The Tigers are more beatable than Blues' last two away opponents, Manchester Manchester, city, England Manchester (măn`chəstər, –chĕs'tər), city and metropolitan district (1991 pop. 397,400), NW England, on the Irwell, Medlock, Irk, and Tib rivers. United and Spurs, but it then didn't follow that Blues would be different and go all out to attack. "Different game, different approach? Not necessarily," said McLeish "It's something I have to think about and I wouldn't be disrespectful dis·re·spect·ful adj. Having or exhibiting a lack of respect; rude and discourteous. dis re·spect to Hull by saying 'yeah, we're
going to play an open game now because it's Hull and not Man United
or Spurs'.
"Hull have proved that they are a potent force on their own ground over the last season and when you consider their rise from the Championship. "And, if anything, it's harder than Man United and the Spurs game because there's more pressure on both teams in that we are expected - if we are going to have any chance of staying in the Premier League - to pick up points in these sort of games." |
