Has Matty James always had the hand cast? Or has he been watching Kodjia videos on his time off? 

Max’s distribution and ability to put it to the feet of a player on the half turn is so much better than Bentley’s, who can’t really do the latter.

We would kill for some of the individual talent of WBA… really don’t look like a team 

Just need to find those passes to release Semenyo and Wells

Vyner been excellent again.

Matty James best player on the park so far.

JD’ CROSSING IS AWFUL! GET IN!!!

It’s less frenetic without Weimann in midfield, I hope he comes up up front and not in the 10 if we are still level

Impressed with this midfield setup so far 

Baffling that Bruce couldn’t get a tune out of a squad of this quality.

I must’ve missed West Brom’s players being on the Ballon D’Or list. I bet Benzema was shaking in his boots.

4 minutes ago, Super said:

He came on against Wall and not even in the squad tonight.

He hardly has the best availability record. Far more likely that he has picked up a training knock than Nige going with 1 recognised left back in the squad I would think.

Suppose nobody has considered that Pring simply isn’t fit and Dasilva is the only player who can play there regardless of form?

We're going to win. Both teams will score.

Would love to see Weimann pushed out and Scott pushed into the 10 role behind two of Semenyo/Wells/Conway.

JET, my favourite ever celebration in the stands after that goal vs Rovers.

The large, considerably cidered man stood near us fell onto his back during the ensuing scenes. He was stuck like an upside down turtle, unable to get himself up, but arms up, absolutely elated, and still screaming in celebration. Took two of us pulling him up by an arm each before he could get himself to his feet. Good times.

As average as JD’s crossing is, if nobody is running between the lines when he has it in an attacking position then what else is he supposed to do? It’s not his game 

Agree with all above that you cannot drop Conway and Wells with how efficient we have been up front, and how effective Semenyo is from the bench against tiring defences.
 

However, rotation will need to come into this at some point. Conway from what I’ve seen has an incredible work rate. The worst thing we could do is let him get burnt out starting 3 times in 7 days frequently. Semenyo is hardly a bad option to bring in just to freshen things up for a match. 
 

I imagine Conway will be swapped for Semenyo when starting 1 of the next 2 games and definitely for cup games. 
 

However, I know Nige was imploring the Ghana manager to manage Semenyo’s fitness well when speaking on Radio Bristol before last night’s game. So maybe we will not see Semenyo starting games until after the international break. Seems that Nigel feels he still needs to be eased into it given his injuries. 

Naismith has not made any mistakes. He knows that players like Scott, Conway and Semenyo are too hot property to stay at Bristol City. He is keeping us just outside playoffs until after January where he’ll turn into prime Beckenbauer for our late title push. I won’t hear anything else. Some player.

Let’s move Naismith to midfield and replace him at the back with prime Emmanuel Eboue.

For those wanting Naismith out of defence: I’m curious to know who you would replace him with that would allow us to still play in the same way and be able to start attacking moves from defence by playing balls through the lines? Because I don’t see another player in our squad who can.

We are playing great football and just making some silly mistakes. Now is not the time to start messing around with the core principles of how we are doing that, meaning Naismith should keep playing where he is.

Wells goal according to sky sports 

I.LOVE.THIS.TEAM.

Get Williams on to shore things up.
