Is Hirst better than Daka??

Never understood why we let him go

Hull do deserve a play off place though. Played some very good football at times. (Which will only happen if you score here so come on!)

Of course it was hirst

He fits their system perfectly. It was still the right decision.

look at the bigger picture 

 

leeds in premiership is a bigger threat than Ipswich to us 

Winning the league would put us ahead of MCFC in terms of most second division titles and I can’t see that being overtaken anytime soon.

I get that but still don't get why we let him go

Not a great record to have - it just highlights how often we've been relegated from the top flight.

Could you see him playing for us? Ahead of Vardy, Daka and Kel?

24 at the time and had previously been quite poor in the Championship and in League One it usually required a good run of games for him to finally start scoring

Because Brendan and others didn't see him as a future Premier League player because they're rather buy proven epl or foreign strikers that the journalists race about.

Hirst was probably to ordinary and boring for them.

If he was a man city academy player....we would have been desperate to have him here on laon

We can’t hang on to these prospects for ever. If it’s not worked out in a period of time then sometimes it’s best to offload.

Anybody feel that we may have to win both remaining games for confirmation of winning the league? 
I DO

Because he was behind Vardy, Nacho, Daka and Maddison as a false 9. He'd done nothing worthwhile in his loans at Rotherham, Portsmouth, Blackburn or Ipswich.

He'd played 40 championship games and scored 0, then 61 league one games with 19 goals.  This was by 24yrs old.

He's played 23 times this year and scored 6 (could be 7 now). 

 

Not one of those stats had him as anywhere near Prem or even Championship level. We made the right decision.

[scinnell]

Hurst was 4th/5th choice and never was going to get a chance after unsuccessful loans. We couldn't wait to get rid at the time. Late developer, given a consistent run in a team and full of confidence. You win some and lose some.

Hirst was bang average for us and on loan

Farke in the prem is a 20th place finish wrapped up so no, and I want to win the title when we're playing, not potentially in midweek with a cov point 

[Ian Nacho]

That's a red surely

Can't because he played on 

[The Doctor]

That should have been a free kick and red, not an advantage tbh

[katieakita]

Should have already been on a booking anyway, they do get some decisions bless

[bluefox1]
