We need to create more with the possession we are getting.

The stats are: Stoke Hull Corners 5 1 Shots on Target 3 2 Shots off Target 3 0 Possession 52% 48%
In terms of the actions stats 70%(!) yes 70 has been in their final third!
2nd half we've got to make the pressure pay and win this!

dubai - I watched the second half of Brazil versus Hull it was all Hull. thats the auld fella talkin arse then ;D I think he was right about the first half by all accounts but Brazil were rubbish in the second of that game. Here's hoping we come out fired up for the second...

We (Cort I think) didn't win (or even attempt to win) the ball into the box. Nice knock down and a great finish. But you have to win that first ball. Poor defending initially but a top finish.
I agree on Soares, Tonge to come on before 60 minutes.
Rory's throws are always hit and miss, you just have to hope one drops.
We'll just keep pluggin' away ... That's what we do ... Something usually drops.
ah

I wonder what Hull's goals to chances ratio has been this season - they really do seem to put away every chance they get - jammy gets

We always lack creativity in midfield. Keep knocking in long to mama, keep the pressure on ... something usually drops. That's us.
Trouble is, Hull sit deep and defend with 9 behind the ball (like us), so it makes it more difficult. But I reckon we'll get something ...
ah

Hull are a decent, organised side. They attack the first ball well when defending (cf. our miserable effort to allow their No.6 to knock the ball down for the goal). They also play some neat football in tight spaces. I can see them getting another as we push on. We are just blowing out of our arse at the moment. Soares needs to grow some balls and have a dig at goal when he is in their box. He has ponced about on at least two occasions when a first time shot may have brought some reward..not impressed with him at the moment. To give him some credit his last two corners have beaten the first man but picked off by Hull's 2nd defender with no Stoke forward within 3yds.
