reddogkev Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 Long may the threads for this top Bristolian keep on pouring forth this season - absolute tiger of a player. I am simply in awe at how good he is now, and honestly feel he could play for England - and I swear to God I am not exaggerating that point! If we keep of hold of him through January, I will be absolutely ecstatic. In the current market, I could see some Prem teams eying him for £15 - 20 million. Am I being over the top?

Him and Pato were absolutely outstanding tonight. I really do think both could make the step up to prem football. They are going to have to next season.

I'd go even further, based on our cup games, the evidence shows all the team could step up. Provided we maintained the same intensity throughout the league as we have in the league cup games, I'm sure we could be somewhere similar to Burnley.

Well yeah you exaggerating a fair bit as usual but he's a great player for us. Really matured this season and come into his own. His energy and tenacity make him such a threat. I can't really think of a player he reminds me of, he's quite unique. The sort of player that opposition teams have to watch at all times. His link up play with Paterson was sublime at times. What a talented and exciting young team we have. Great to watch. We went toe to toe with Man City and only lost by a single goal. Proud night to be a City fan and exciting times ahead.

He is still improving and working hard. He has truly come of age. Half a season at the level and intensity at which he plays the game is so refreshing to watch. He must have a great attitude. I said it on the Marlon Pack thread, kudos has to go to our management. They are taking these players helping realise their potential. Just a bit of polish for Bobby Ried and the sky is truly the limit. Stevo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan djurichimovic Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Man of the match last night in my opinion amazes me how he's still chasing every ball even in the 87th min didn't give john stones 2 seconds to asses his options to pick out a pass, so under rated in our team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his rapid improvement in fitness and strength is with their help. Interestingly, despite being at Everton, Yannick Bolasie still uses them. He credits them partly with his huge improvement whilst at Palace. http://back2action.co.uk/ http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/how-evertons-yannick-bolasie-went-11781778 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on his superior skill with the ball in tight situations, his better footballing brain and his understanding of the offside rule, I reckon he is already worth 1.5 Kodjias. Which is a lot more than £5m. On track for same goal tally too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah no doubt he's worth more, was more a case of LJ's quote about Bobby having the potential to be a £5m player which got a few laughs at the time.

I've noticed that LJ's prophecies are gradually coming true. Wasn't his claim that Bryan could be the best left back in the division also mocked at the time?

LondonBristolian Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 What impressed me last night was Reid’s defensive work, particularly late in the game. The whole team were phenomenal but it really helps having Reid acting as a first line of defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
