Gave the ball away far too often particularly Kim,Taylor and Rudy.

For their first goal one of our players - not sure who 'til I see the highlights but it was from leftback position - passed the ball to Gunnarsson (I think) who was running away from the ball with his back to it so didn't see it! It went straight to a Hull player. Then ball was given away by Kim who had a simple pass to McNaughton but gave it straight to another Hull player - 1 - 0!!
Back 4 not great today - missing Connolly & Barnett (wonder if Malky will try and get him for next season) badly - not to mention Hudson.

Agree, the Hull first goal was a soft one, Kim at fault for that. I like Kim, & im sure he will develop a lot better next season.

It was Nugent trying to pass to Mutch who had his back to him but Kim still should have cleared the ball but gave it away so so cheaply. Shit happens I suppose.

One good thing out of the game today is that Taylor is suspended for the first game in the PL, so we need to sign a left back. Hopefully MM will get us a really good one who will keep Taylor out of the team. Very lethargic performance from Taylor today together with Kim. But in fairness to Kim he provided the pass of the day for Campbell to score.

Mutual agreement - I think he's great. His pass through to Campbell was superb - he looked knackered at the end, pity he made the mistake for their first goal but the ball should have been cleared a few moments before as mentioned - that was a real lapse in concentration - maybe by Taylor, not sure, and Gunnarsson.

Cant afford to be so sloppy with posession next year.

But then the boo boys got what they wanted with Whitts out of the team :roll:

Harsh criticism of Taylor IMO, admittedly a bit sloppy today but excellent for second half season

That was the best pass of the match, no doubt about it, & with the players we had out, City did what they had to do, we just made thing a little bit more difficult at times though. But hey, its mission accomplished for us all this season.
