Frustration for Jose as man United fail to take advantage against Hull

Manchester United failed to capitalise on their top-four rivals’ struggles as rejuvenated Hull left Old Trafford with a hard-fought point from a goalless stalemate last night.

Manchester City may have made light work of West Ham but their other Champions League rivals’ inability to win gave Jose Mourinho’s men a great opportunity.

However, United could only continue that trend in a surprisingly limp display against Eldin Jakupovic-inspired Hull, whose improvements under recently-appointed manager Marco Silva were clear in this 0-0 draw.
