Alex_BCFC Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 He was a reasonable I thought. Not brilliant but showed some promise. I think he could be a reasonable player at this level in time. Could perhaps benefit from loan spell in league 1 next season I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 He played quite well without being tested. Comfortable on the ball. I think he will be a good player but needs a bit of urgency in him! So laid back it's untrue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDOXO Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 I thought he wasn't great in a game where he wasn't tested. Got nutmegged, let the ball roll under his foot got yelled at multiple times for the wrong/poor ball particularly by Smith. But he got a game and I would have started him ahead of Magnússon every day of the week right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCRED Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Thought he did reasonably well, not at JB level but showed good touches and reasonably good against a quick winger. Put one or two decent crosses in. Last 15 min suffering with a bit if cramp. Physically no problem and in 18 months time think he will be a decent player and asset for the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 I’d describe his performance today as competent - i e satisfactory but not outstanding. He did the basic defending and the simple passes but didn’t add much going forward in the way that Joe Bryan does, or Pisano does on the other wing.

Major Isewater Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 He was targeted by Burton in the first half and with a mixture of help and athleticism repelled them . He had one or two dodgy moments but was not afraid to get forward. He is an elegant looking footballer and I was impressed by the lad. He is a great prospect. Well done Lloyd .

He looks very laid back, even lackadaisical on the ball, but when defending he springs into action. I thought he looked classy, very easy to see why he has played games at England youth level. Some lovely touches/passes and his movement was almost pitch perfect. Very promising overall in a poor team performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First thing he said to be was he's a left sided centre back but will play anywhere to get a first team place. Doesn't find it easy playing left back/wing back as it's not natural to him. His words not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His words not mine. Bryan is not a left back either. And nor is Magnússon. We do not have a 'natural' left back at the club right now. Kelly is the best one we have. I would play him for the rest of this season ahead of both the two aforementioned, and we will see if get better and better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beni71 Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Great to see him getting game time. Well done to LJ for having confidence in him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephenkibby. Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 When it looks pretty certain that the play offs are out of reach, ( wont be long in coming). The likes of Kelly,Walsh, Elliason should be given plenty of game time. These are the players that Johnson has invested in for the future. well the future aint to far away August. So what better time to give young fringe players some competitive game time at the level we hope they can step up to next season. If Harry is to believed with his faith in Kelly let's have him in for the rest of the season. I know a lot will say hang on we can still make the play offs!!, but it's looking less likely by the game. The slick football has, apart from the odd game disappeared so let's get an early start for next season. O,Dowda was gaining confidence before his injury he is going to be a class player, he needs a few run outs before the season ends. Maybe a good thing when the top six is out of reach, Likes of Baker and Wright playing with injuries can maybe have a rest. I know a lot are worried about who we might lose but what the **** we can't stop that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So your judgement is on one game? astounding, coming in to a back four with changes in every position and Patterson his help. Give the boy 10 games then comment on his ability.

Shtanley Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Thought he was one of our “better players”, needs to run inside a bit more like bryan often does. Big stature and seems effortless when defending. Consider Bryan at that age. Kelly looks excellent already considering he’s very young and he prefers to play LCB. I wouldn’t be uncomfortable with Bryan being sold in the summer with Kelly as replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bristolcitysweden Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 I have high hopes for him but to me he was a disappointment. Looked as disinterested as the rest. Our academy don't know what tempo shifting is. A young man jogging around in the same slow tempo as the rest.. You can do far better Lloyd and you know it.

spudski Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 Having watched Lloyd Kelly, like Harry, I feel he is our best LB at the Club. For all the reasons that have been mentioned. Interesting when watching him, he's also probably one of the most athletic and best crossers of the ball. For me, Kelly at LB with Bryan in front, could develop into a lovely left sided partnership. That's just my opinion...however LJ see's Bryan as a LB, which he can do, but so many times lapses in concentration and positioning for my liking. He's far more effective in LM and wasted at LB imo.
