Some interesting comments on that millwall forum such as;
He holds it up well but his touch is shocking
makes sence...
naaat.
Some players can shield the ball well and retain possession, but often have difficulty doing it without having to make a pigs ear of it on the first touch.
Apparently Chris Wood has been "pants" at Leicester as well, even though he has scored 6 in 12 games.
I wouldn't say he's been 'pants' but 5 of those goals did come in his first 2 games
The argument Leicester fans make is that, since he came in, they've been lumping it up to him (perhaps similar to what happened when Yann replaced Hayes last season), when they have quality players to pass their way through teams.
Hulse's problem was scoring goals - he missed a few simple chances for us, and clearly hasn't improved his finishing. As a hold-up player there are few better in the Championship, but you need a poacher alongside him.

Jason Euell springs to mind.
Fair point but Euell is a bad example. He was never deployed as a lone striker for us simply to hold up play? He got goals & assists from CAM or in a striker pairng.
Alex Aldridge @accordingtoaldo 19m #millwall have allowed Hulse to return to #qpr. Crowd's reaction on Tuesday left player + club in impossible situation. Told KJ v. unhappy.
I was listening to the commentary on radio 5 on tuesdsay night and Hulse was boo-ed when he was subbed - Claridge was scathing of kenny Jackett's subs and said Millwall were woeful up front.

Jason's second touch was a tackle.

Makes me even happier that we have Yann :-)
There must be crapper teams.
That's about the same number of Millwall that went to Barnsley.
I thought he did a good job for us especially in the away games.

Not with what YOU know and all that. ;-(
