Every good team needs game changers off the bench! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 One thing that we rarely see at City is finishing off the opposition in clinical style . Two quick fire goals killed them off psychologically and they were beaten at precisely that moment. Earlier in the season, with our injuries, we played a loan striker , it wasn’t expansive or pretty but it was very affective. It started to go wrong when we started to believe the praise heaped on the side as we consolidated in the top six . We were pragmatic today , it wasn’t pretty or expansive but it was affective. Well done to Lee and the boys , a win is a win . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Pato shows flashes of excellence, and (although lightweight) isn't scared of his own shadow. I'd take him over COD at the moment. Now if COD decides to step up his game, that might be a different story... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Aside from the game; or those old enough to have been there; was the atmosphere better at Springfield Park than the DK? I accept the DK is far more comfortable, but as for match atmosphere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offside Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 Really pleased with the win. Sounds like it was another indifferent performance, though, which continues to be a worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like it was another indifferent performance, though, which continues to be a worry. It got better, but for more than an hour it was not good viewing. Struggling against a side that looks a good bet for the drop. I swear if we were still playing, the scoreboard would read Wigan 0- Not many Championship teams would have let us get away with that hour, i swear.

real_bristol Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 I really effing enjoyed watching that (on Robins TV) today apart from Weimann, I thought we were absolute class. Yes, we may have been punished against a better team but against a better team we would have been set up differently. Wigan didn’t really look like scoring. Our performance was a complete and professional team effort. Famara was the best I’ve seen him and was never off side. He also carried Wiemann IMO who was guilty of greed, not looking up and shooting from impossible angles instead of passing or holding up. I’ve seen so many games where we have played like and been in the same position as Wigan. Playing “well” having large chunks of possession and getting nothing from the final third in a month of Sundays. I believe it’s about adapting to your opponents in this league and that is something we are learning and coping with more regularly now due to strength in depth. I don’t want to get carried away with Weimann but I would have preferred to have given one of the younguns 90 mins today, although I suppose Andreas played his part in a team effort. Have a feeling Tuesday will be a similar game or perhaps tougher in terms of confidence. A couple more wins on the run and we’ll have our bounce back. 3 more wins this season and we’ll stay up. Up the City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 3 hours ago, BRISTOL86 said: Agree. Though it’s normally a good yardstick for who’s opinion isn’t worth much when people can’t make a point without personal insults. Same reason I stop reading anything that contains ‘Wee Lee’ or similar. I understand, and you make a very valid point. If, however, you are referring to the London-based poster who refers frequently to 'Wee Lee', whilst I share your criticism of the term, I would suggest you persevere and read his posts for, that derogatory term aside, they are generally astute and very much to the point.

And a smash and grab against Wigan in which we were severely outplayed for 70 minutes doesn’t make everything ok. So revel in the win, absolutely. But those Johnson supporters who enjoy the oneupmanship of the win over those of us who don’t back him will soon realise how limited he really is. Johnson supporters equate to City supporters..... so whilst he is Head Coach I cannot hope the team loses...ever, however you and yours will do and continually make yourselves miserable more often than not, suggest you stay off here then with all the negative comments that ruin it for the majority.

Garland-sweden Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 A good win and clean sheet. Good for the confidence. Pato can be very good when he wakes up on the right side.

Guest Posted January 11, 2020 Report Share Posted January 11, 2020 2 hours ago, Northern Red said: To be fair, I haven't noticed anyone who seems upset that we won. Quite a few saying it doesn't change their opinion, which is fine and frankly I'd be surprised if one win off a largely poor performance did. What'll be more revealing is the people who won't be on over the next couple of days. We all know who they are. Great 3pts today, how did we do that against a team who had 70% of the game, 17shots-7 on target, still next...........we are quite likely to beat anyone in this div unfortunately the reverse is also true. We have a lot of players, too many imo yet still need a couple more, hence recalling Pato. I would still prefer a more exp manager but also believe LJ is going no-where for a while yet so, on to the cup then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
