Steve Bruce blames injuries after making 10 FA Cup changes

By , Reporter
Hull City manager Steve Bruce says injuries are the reason behind his decision to make 10 changes for the FA Cup third round.

Hull City manager Steve Bruce has said that his side's lengthy injury list is behind his decision to make 10 changes for their FA Cup clash with Arsenal, which they lost 2-0.

Only Curtis Davies was retained from the side that beat Everton on New Year's Day, with the Tigers confirming that Andrew Robertson, Liam Rosenior and Gaston Ramirez are all set for long absences after injuries they sustained against the Toffees.

Bruce told reporters: "We made 10 changes with all the injuries we have got, and that wasn't a case of disrespecting the cup because we had one of the best days of our lives in the competition last year."

Hull next visit West Bromwich Albion on Saturday.
