Hull City manager Liam Rosenior has heaped praise on Tom Cannon this week.

The Everton loanee has excelled since joining Preston on loan in January.

Cannon, who made his Toffees' debut earlier this term under Frank Lampard, is hoping to push on and play more regularly for the club next term.

“I thought Tom Cannon was outstanding, one of the best we've played against by far," said Rosenior after Hull's game with Preston.

"Alfie Jones and Sean McLoughlin, with the way we play, I trust them to deal with that. When you're that much in control and dominant, the manager of the opposition is bound to change something.

"For us both being negative teams, them making a double change at half time tells you about where the game was. They responded really well, had a 15 minute spell which we saw out, and then for the next 35 minutes we just didn't have that last bit."
