wow no one impressed by Hull City's performance? 4 wins, 3rd place and yet still managed to conceded more than scored (11 vs 10)

their early season form is amazing. not to mention their discipline and desire not to be beaten, which is what really amazes me, cos this team really has discipline.

however that said, they will have to keep this up consistently throughout the season. we see a lot of teams do well in the beginning (Man City) then get a string of bad results somewhere in the middle of the season for some reason (injuries, fatigue, etc)

keep it up hull! you're making the epl worth watching!

wat so impress of conceding more than scoring?

yea they deserves some credits for their current form...

geovanni is simply magical...i can see hull finishing in the top 10s this season

Hull is impressive in the early season but see how they perform in the mid season.

i wouldnt say its a beginners luck team. The team is consistent and all team members work well with each other...

btw this is my fav team when i first started playing CM...lol

Hopefully Hull stays this way. Usually the promoted teams get fired up early in the season.
But as it goes later on through the mid season, we will see the lack of consistency.
Don't get me wrong.. I love underdogs though

Well I don't see Hull finishing in the top ten because I think in the long run, they lack depth. As elgee says, injuries and fatigue will set in as the season wears on and when the cup competitions get going, smaller squads will feel the pace more than the bigger sides. Over the years many sides have had surprising starts to the season only to falter at the end, over the very next season, most recent examples being Wigan, Reading and Man City of course. That being said, credit to Phil Brown's side for winning back to back games, especially against Arsenal and a struggling Spurs side.

because Hull beat Arsenal & Tottenham?

let see how they end up this season.

Seems like Hull is flavor of the month eh?

But I like the way they press high up the pitch. Most of the time teams that just got promoted in the BPL tend to sit deep against the bigger teams.

they should play the game positively if they want to win it.

A string of good result and HULL CITY able to impress a lot of fans out there. Hull is playing great football and finishing in the top ten is possible IF they able to maintain the consistency and avoid injury to the key player such as Geovanni, he is crucial to the Hull side. This is just the start of the season, with FA cup and Carling cup coming, Hull will experience the fatigue and player have to be rotate to make sure they are fit. Geovanni can't play all the match, so expect Hull drop some few points and see whether they can climb back after the defeat.

Congrats to Hull for a string of good results. I always support the underdog.

if they keep their play,mayb they can finish in the middle of the table.

Keep on going Hull City... you have done super great job...

just hopefully they will not be reading no.2

Reading sell almost of their great players and don keep their manager.. and now relegated. (Don forget Reading done very well when they are promoted to EPL)

usually newly promoted team will shine in the first half of the season then going down hill after new year.

Ipswich Town a few seasons ago anyone?

the most important thing for the team is their capabality to mantain their strenght and focus through out a long season.. remember reading?

Congrats for the great start.
