Guest Heneage Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 What Hull City are doing is no big shakes. Look at what Hoffenheim are doing in Bundesliga. There are second and look legitimately good. They raped Hannover 96 5-2 at the weekend. They are also just promoted for the first time. Then again, tey have a sugar daddy that bought them a whole bunch of class players, but still. Yes but Hoffenheim are a totally different prospect. They are much smaller city of about 20-30k. They have heavily invested in their side, buying basically the best worlds best youth and almost like a Chelsea just establishing themselves as great, thats why they have shot up the leagues. However the thing they are doing is building the model of Arsenal with their academy, to make the club nigh self sufficient in terms of playing staff within the next few years. Still good to watch.

They outspend most top division teams last season when they were still in the 2nd Bundesliga. They aren't a small city, though. They are a village of 3300 people...

But you need a good manager, money and a fair share of luck. At the moment a lot of Hoffenheim players are overperforming. For example the player topping the scorer charts at the moment has never been playing that well before and mostly been a reserve team player at other teams.

I was sad when he left Schalke, but he didn't get on with the then manager (in the German sense), Assauer. What Hull City are doing is no big shakes. Look at what Hoffenheim are doing in Bundesliga.

Oh apologies, I knew they were small didn't think was that small! haha Yup. I believe they rolled a few small village teams into one, and now they're top of the 1st Bundesliga after giving HSV a proper pasting yesterday. You wouldn't have thought HSV were the league leaders, the way Hoffenheim battered them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Not that arsed we got beat off them now, we were at our lowest point, what's everyone else's excuse? 4-3 at OT might as well be a win for them, cracking effort from Hull this season.

Yorkie Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I can remember my mate going on about Hull City a few years ago like a manic depressant, in the middle of 'Division 3' (), going nowhere. I know their success stems from what's generally bad about 'football', but i'm loving what's happening to them this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest quklaani Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Manchester United have developed a habit in recent years of beating terms early at home. Which can be slightly boring (although obviously enjoyable in some ways) as both sides stop trying at any point between the 20th and 70th minutes. Hull went 4-1 down, but decided that they didn't care about this particular convetion and could well have got a ridiculous draw as a result. Extremely impressive, though I still can't work out why a team with such dross is so good. Can't defend for shit though, could have scored ten if we'd not been so half-hearted. They'll stay up comfortably, but they'll also intermittently get battered by midtable teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I think we're all pleased for Hull, but wish a certain bunch of players on between at LEAST double, and maybe as much as twenty times their wages (Owen ?) start playing with as much backbone and style as Hull.....never mind Chelsea or Man Yoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 That Cousin is class, i used to follow him in the French league and he used to play as a seconed striker,he had fantastic technique at the time and thought he'll turn out to be a play maker, but it seems that thanks to his spell with Rangers he's now a mix between a big physiall striker and a play with loads of technique, doing pretty good for Hull at the moment.
