3 Most Dangerous Hull City Players To Watch Out For When They Play Arsenal


2. Nikica Jelavic

After completing a move to Hull City from Everton in January, Jelavic has seemed more at home at The KC Stadium than he was at Goodison Park. He has already scored as many goals so far this season as he did for last season’s campaign, scoring four goals in the last seven games. The 29-year-old retired from international football on Saturday after being dropped by coach Niko Kovac, and will now completely focus on his career at Hull. Jelavic is the type of player that needs to be confident to play well; if he plays like he has so far this season, he will prove a real handful for the Arsenal defence, particularly if Laurent Koscielny isn’t fit enough to start and left-back Nacho Monreal is utilised at centre-back, although the debacle with the Croatian national team may have a negative effect on the striker’s performance on Saturday.
