Allan

Joe Speight and Leroy Rosenior, both of whom have been shite. Leroy hasn't got a clue, he's got half the players names wrong all night.

Cooper on for Kacaniklic.

Dalla Valle off for Karl Clair.

Some throw Jack Robinson has on him.

He's a threat, not quite as good as he was last week, but he hasn't needed to be.

Ince with 2 great chances to get his name on the score sheet.

Dalla Valle with his second, our third, 3-1.

Pepper off with a groin injury, Jack Robinson on.

Great goal from Kacaniklic. 2-1.

The boys have taken their foot off the gas a little. I'd expect Hughie to get them going again in the second half. Great start from our boys and it looked like they'd score at will early on, though Brum have come back into the game as the half has progressed.

Great equaliser from the Brum skipper.

Dalla Valle makes it 1-0 on the night.

Hobbs signs for Leicester Jack Hobbs has made his loan spell at Leicester City permanent and penned a four-year deal with the Foxes. The 20-year-old defender has spent this season on loan at Nigel Pearson's side and helped them win promotion to the Championship. Hobbs has joined the club for an undisclosed fee. Speaking ahead of the club's final home league game of the campaign against Scunthorpe tonight, Hobbs said: "I have thoroughly enjoyed my season with the club and I am absolutely delighted to make the move permanent. "This is a massive club and I believe we can go all the way to the Premier League. That's one of the reasons why I have committed to signing a four-year deal. "I couldn't be happier here. Leicester have shown great faith in me and instilled me with great confidence. I really am over the moon." Hobbs signed for Liverpool in August 2005 on his 17th birthday despite playing just three minutes of professional football for Lincoln City. He was made captain of the reserves during his first season on Merseyside, and also played a key part of the FA Youth Cup winning side of 2006, establishing himself as a rock at the back. The tall defender made his senior debut as a last-minute substitute during a 4-2 Carling Cup win at Reading on September 25, 2007. He made five appearances in total for the Reds.

Line up: Bouzanis; Irwin, Kennedy, Ayala, Buchtmann; Pepper, Wisdom; Amoo, Ince, Kacaniklic; Dalla Valle. Eccleston out with a virus.

He didn't even break a sweat tonight during the 20 minutes or so he played.

Fulltime, Hull 1 Liverpool 2. Improved second half performance from the lads, though after the first half, they could only get better. Good break for the second goal that Bruna put away. Only real disappointing thing from the second half was the injury picked up by Jay that caused him to sit out the last 10 minutes or so of the game.

Spearing looks to have a problem with his right ankle.

Flora on for Simon.

Palsson on for Bruna.

Degen on for Mackay-Steven.

1-2, Bruna. Good break and good pass from Speo.

Decent effort from Bruna, just over.

Half time, 1-1. Lacking quality. Been a strange game, Hull are a hard working side, but have only really created a couple of half chances. Clear penalty, just a clumsy challenge from Robbie really. Our lads have created little, Simon looks very isolated up top, though is putting himself about. Good goal from Plessis to bring the scores level, but again it's about as much as he's done. No one has taken the game by the scruff, and even Speo is having a little trouble clicking into gear tonight.

1-1 Plessis with the goal.

Penalty for Hull, clumsy challenge from Threlfall. 1-0 Hull.
