Not quite the tactical masterclass from Hull, but who cares when it works lmao. Theyre just very physical, you could say they scored from set pieces but you dont get those set pieces by sitting back. Hull just seemed to want it more. Especially that first half there was very poor defending from Man United. Luke Shaw in 2026 is mental, hes not good enough at all. The back 4 being completed by Heaven who sure has potential, but right now nowhere close to Premier League quality, Maguire, and Mazraoui, who famously isnt the best on the defensive side of things. With that defense you NEED a physical defensive mid to support the defense but instead they have Andrey Santos and Tielemans, that doesn’t help. Offensively they haven’t brought enough either, chances here and there but pumping crosses with Cunha as striker is idiotic. I am not sure why Zirkzee didn’t play, i think a player like him would be great against this Hull. More physical and also good in tighter spaces which is useful with their back 5. Can also just keep the ball with his back to the goal to pass to Cunha/Mbeumo. Thats what i would do at least, especially after seeing how poor it was in the first half. Also the first time Hull beat Man United, in their 12th fixture. Really an incredible result for Hull, but horrid from Man United. Man of the match gotta go to either Semi Ajayi or Nobel Mendy. Not only did they both get a goal but also were incredible in defense, but ill give it to Mendy.
