What on earth is going on? I'll tell you what's going on, all right! Manchester United are all over the place and Hull lead the champions by two goals to nil! The state of this goal, though. Dear lord, what risible defending from United. They are struggling to cope with Hull's energy from midfield and the impressive Meyler broke away from Cleverley and Fletcher, before lobbing the ball over the United defence and through to Sagbo. He was just forced wide before he could shoot but he managed to turn the ball into the area, where Livermore made a nuisance of himself. The ball fell to Meyler on the left and he turned it towards the far post, only for Evans to knock it straight back to him. Meyler, sensing his chance, shot from the left but didn't catch it properly - the ball was dribbling towards De Gea at the rate of 2mph, at least until Evans stuck out a foot and diverted it past the United keeper and into the bottom-right corner, the ball dribbling in at the rate of 3mph.

It's being given as an own goal, but as the original shot was on target I think it's Meyler's.
"they all count"
I've just started watching the game,
Meyler's off injured, is it anything serious?
BBC give the goal to Meyler, didn't see the first half unfortunately, dunno why Meyler is off, but they are a goal down now without him so
I assume it might be an injury but it could also be tactical I guess. Given Man U came back form 2 goals it could well be they felt he was a
weakness, but as I said I have not see the first half.
Is there an option you haven't covered?Quote:

Turns out a half time Meyler was bundled into the back of a van, which sped off at speed, by masked man.
He's not been see since.
The commentators said he had a problem with his knee but it's just precautionary according to Hull.Quote:

He's out of the Fulham game at the weekend with a knee injury.
Brady, Meyler and Quinn all injured and McShane lost his place in the team due to injury.
The luck of the Irish!
He is listed as a scorer on the Premier league's official site

They will be in big trouble missing so many Irish I imagine!!
Good job January is days away. Conor Henderson can pick up the slack.Quote:

Footage of Pardew's latest display of petulance and Stelling's reaction.
What an idiot. He is in serious trouble.
Just seen tv coverage of the incident. Meyler is obviously astounded by what's just happened.
Idiot indeed.
Shane Long, take note.
What a goal.
Meyler shows Shane Long how to finish :)
Actually, I though he delayed a little too long but very very coolly done. Well done.
It just had to be, didn't it? David Meyler, who was headbutted by Newcastle manager Alan Pardew last weekend, beats Lee Cattermole to the ball in midfield, charges forward unchallenged and slots Hull's second past Oscar Ustari. His celebration? He headbutts the corner flag...
It was a lovely finish alright. Would love to have Davies on board though. Smashing game from him too.Quote:

But what about Richard Keogh? Surely he's nailed on after that majestic performance against Serbia.Quote:

Dam it was 0-0 for ages so I switched over to the Rugby and I missed all 3 goals.
Interesting Meyler scored, on another thread I was posting shots per goal
Meyler's was 4.5 which is a good ratio, this would take it down to 3.
It's certainly worth shooting more with figures like that, but you have to
get the opportunity in the first place.
Just seen the goal, seems he kept a cool head
Isn't that rather presumptive? Grealish has declined invites to join up with England squads, so the FA would clearly deem him "good enough".Quote:

David Meyler Starman
Relished the head to head with former team-mate Cattermole and undoubtedly had the last laugh. Covered every blade of grass and got his reward when scoring a goal all by his own industry. 8
Seriously... what happened between Keogh and your sister?Quote:

So she moved on to bigger and better things.

Some interesting comments from Bruce about Meyler.
Are we still talking about football?Quote:

Scored Hulls 5th goal to seal a place in the FA cup final.
Stephen Quinn also scored moments after coming off the bench. Meyler was involved in two of the other goals, including Quinn's, so it was another all action game for him today.Quote:

His wall pass for Huddlestone's goal was pretty tidy and his finish was very composed.
