The short answer
Hull City have played two Premier League matches.
They have:
- two wins
- two clean sheets
- six points
- conceded zero goals
Liam Millar scored the 82nd-minute winner at Coventry, but the bigger FPL story is Hull's defence.

Live FPL points
| Player | Live points |
|---|---|
| Konstantinos Tzolakis | 10 |
| John Egan | 9 |
| Bobby Thomas | 8 |
| Semi Ajayi | 6 |
| Mohamed Belloumi | 6 |
Bonus:
- Tzolakis: 3
- Bobby Thomas: 2
- Egan: 1
1. Tzolakis has returned 10 points in both league matches
Tzolakis was already the standout goalkeeper from Hull's 2-0 win over Manchester United.
He has now followed it with:
- another clean sheet
- three saves
- maximum bonus
- 10 more FPL points
At £4.5m, that puts him firmly in the conversation among budget goalkeepers.
Hull host Aston Villa next.
Villa have started poorly and their attack is being rebuilt after Ollie Watkins' departure.
OneFPL verdict: BUY / strong goalkeeper option.

2. John Egan continues to look built for DefCon
Egan made 13 defensive contributions, earning the extra two FPL points.
He had already registered a remarkable 21 defensive contributions in GW1.
That's exactly the kind of repeated evidence we need before calling DefCon a real player skill rather than a one-match spike.
OneFPL verdict: one of the best £4.0m defender profiles if starts remain secure.
3. Ajayi and Mendy owners get another clean sheet
Ajayi returned six points.
Mendy did not hit the DefCon threshold this time, but Hull still kept the clean sheet.
Both had already produced huge GW1 scores.
Minimum-price defenders do not need to haul every week. A regular starter producing occasional six-pointers is already valuable.
4. Belloumi adds another attacking route
Belloumi assisted Millar's goal and finished on six live points.
He also recorded 10 defensive contributions, just below the midfielder threshold of 12.
That makes him worth monitoring as more than a pure attacker.
5. Bobby Thomas' eight points are slightly misleading
Coventry lost and conceded.
Yet Thomas finished on eight live points because he had already left the pitch before Hull scored and therefore retained his clean-sheet points.
He also collected two bonus.
That is a useful FPL quirk, but not something managers should expect regularly.
Coventry's next fixture is brutal
Coventry now travel to Manchester City.
That immediately reduces the appeal of short-term Coventry transfers.
Hull, meanwhile, host Aston Villa.
OneFPL verdict
Hull's defensive start is now too strong to dismiss as one upset.
Tzolakis: BUY Egan: BUY / strong bench enabler Ajayi/Mendy: HOLD / BUY depending on price structure Coventry defenders: generally avoid for GW3
