Toby Collyer lays down marker after sensational Hull City return
Toby Collyer lays down marker after sensational Hull City return Manchester United loanee Toby Collyer has made it clear that he is finally ready to kick on and prove his worth for Hull City, having finally made his full debut for the side. Impressive return Collyer produced a superb performance for Hull on Monday as they held Premier League-bound Coventry City to a goalless draw at the MKM Stadium. Slotting in next to Amir Hadziahmetovic, Collyer caught the eye, reminding so many why Hull made a strong push to sign him in January.
The United loanee endured a nightmare spell during the first half of the season at West Bromwich Albion, largely due to recurring injuries. He made 12 Championship appearances for the Baggies but started only three games before picking up a calf injury in November, which saw him return to United for his rehabilitation. United sent him out on loan again, but this time to Hull.
He made his debut off the bench against Bristol City, playing 14 minutes before he sustained a fresh injury in training. Collyer missed Hull’s next four games, only appearing in the dying moments of the 3-1 defeat to Millwall in March. Against Coventry, the United star was given 74 minutes and more than justified his selection.
The 22-year-old spoke to Hull Live and praised manager Sergej Jakirovic for timing his return perfectly. Collyer also insisted he is ready for the season run-in, starting with Saturday’s trip to Sheffield United. Collyer speaks He told the newspaper, “I came here having full trust from the staff upstairs as well.
Wasn’t the best start in terms of physically. I had a little setback, but I’ve just tried to build myself up in training again and be patient. ” “I’ve managed to do a great job, I think so, credit to the manager for, I’d say putting me in at the right time.
