Brandon Fleming praised his Hull City teammates following Saturday’s 2-0 victory over Charlton Athletic.
The 21 year-old defender slotted into a youthful-looking defence to face the Addicks, but produced an impressive display at left-back as the Tigers recorded three points and a clean sheet in their first outing of 2021.
“We were back in on Thursday and we did a bit of shape work, so I had an inkling then that I might be starting,” said Fleming. “The gaffer named the team on Friday, so that’s when I knew for definite.”
“As a defender, first and foremost you want clean sheets and thankfully we did that.
