Five players who have excelled with their promoted sides

Sone Aluko – Hull City

Although Sone Aluko hasn’t banged in four or five goals in his first seven games with Hull in the Premier League, one thing he has done is give The Tigers a platform going forward. The 24-year-old has only scored one goal and created three chances including one assist during the seven games to-date but what is impressive is how well Aluko holds up the ball for his team-mates, this is shown perfectly in Aluko’s passing accuracy which stands at 84%.

A player like Aluko fits in perfectly with what Steve Bruce is trying to achieve at the KC Stadium. He gives Bruce an attacking option like not many others give. He’s a very muscular striker and uses his power to great effect, this is shown in his 100% tackle success rate (6/6).
