Leading Hull City player Jean Michael Seri has been speaking in advance of Elland Road’s match between his team and Leeds United.
Before Hull City’s away match against Leeds United on Monday night, star player Jean Michael Seri has issued a warning to his teammates. The Whites hope to preserve their perfect home record and advance automatically by hosting a formidable Tigers team at Elland Road.
Leeds gained a point against Leicester City on Good Friday thanks to a draw, but with the Foxes still having a game left, Leeds is currently out of control of their destiny. That being said, students should be aware that there will be twists and turns and that if they stick with it, they have a good chance of getting promoted.
Hull’s situation is similar; they have a game in hand and are six points out of the playoffs going into Elland Road, so this is a key game for them and their chances of making the playoffs. Prior to this match, Hull star Seri stated, “(Leeds are a) good team, (with) good players.” There, we’re going to play a game where losing the ball will result in punishment from them.
“You need to be able to play and take care of the ball. Move, play, and make those runs without fear. They will wait for our errors if you go there with the knowledge that you would have to wait for the right opportunity. When we commit errors, they penalize us. All we need to do is acknowledge that we will be playing a side with strong front players. They will punish us for even one error. And that’s it.
“They’re not the kind of club that will play for second balls and kick the ball far. They have talented players on the field, so they will play. We must react, evaluate them, and engage in play to satisfy them. It will be an exciting game, but we know what needs to be done if we want to prevail.
Hull will have thoroughly researched Leeds, and Seri believes the home team will probably get off to a fast start on Monday night. The midfielder said, “They’re going to attack in the first fifteen minutes.” “What must you accomplish? Reclaim the ball for yourself. You simply need to hold onto the ball if your opponent wants to attack in the opening fifteen minutes of play. Make it count against them by making them run. You can only win this kind of game in this manner. You can’t hold back from having fun.
