no disrespect to any of our new signings, but it’s the first we have signed 6 players and I have never heard of any of them before, going to be an interesting season.
Brian the other day he said we are going to play attacking football like Peter Swann confirmed last night and a 4-4-2 formation like they PL ayed against Doncaster and Hull.
The problem with Rory, and Collins (by looking at the Donny game goals are identical) are cross shots which both are slow to react to and get beat 9 times out of 10, so if on target go in, seen a training clip today of Olomola taking a cross shot at a slight angle and it beat our keeper easily, but not sure from the back which one it was, Rory apart from not dominating his area also has games when he juggles the ball a lot but does make good saves but Muzzy doesn’t seem to sort his weaknesses out.
FULL-TIME: IRON 2-1 HULL CITY U23s: Kelsey Mooney and Ryan Colclough get the goals for the Iron as a pre-season victory against the Tigers is recorded.
88’ IRON 2-1 HULL CITY U23s: Olomola takes the free-kick, clearing the wall, with the ball cannoning off the top of the bar, with the ‘keeper rooted to the spot.
60’ IRON 2-1 HULL CITY U23s
🔄 IRON SUBSTITUTIONS
⬅️ Jacob Bedeau, Ryan Colclough, Abo Eisa, Lewis Butroid, Jai Rowe,
🔛 Devarn Green, Olufela Olomola, Charlie Barks, Fin Shrimpton, Mason O’Malley
55’ IRON 2-1 HULL CITY U23s: GOAL! Ryan Colclough restores the Iron’s lead, taking his first touch onto his left foot following a low ball from the left before side-stepping a defender and powering the shot into the net.
HALF-TIME: IRON 1-1 HULL CITY U23s: All-square at the break with Kelsey Mooney notching his first goal for the club early on before the Tigers pegged United back after the half-hour mark.
By the regular reports we dominated chances and sounds like Hull only had one and scored.
16’ IRON 1-0 HULL CITY U23s: OFF THE POST! Bedeau picks up the ball and drives forward, interchanging on the left with Eisa before the latter cuts onto his right foot and angles an effort across goal off the upright.
⌚️ 7’ IRON 1-0 HULL CITY U23s: GOAL! Kelsey Mooney gets his first goal for the Iron as he makes a brilliant run to connect to Eisa’s left-winged cross to steer the ball into the net.

I would say more a target man like Torps, if they take pressure off the other forwards so they score and win headers in the opposition box he could be useful especially from the bench.
and twice hanging on to an equaliser for less than 2 minutes.
bonus, Rory kept a clean sheet in the first half, but we had a young side out in the second.
