old_eastender Posted March 30, 2019 Report Share Posted March 30, 2019 Yes, well done to LJ today. A most unexpected win, down to him getting the tactics AND the team selection spot on from the start for once. IF he can keep that up and we could win at M'boro the players belief would be flooding back and then who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked much sharper today And we often seem to be able to turn it up a notch against teams we have ‘no chance’ of beating. We don’t always get a result but our performance and desire is often clear. Against teams we should ‘easily do over’ , eg the Bolton’s, Rotherhams, ipswiches of the League we more often than not struggle and rarely scrape a point.

Today is Lee Johnson day!!! Always Believe!!!!!!! Someone on the Sheff Utd forum agrees with you: “Johnson > Wilder Thought he won that match for Bristol today. After watching us dominate the first 10 minutes he changed Bristol to match us in formation packed the midfield and after that we never settled. Wilder was forced to abandon our usual 3-5-2 (something we haven’t done for a while) and I thought after that they were deserving of the 3 points. Three mistakes at the back were punished clinically by Weimann with too many players having off days today for us. But credit Bristol they exploited our weaknesses nicely. I trust we will be back to winning ways next week. UTB On a side note I can see why Adam Webster gets singled out for praise on twitter and in podcasts. looks like he would suit our system nicely...” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have flogged Pack and Brownie this year and they looked sharper. Think Korey helped which allowed JB to be more attacking. They all looked fresher. We are deffo in the mix now but it’s so close it’s ridiculous. This league is mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hampshire Red Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Lj simply showing at BL what most people have known for a while. He and Wilder are the best two English ma agers outside the Premier. Lj proves to be the better of the two. Great day out for Weimann, fans who travelled and our inspirational coach. More of the same on Tuesday would make it a lovely northern mini-tour. Hope Weimann recovers in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point, but in the context of a poor recent run, to beat a team that sat second, on their own turf, in front of 30,000, who hadn't conceded a goal in seven matches, and twice coming from behind, is a bigger achievement. But that's just my opinion and watching us beat Manchester United was one of the greatest nights of my life. We're blessed to be City fans.

At times more like being cursed! But a great win yesterday and I put our excellent away form down to me not going to any away games this season. It seems to be working, BTW I'm not going to 'Boro either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im confident he’ll start at Boro. Except he took a very nasty knock and limped off when he was substituted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the club returned to Bristol to get the lads patched up by the medical and sports science boffins. Our facilities are very good . Hopefully they’ll get AW in the ‘ cold room ‘ to make him fit for Tuesday. As an aside, I like Bramall Lane , a proper old ground with a good loud support and atmosphere.
