2014 Share Posted 11 February, 2014 Why was Boruc being booed every time he got the ball?

There was quite a funny moment, where he decided he was going to tie his shoelaces. So he took off his gloves and did it. He then decided to take a comical amount of time to put the gloves back on, and when he started getting booed (as it was a GK) he started jeering and jestering back at the Hull fans! He's a character... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
