Now will anyone give Bruce some credit for that win?

Well done Bruce. Your weird red face distracted the Hull players so much they defended like us in 2015/2016.

With Bruce still in charge I'm not expecting entertainment, I'll just be thankful if we win despite the negativity and boredom.  So job done I suppose. That said Hull were fucking awful and we were, for the most part, only slightly better.  The tempo is still way too slow.  RHM and Green looked far better than Kodija and Adomah in a fraction of the time.  A decent side will tear our defence a new one. Still you can only beat what's in front of you so fair enough.

Good win in the end but I'm not sure what it means because that Hull defence was fucking dire.

Taylor and Elphick were shit, Suliman and Clark wouldn't be a drop in quality as replacements but it appears the replacements are coming in soon anyway.

Whelan and Hourihane just aren't mobile enough to be a 2 which meant Jack was playing far deeper than he should be and wasn't having the impact we want.

That said, points on the board is the most important thing today.

Not sure Jack contributed a lot tonight so don’t worry we can still be good without him
But compare his touch to that of Thor. The ball just sticks to him. We will miss him so much if he goes.

I’d have loved to have been in the crowd for that Hutton goal.

Good result, average performance.
They could easily have scored a couple more. Credit to Steer, thought he played well.
Great to see McCafu score, and Elphick and Elmo
Jack still our best player, not convinced by Kodjia, but early days.
The important thing is the result, 3 points, next!

Absolutely, he keeps the ball, is available all the time, passes it to a team mate, controls it in tight situations and sees the simple forward pass.
How many other players on the pitch can do all of that?
God we will miss him.

If I knew how to do screenshots I would - apparently Hutton is the top trending UK Twitter thingy at the moment.

I would wager that that trend is tailored to Villa fans on Twitter but it's nice anyway.

And we're top 2.  All we need to do now is stay there for the next 45 games.  Simples.
