Too much emphasis being put on Samba going on for a few mins up front on Saturday in my opinion. How many times do see a team lumping it forward in the last few mins to get a result. Loads and loads
It was the 90th minute not the 70th. We were chasing a win. We were having succession of set pieces at this time, which were not producing anything. What's the problem with putting a 6ft plus beast of of man into try and sneek out a goal or opportunity in the last few seconds. Literally last throw of the dice in a game definitely ending in a draw. If we were fannying around passing and passing on the edge of the box I bet the cries of 'get it in the box' would be loud on the terraces. We were not exactly passing our way through were we.
What should he have done at that point. Put Bree, Hourihane or Thor on ?. Pretty obvious that Hull would not have wanted to have Samba, , Terry and Chester to deal with in box.
Yes you can debate whether the line up was wrong in the first place hence not winning the game at that point.
But that's not the debate. At that point in the game under those circumstances cannot see why so much fuss or emphasis. If we are winning it's not a valid option and I fully expect Bruce knows this. Samba upfront will not be an option unless these circs occur again.
