Hull's pressing has been effective. Pressing is one thing, pressing effectively is another. Leicester hasn't gotten a good sniff in the whole 2nd half?

Is it just me that's annoyed by that replay animation with the logo bang in the middle of the screen?

I've got Vardy as captain in the FPL. I was so sure they would destroy a make weight Hull side. :lol:
Same. I went big on Leicester with the expectation of them hammering Hull and keeping a clean sheet.

I should have known better. Hull winning is exactly what would happen on the opening day of the PL campaign. It's back!

Leicester will be back to form. Good win though for Hull against the odds.

I don't feel it is a shock Hull beating the champions, to me it's just Hull beat Leicster. What an achievement last season but maybe this is what the league will throw up once every 20-25 years. Although Rovers spent big so did Leicster in the champo. So every once in a quarter of a century a small team will win the league, hang in there Liverpool, one year could be you're year.

Turned out to be a great first game of the season!

Well played Hull. Poor game by Vardy, Mahrez, Hernandez, Morgan, Schmeichel.

Feck quality. It's things like this that make TV companies prepared to pay huge sums for this league compared to the others.
