Port Said Red Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 How did he do on his return? I saw a neutral report that gave him 7/10 so it sounded quite positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex_BCFC Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Solid - barely noticed we’d changed defenders as he slotted in well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampshire Red Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 Looked like he'd never been out of the side since April-was that his last game? He headed well, supported Kelly who also had a great last 30mins and seemed to work well with Kallas and NIKKI. Hope he starts on Saturday and we get to see plenty of others. If it's a painful result (draw) I'd like to see a lot of reserves getting on that magic bus oop north too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 After Webster went off I thought it would be a turning point in the game. Thankfully it wasn’t as Wright was solid. Really good performance, even more impressive considering it was his first game back in ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He absolutely did - thread at the time when he was getting pelters is worth reading Now, I think things have moved on a touch since then - and he’s behind Webster and Kalas at CB.

I seem to remember the course of events being: Wright plays through injury, has an average-but-not-great end to the season; not picked for Aus WC squad; therefore we decide to give the operation the go ahead after he didn't get picked for the WC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Wilson Posted January 1, 2019 Report Share Posted January 1, 2019 He’s missed the current Asian Cup squad too, so I hope he does well for us now. Feel bad that we (kinda) cost him two international tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Pisano injured or struggling to get back fit, our Captain played through injury. He was a shadow of the player who was our best marker last season.

I believe it was more just due to the tone of it. It was actually quite patronising, you do also have a reputation of making this kind of comment whenever someone questions something LJ says. Secondly LJ has said things, which are more likely lies, such as Diedhiou being brought in to play alongside Reid even though Reid wasn’t a Striker when Fammy signed. Finally Bailey Wright’s WC spot can’t be proven actually, it could all of been down to the injury and he’d of never of played anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 He came on and slotted in seamlessly, what more could you ask for. Was it him who cleared off the line or as good as, couldn’t see as it was down the other end? I think Pack handed him the Captain’s armband, no question he is seen as the Captain and he certainly set about organising straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brad blit Posted January 2, 2019 Report Share Posted January 2, 2019 I think Bailey was getting a bad rep amongst some City fans last year mainly because he was being played out of his preferred position (centre back) due to injuries/lack of squad depth, and struggled some games against pace wingers. But he’s always very solid when called upon and probably one of the best all round centre backs we have at the club. I’d say Kalas and Webster are first choice but it’s great having such good competition at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most managers LJ is quite capable of bending the truth but in this case I’d ask why would he need to?

Make them think that Wright put the club over his country. Give an excuse of why Wright wasn’t at top form last season (I personally thought he was okay at RB but a lot of fans thought otherwise).

As I said LJ can like most managers can bend the truth particularly if it’s to protect a player or in some cases protect the club. I dont have a problem with that. I don’t see it as a downright lie.
