McCann hails Emmanuel impact

Grant McCann has hailed the impact of right-back Josh Emmanuel since his arrival at Hull City.

The 23-year-old has started all four league games for the Tigers, catching the eye with his energetic displays down the right-hand side.

Emmanuel’s strong showings have kept Hull-born Lewie Coyle out of the team, meaning the 25-year-old may miss out on a reunion with former club Fleetwood tonight.

McCann has been pleased with the way Coyle has handled not being involved, and says he is pushing his teammate all the way.

But the boss can’t help but be impressed by Emmanuel, praising the way he conducts himself on and off the pitch.
