FAAAAAK
What? The Sunderland match is the other one being televised today and you compared them.
Well not really rejected. It was more of a casual conversation in Monaco between Overmars and someone from Chelsea. The Chelsea guy supposedly said he's not leaving on loan for now. On what that depends isn't clear. If you ask me Chelsea's midfield is overcrowded already so I wouldn't be surprised if Van Ginkel gets little to no minutes. And if he wants to make a chance to go to Brazil he needs to be a starter weekly so his choice for Chelsea was kind of dumb decision anyways. The story that goes round is that the people at Vitesse pushed him towards Chelsea and neglected any talks with Ajax. They didn't even pick up the phone to formally accept and then deny a bid from our side.
Long story short, let me hope he still comes
Chelsea's centre midfield is weak. If he takes his chance well when given a run in the team, there is no reason why he can't be looking at a starting spot here.

god damnit
Wtf? There are 6 games on today. I never specifically said TV.
Shit defending
Hull have had a goal (rightly) ruled out and missed a complete sitter.
City have been awful.

Hull unlucky not to be two goals up.
very open match
city defending badly and haven't settled. hull missed an easy one on one, had an offside goal ruled out, few other decent chances.
city created two good chances. lescott and kolarov with headers that mccregor saved well.
Because it's football. Just because you spend money on great players and a great manager doesn't necessarily meant it will all gel.
Anyway, it's only the first 15 mins. Could still end up 10-0 to City.
Few nice saves from headers by MacGregor (sp?). Defense has not gelled yet. They had a clear 1 on 1 that just got pulled.

Pretty good game for something that is more dull and a lesser watch than Cardiff and Norwich matches.
Yikes. Where's the swashbuckling side that did Newcastle over?!
Yes it's been 15mins but Hull shouldn't have had those chances against a team like this. What about last week's loss?
Navas is on and that's about it when it comes to new players right? They have played together long enough to function properly. City's individual talent is far greater than Hull's.
You guys are all overreacting. City aren't playing that bad and will probably score soon.
No Kompany, different formation - obviously going to take a while.
Like I said, it's football - individual talent isn't the be all and end all. That's why we all love it, right? Anything can happen. In most other sports this isn't the case.
Smaller teams quite often have a big burst of energy in the first 20-30 minutes, create a few chances and if they don't take it they drop off. It's not uncommon.
Also - Fernandinho and Navas are all new + obviously a new coach who has never coached in the Prem before.
p.s. I hope Man City loses. 30m for Fernandinho? You're 'avin a laugh.

Cause it's EPL. Hopefully you'll get to grips with it.
They played better against Cardiff.
Fernandinho as well. Defence looks shaky as fuck.
Yeah defence seems to be poor atm
i like what i've seen of hull
they'll probably lose after squandering those early chances but they are entertaining to watch. from the all action style of mcgregor, huddlestone's passing and trying to play it out from the back a lot. that counter before playing it out for graham to get treatment was lovely.
