One of the toughest moments in my career
Hull City's Ivor Pandur believes he deserves to be back as first-choice goalkeeper at the Championship club. The Croat returned to the starting line-up for Friday's 3-0 win at Sheffield United after Carl Rushworth was recalled from his loan by Brighton last week. Pandur had been left out by manager Ruben Selles for the previous three games in favour of Rushworth. "It was one of the toughest moments in my career but it did happen. The gaffer explained his point of view to me and there were no hard feelings," he told BBC Radio Humberside "I believed in myself from the moment I came here [that] I can do the job. Some things happen but you cannot cry about it, you have to pick yourself up and go again and prove you deserve to be there - I think I deserve it." The win at Bramall Lane was their second in the past three games and lifts the Tigers two points clear of the relegation zone, with Pandur confident they will survive under Selles. "It doesn't stop here - this is the right direction. We need to continue, we need to keep playing like this and we will have many more wins I hope. "The way he [Selles] acts, the way he treats us is brilliant and it's paying off and I think it will get even better. "It's a great group of characters, the best I ever saw and that will lead us to a great future."
