Admin Ian M Posted January 10, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 1 hour ago, The Journalist said: If you were building an ideal Bristol City player, I think he’d look a lot like Liam Walsh That’s both a compliment to him and to us - how nice is it to have such a strong identity and clear way of playing?! That's exactly what Liam Rosenior was saying on The Debate last night. These results are no fluke, every City player has been coached in a specific way of playing and it almost doesn't matter who we play as we enforce our identity onto them and he wishes more clubs would do this.

I really liked Liam Rosenier on there last night. Seemed very intelligent and considered, expressed his thoughts really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeAman08 Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Very promising start for him. Calm in tight spaces, great touch and passed with both feet. Sounds simple but when you have those kind of traits the game will look easy. Looks like a steal and like he may be more 1st team ready than many(including myself) thought. Still early though but very promising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Just watched the full game back Magnificent display ; truly magnificent Rewatched the point from when Walsh joined the fray and specifically watched his every move Excellent Loved his awareness , constantly checking over his shoulder etc for runners and danger , and filling holes , busy and neat Looks to be a genuine mix of Korey and Marlon - busy and aware defensively , likes a tackle and comfortable on the ball and a very decent passer Without getting too carried away on a short cameo I think it looks we’ve got a very nice capable piece of the jigsaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we could be onto a great succession plan here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negan Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I was impressed by his performance last night. Kept the ball well and when he did have it he was looking forward and trying to get us on the attack. That’s not really something we have in our CMs. So far so good and for a measly 1 million it seems like a good deal! We were always going to be on to a winner if he was a youngster that Cotts overlooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since when does another club's manager 'tell' the current manager who to sign.

You can dig it up in one of the interviews from last season, think it might have been after Korey signed a new contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont get me wrong I hope they are here for at least another 2 seasons but at that point they will be at peak value and I assume the club will look to balance the books with them leaving (hopefully we will be in the prem and this will be a moot point). All I was trying to draw attention to was the active succession planning that appears to be going on at the moment based on our club strategy.

Olé Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Was too nervous to focus on individuals for the last 20 but just watching it back, Liam Walsh looks a cracking little player. Composed passing, makes runs off the ball, very aware of what is around him, and bags of energy. Another really good body for central midfield.

chowie Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Seeing him come on last night and with all our fans being our 12th man it reminded me, I thought the number 12 shirt was reserved/retired for “The Fans” about 10 years ago?

ZiderEyed Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Call me a nause if you want but his twitter activity is really interesting to me. Seems very down to earth. Interacts with fans and retweeted that video of the bounce at the Etihad. More DNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Following @BobBobSuperBob's suggestion, I followed a link from the Everton forum. The first clip shows young LW scoring, but also shows a fine goal from another Everton youngster currently on loan to Nottingham Forest - also destined, in my opinion, to greater things. The second clip is devoted to Liam Walsh - 17 minutes, but judge for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a matter of time before he starts. On 09/01/2018 at 22:28, Garland-sweden said: No, dont Think so. He will be good for us. Middle of the park backward pass .. Gave it away I seem to recall.

Wonder if he has the trademark Walsh Shuffle In the warm up some of the forward players were taking shots at goal. A ball was rolled into him but it came at the wrong angle for his run so instead of aborting he switched the shot to his other foot by bringing it around the back of the other.. It has a name as someone will tell me but it was a very nice confident piece of skill.. The ball, with power went narrowly over the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad someone's else mentioned it,but too many backward passes- and when receiving the Ball in a tight spot too ready to instantly fire it straight back at his own back four without too much of a glance! Having said that a very promising player but with quite a learning curve ahead of him...can see why we brought him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 Someone behind me at the match made a comment I thought was interesting and true. They expressed surprise he was making his debut against ManC and said it was a measure of just how much LJ trusted him and how he must be held in such high regard. I think we will see a lot of him, players that good don’t sit on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Do The Dziekanowski Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 I’m reading this thread and horrible memories are flooding back to me. Its almost a carbon copy of the Leko thread after the Derby game. Please God do not smite us with ones holy powers and grace us with a player who has more than 1 good game. P.S I like what you’ve done with the world and all that but did you get tired when you were making Whorefield? Place is a sh!thole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
