IT DOZEN LOOK GOOD FOR YOU, HULL

NIGEL ADKINS faces a selection crisis as Hull travel to Chelsea without TWELVE players.

Boss Adkins is not helped by his three on-loan starlets from Stamford Bridge being ineligible to face Antonio Conte’s side in the FA Cup fifth round.

The Tigers’ latest roll call revealed the shocking extent of the walking wounded and unavailable as the beaten 2014 FA Cup finalists look to spring a shock by progressing to the last eight in London tomorrow night.

Chelsea loan trio Michael Hector, Ola Aina and Fikayo Tomori are ruled out – along with suspended Swedish midfielder Seb Larsson. Skipper Michael Dawson (left) heads the list of significant casualties.

His absence leaves Hull without three of their regular starting back four.

Adkins said: “It’s a big challenge given the numbers we have unavailable. In all we have around 12 missing. It’s clear we’re stretched and it’ll be a juggling act.

“We must believe we can win, but it will take a lot of magic for that to happen.”
