Hull City 1-3 Aston Villa post match thread

[Pat McMahon]

We’re still a long way behind Leeds because of passion or something.

You're getting predictably dull now.

I sensed a somewhat ironic tone to that post.....

[Chris Smith]

That starting 11 is unlikely to be repeated this season so given its makeshift nature and following the uncertainty of the summer they deserve credit for the win.

Much better 2nd half. Felt we stood 5/10 yards higher up and punished their mistakes by putting them under.

Our out ball to Kodjia was a bit aimless. We need to work on threading it wide more, but to do that you need pace and territory.

Good goals 2nd half. Couldn't believe how poor the making was for Elphicks!

Dominated I felt without threatening and then 2nd half, it felt like a proper controlled away performance. We need strengthening no doubt.

I can still taste the pyro! 2 rows in front, tastes vile.

Absolutely mental scenes when McCafu scores his wonder goal. Bloody brilliant.

[Duncan Shaw]

Well I'll take another 45 dull wins like that thanks.  I'll also take any offer made for Kodj, sadly, he was beyond awful tonight and fear he is shot.

There's never a bad time to have a pop at dirty leeds.

Quite. I'm with Chris on this one. He's the acceptable face of Yorkshire.

Not till we take 45000 to every away game.

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

I thought Hutton was the only one who could hold his head up high in our relegation season and I rate him highly as a player and a character. I met him on the Villa team's Christmas visit to Acorns last year and he was a really nice guy. Although he had a presence about him that made me think I wouldn't fancy having a fight with him.

I fancied us to nick it by one goal tonight, but the manner of our win was better than I expected. I think Hull will finish in the lower third (reference for the Bowie fans there) of the championship but any win in this tricky and unpredictable division is a good win.

Very positive start to a season for a change!

Steer did well.  Good competition for keeper now to keep them all on their toes.
Our defence looks shaky.  Two reasons for this.  tommy is a pony and Hourihane and Whelan cannot defend for shit.  Whelan is slow and holds us back.  I want to see more from Conor too.  Hutton was great.  Taylor was average and I hope we sign the Bristol City lad.   Get an upgrade on Whelan before the window shuts and we have a much better midfield.  Grealish, for him, I thought had a quiet game.  Albert, if I was made a decent offer, I would consider letting go.  Kodjia, needs time, but is a selfish twat and consistently makes the wrong decision.  Elmo, a couple of moments of quality but overall, I thought he was very ordinary.

A great win, particularly first up and gives the club some real positivity.  Well done Bruce for upping the tempo second half, it was much needed.  Hull will struggle this season I think. Important that we don't feel too sorry for these teams and beat them regardless.

There's never a bad time for Christmas Jameson to have a pop at... well anybody, or anything, really.

1 down 45 to go ….

Can't ask for anymore than this. Well done all.
