Hull City offer promising signs against Millwall to dispel Liam Rosenior’s ‘nerves’
“As a manager, sometimes, that makes you a little bit nervous; I didn’t want us to be complacent and all of the noise we needed to filter out.
“Some of our football in the first half was excellent and it’s great to be able to say we can improve after winning a game of football.”
Rosenior handed Giles and Zaroury their debuts following their loan moves from Luton and Burnley respectively.
“In terms of the first-half performance, other than really having teeth and finishing off Millwall, there were some really good signs – for Anass, his first game, Ryan Giles, his debut, and Jaden’s first game back in two months,” he added. “I wanted the second goal because I felt our energy levels would tail off naturally.
“Overall, delighted to win the game and a lot of positive signs in the way we want to play – the understanding, the connection between the players.”
Millwall improved after the break and Zian Flemming and Tom Bradshaw almost nicked a point.
Lions boss Joe Edwards bemoaned his side’s first-half display.
