2 hours ago, pride of the west said:
Only if he plays a certain amount of minutes or games apparently
If so, he has a whole extra season in the prem to achieve it

Although 4 at the back has served us well recently as it suits the players we have I personally feel we will go back to a 3-5-2 next season once we acquire the players we are after.
we will likely be getting a dominating ball winning cb in obrien to sit inbetween two ball playing cb’s.
pearson also loves our wing backs to get forward and join the attack. Despite what everyone is saying about wilson, I think he is part of the longer term plan to go back to this formation and compete with tanner. Equally if we signed bryan to compete with pring, it also leans towards the argument of wing backs going 100% every game for 45 mins and sharing the load to minimise injury whilst maximising on pitch output.
I also believe Pearson like two up top and another reason for my suspected formation change. Shared between wells, Conway, bell and cornick.
I feel the two deep lying playmakers/defensive midfielders would be shared between James, Naismith, Williams and Mcrorie with the two Scotsmen able to fill in at cb when needed/preferred.
the advanced playmaker to be scott if still around or shared between mehmeti, weimann, Sykes and Benarous on return.
overall, we should have a decent squad with numerous utility players to help cover in light of injuries. That’s just with three additions and without spending any money from a potential Scott sale. If we kept Scott then even better

Can we have Webster and Kelly back please also? Along with brownhill, eliasson and Bobby

Scott defo not giving it 100%. Would take him off we’re it not likely his last game for us
-
Have a feeling we would move on williams at end of contract. He’s not been cost efficient due to being injury prone. James has a lot more football to offer over the next 2-3 years IMO.

Brighton is the one team who not only will pay good cash because they realise the value in a player, but they will play him, make him better and sell him for significant profit (to our benefit) when the bigger club come calling. It’s a perfect fit

Heat map makes him look a sheff utd cb.

Sorry, missed the game today, why did mehmeti not even get on? Appreciate his decision making needs to improve but how is he going to improve if he doesn’t even play? Especially when there is rarely training due to the frequency of games.
-
Not just crossing but the shambolic movement of our players when a ball is being crossed in. They all run to the same place like a moth to a flame. Where are the different angles of approach? Where is the late runner to run in to the ball that is often cut back? Our final third play is shockingly bad and the reason we rarely get a positive goal difference of 10 or more over a season. We need some real quality and intelligence injected into our attacking play.

His kicking is also abysmal for a championship level goalkeeper. Would like to see cooper from plymouth (although looks like they are going up) and been fairly impressed with Horvarth who I think is at Luton on loan
-
Would love to keep him but someone else will at least match his current wages so can’t see him staying

Mad in this day and age of televised football that even when there is Bugger all else on, we can’t even watch our national u-20’s team play

Is there any stream anywhere to watch it? Struggling to find anything

I reckon minimum 30mill with add ons and a sell on would do it. 25mill or less just doesn’t seem enough. We need to maximise the fee as these chances come around once in a blue moon.
That being said, would rather he stay for one more year for a proper play off push and if we go up, he simply stays with us unless a grealish level offer comes in. We can only dream….

This is embarrassing to watch

Just like last time we played Man City in a cup match, our season went to shit after that. Getting dejavu. This is atrocious

Sleep walking right now. Cardiff will go 1 up if we keep this up

The guy just needs to be replaced full stop. Bring back Tim shires I say

Passing ability, or lack thereof, is what really is holding Williams back from being a top rated championship midfielder. It’s frustrating but I’ve accepted his role is different to that of James etc.
I think as soon as Naismith is back fit, we will see Williams back to the bench.

Things to improve:
williams passing.
olearys kicking.
get the ball to Scott’s feet more and let him dictate our forward play
-
How is Ben Acey doing? Still a way off first team consideration? Was hoping he may have a similar trajectory to Scott

I don’t really want to put a negative post following a fantastic win and performance by the team but one area that does concern me is the serious inability of max when it comes to kicking a ball. Game after game on numerous occasions he kicks it straight out of play under pressure or not, which then puts us back under pressure by conceding possession.
if he’s going to be our number 1 long term, he really needs to improve in this area.
Am I the only one that has noticed this? Thought it was worthy of discussion.- 20

Williams can’t pass forward for toffee but he’s our next best option in midfield with experience and an ounce of quality in that role. Unless we dropped Scott back and put weimann in at attacking midfielder

Hopefully Lansdown will sell up and move on soon as he’s taken the club as far as he can. Won’t have to worry about upsetting his ego. As grateful as I am for Lansdown sand his money, he’s not a football man and has often made poor choices when it comes to Bristol City. I for one am glad we have a man at the helm who knows what he’s doing and isn’t afraid to tell SL what’s what
