Thought Hull did really well to combat the physical long ball, naive simulation (Mills) approach of Charlton today.
Two evenly matched teams who showed plenty of strength and fight making up for what they lacked in quality and tactically sterile management. Both should be there or thereabouts in the shake up for the play offs though

We took the easy option of going long too many times today. I can understand why Holland is playing at the moment, and he was probably one of our better players today, but I think Semedo often helps us to play more through the midfield because he picks the ball up from defenders and then turns and looks to play it on the floor, or spread it wide.
Sam getting injured today didn't help today as I think he could have done some damage down their left.
As a team we are physically relative midgets in this division and our strength is our superior footballing ability, even Iwelumo is better on the deck than in the air so why, oh why don't we play to feet?
