CliftonCliff Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 3 minutes ago, JamesBCFC said: Yes and no. We struggled to get our half, but until they scored there was no real threat at all. The goal itself was a very good one, and after that it was more nervy, but in the first 40 minutes of the second half they created nothing of note. Exactly right. Rock solid defensively second half up until a very good individual Derby goal. Lots of possession, but they did very little with it. Nervy at 1-2 naturally, but in my book we deserved the win. Some top individual performances. Massengo; Moore; Baker; in fact all the back three. Very happy with that, especially in the light of another massively unlucky injury situation.

Southport Red Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Brilliant shithousery from Bentley. Started time wasting in the 60th minute. Hate it when opponents do it, City don’t do it enough. Well done son Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most positive notes from my point of view were Moore (a rock),Massengo (impressive) and Palmer (intelligent play). COYR!!! Very. Shocking he is only 18; think we’ve got ourselves quite a find here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denbury Red Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 A great win - it’s just a shame we don’t seem able to pass the ball around safely when leading. Every other team seems to do it to us - but tonight in the second half all we seemed to do was get rid (very well) of the ball out of defence only for it to be given away almost immediately- there seemed no ability to put the proverbial foot on the ball and keep possession to take the pressure off for a few minutes. That said - a great 3 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTRFTG Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Brownhill and Massengo immense as were the 3 at the back. Shame KP picked up a knock as with others able to do his donkey-work he has the creativity we've been seeking. Decent, honest and hardworking performances from the rest and Afobe not only showed us what we've been missing when he was on but even moreso when he went off. The Mock Mick was defensively tied up when he came on but for me didn't hold the ball enough or play the percentage game, though that's a minor quibble given we saw the game out. Didgeridoo really needs to think about his future as even as a last 20 minutes man that simply wasn't good enough. He's there to compete and hold and delay and tonight he again did zip. Fantastic result and performance City should be proud of. Lots of positives on which to build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Excellent win, but we only just got away with it. In the second half we just didn’t keep hold of the ball and invited pressure. Good atmosphere in the ground and I enjoyed the Massengo chant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best enjoy him while he's here, because it won't be long before the vultures are circling. He has the type of footballing intelligence that can't be coached.

OldlandReddies Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Have to say I got it horribly wrong with Massengo. Didn't think he would be ready but that kid has some engine and his game awareness is incredible for one so young. He will be an exceptional player. Unbelievable that we have picked him up.

BCFC Grim Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Great result and actually relatively comfortable. That said I'd like to see us hold on to the ball a tad more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Our weak spots were our wing backs but they battled away like their lives depended on it and were ably supported by the three CBs and the midfield. Weimann is an intelligent player and we will see the best of him now that we have a midfield worthy of the name. An excellent away team performance. Well done lads and to the Red Army singing their hearts out. Derby lack a creative midfield and Josefzoon is a one trick pony . They need to shift out their dinosaurs Huddlestone and Keogh who are no longer effective. Brilliant result . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Rocks Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 It was probably the best defensive display we’ve seen in a long time - how many real saves did Bentley (who was good by the way) really have to make. The stop low down in the first half was excellent, but apart from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidercity1987 Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 ‘Gave them two goals’ Derby fans ’Gave them two goals’ QPR fans Corr this is good, I hope the other 21 teams are watching and learning how to ‘give us two goals’.

Jerseybean Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 In a nutshell.....two well taken goals, a solid defensive display, an excellent Derby goal made for a nervy finish. Massengo covered every blade of grass, great to see Moore, Kalas and Baker growing in confidence, too many long balls to Benik and then Fammy, thought Benik ran out of energy in the second half. Great noise from the travelling fans. We are certainly very much a work in progress so three points away at Derby, who we restricted to very few chances, brings a huge smile to my face!
