Sheffield Wednesday V Hull City

[Liam_SWFC]

First home game of the season, a lot of negativity surrounding the club with the transfer embargo, the loss at Wigan opening day and the blown out of proportion fans forum, so we could really do with a win to lift the mood. Hull also started the season with a defeat last night and didn't look impressive at all, but they'll also fancy their chances of coming away with the 3 points. I'm hoping Luhukay has learnt quite a bit from that opening day, in that unless we recruit some defenders our attack is the strongest part of the team and needs to be utilised more, leaving Lucas Joao on the bench should not be happening, and Sam Hutchinson should be in the back 3 in place of Van Aken. Nuhiu is suspended so Fletcher will come in, and with Westwood likely to be moved on before the deadline I expect Dawson to keep his place as he was one of the bright points of a defensive shit show on Saturday.

Another frustrating result, definitely one of the games we should be looking at picking up a win in so points dropped. Better than last week at Wigan, especially second half but we couldn't quite squeeze that winning goal in, with Fletcher guilty of missing our best chances, maybe a lack of sharpness contributed. Looks like it's going to be another slow start for us, Brentford away next and I'd have that down as a home banker. Hopefully we can get a cup run going with a win at Sunderland on Thursday.
