Brady influential for Hull against Arsenal tonight. Sone Aluko should have done better after a peach of a cross from Brady. His delivery has been very good so far.

Nice finish from Quinn all the same
Folding my way into the big money!!!
Did Brady play off the front man when Robertson came on for aluko ?Originally Posted by Fixer82
It looked like it. He certainly moved in from the left wing and was in a more attacking role

"Robbie Brady was the best player on the pitch" against Liverpool.

That was said after their first game against Liverpool, too, when he shackled Sterling; he likes playing against Liverpool.
Brady at fault for the goal Hull just conceded. Terrible touch in the box from a bit of ping pong off a cross and Ings knocked it in.
2 cracking frees off the cross bar though and he has played very well.
Quinn has also really impressed.
Norwich and Aston Villa are reported to be keen on keeping Brady in the Premier League.
I was considering which would be a better fit for Brady but, to be honest, I think Brady has enough of ability to make an impression at either side so it matters less who he signs for. The one that is willing to play him on the left wing maybe.
I'm looking forward to him coming in and hitting the ground running like he did in his first season in the PL with Hull before he suffered an injury nightmare for the second half of that season.
Both he could do well at. Sherwood is a big fan of wingers, while Norwich have relied heavily on theirs this season too. Arguably he'd have more opportunities at Villa.
He has a great Left foot. He can put in good cross's without beating his man. His Dead ball quality is excellent.
Its a pity Ireland don't have a quality Left back so that Brady could be best utilised farther up the field.
We're all crossing our fingers for Derrick Williams next year
I think this was discussed in another thread and we figured out he's played most of the season left side of a back three. Four at the back might be better suited to the Championship though so we'll see where he ends up. Greg Cunningham is there too remember.
The more I look at our Personnel, the more I'm convincing myself 3-5-2 is the way to go - or as Marco Bielsa might say a 3-1-3-2-1 :-)
I'd even reconsider McShane as part of a 3 man defence.
Clark, Wilson, Duffy, O'Shea, Delaney, McShane, Derrick Williams.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Is Derrick Williams any good? To be honest, I have never seen him play but may see a bit more of him in the Championship.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
Nor have I. Well maybe bits and pieces in the past but not at Bristol City so how about I consult those who know: http://www.otib.co.uk/index.php?/top...rick-williams/
To summarise- He's seen as not getting enough credit but is a no-nonsense and solid player who maybe isn't that exciting but the common consensus is he has room to improve and will do so, with a few tipping him as a PL player in the future and one of their players with most potential. Almost every poster seems to speak positively of him.
The talk strikes me as though he hasn't go a future as a left-back, more so as a centre-half (left of a back 3, as CD stated, being where he's played).

Brady, McClean & Walters all linked with West Brom at the same time. Heh.
James McClean set for West Brom with £1.5m fee agreed, according to Sky sources

West Brom have agreed a £1.5m deal for Wigan winger James McClean, according to Sky sources.
The 26-year-old, who made his name at Sunderland and has 27 caps for the Republic of Ireland, joined the Latics two years ago but appears to be on his way back to the Premier League with the Baggies.
He played 37 times for Wigan last season but could not prevent the club sliding into League One - Gary Caldwell's side finishing in 23rd place some seven points from safety.
£1.5 mill hardly breaking the bank!!
However this is miles better than him going to the MSL, well provided he is getting a decent amount of game time.
http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/Hull-...ail/story.htmlWEST Brom have joined the race to sign highly-coveted Hull City star Robbie Brady, according to the Mirror. A long list of Premier League clubs are interested in the 23-year-old, whom the Tigers are desperate to keep hold of ahead of the new Championship campaign.
The Baggies are looking for a successor to long-serving Chris Brunt, 30, and Brady fits that bill superbly.
West Brom join Midlands rivals Aston Villa and top-flight new boys Norwich in the battle, but City are refusing to budge from a big-money valuation for the Republic of Ireland international.
We reported yesterday that Tim Sherwood, Villa boss, is looking to use his 'pulling-power' in the transfer market to prise Brady away from East Yorkshire, but that has so far yet to see any offers come to the office of City manager Steve Bruce.

We are lucky Tony Pulis is still a formidable presence in the PL.
Pulis, Bruce and McCarthy always buy and scout Irish players.
More and more PL teams aren't doing this as managers like Koeman and Laudrup come in and teams like Swansea and Southampton change their structure and policies. And I know Shane Long signed for Southampton when Koeman was manager but that went over his head and it's debatable that he will ever be a regular starter there.
That's why you have to be thankful for the like of Pulis.
