reddoc Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Just wondering where the thread is , so I can post on it. Had a fair amount of criticism on here , but ran the game in front of the back four today. Passing was precise and tackled like a little Billy Bremner. Best performance in a City shirt this season for me and I'm not even gonna mention the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit over the top as none of our players are capable of running the game but probably has the biggest heart for the smallest player on the pitch. Made his fair share of unforced errors but was the best of a bad bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor10 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 What a goal. What I like about him is that he works his socks off winning the ball back but importantly keeps the ball and recycles the play when he does. I still think he has another level to go up in performance as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddoc Posted March 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 He never deserved to be dropped from what I remember. Did he get injured?? Ithink they get dropped in some kind of random rotation don't they? Cunningham get's his game back and assuming he doesn't have an injury I'm unaware of immediately gets replaced. In fairness thought Williams had a good game today too but difficult to explain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comfortable on the ball, passed it economically, made one horrendous clearance from the six yard box in the first five mins, but I didn't see any other glaring errors.

Gillies Downs Leeds Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Ithink they get dropped in some kind of random rotation don't they?

Probably because we lacked height in the team what with Gillet & Elliott in midfield so we needed Williams extra strength in the air what with the long throws etc coming into our box.

UK0wnag3 Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Thought our midfield in general was much improved today, with Gillett a huge part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride of the west Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 He was very good today, chances of getting him perm? Very good chance I expect. Assuming hes getting on with everyone and likes the set up etc. Out of contract end of season I believe and I can't see any championship clubs coming in for him.

MichaelRobartes Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 He and Elliot played quite well. Pearson was ok too. We still weren't very good but I don't think that anyone was particularly horrible today, dug in when they had to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eco Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Thought it was a bit unfair matching him up with big Bayo but he seemed to win that particular battle, bit of an LJ role today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhalfofbristol Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I think if we can get Simon Gillet and wade Elliott on a permanent for next season, with pearson and Kelly coming back, Reid, Marvin and waggy we have a very capable midfield.

They'd all probably be on huge wage drops (Pearson is out of contract at the end of the season), and we won't get any of them if we go down. Wade Elliott is coming to the end of his career - he is 35 - I could see him accepting him a year in leagure 1 if we stay up. I'd imagine we'd be competing with smaller championship clubs for the other two. I doubt whether we'd want more than two of them anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I think he was dropped when we brought in Wade Elliott, thinking they were too similar for them to work together. But it worked. Seen it mentioned a few times SC doesn't rate Pack, Reid and Bryan are young and yet to find consistency. Marvin and Waggy injured. Pearson returns and maybe Kelly soon. Who knows what will happen from now until the end of the season, but a Elliott /Gillett partnership I didn't expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless my eyes have deceived me they have been mainly ineffective in a bottom four midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhalfofbristol Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 When Gillet was given a chance I personally believe he has impressed me, wade Elliot likes.having the ball which is something I like to see in a player. Wagstaff was our 3rd top scorer, bobby needs confidence which I believe he will start next season with, Marvin brings true passion in midfield.

Sorry , but given the chance we should looking to completely rebuild midfield. (unlikely though with contracts and the improbability of any takers ). What have you been watching this season ?

Strawberry2157. Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Saw Waggy as the game was finishing and said to him 'Get back soon' he gave me smile and a thumbs up so hopefully he's not too far away from fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, though if I was to keep one from Marvin, Pearson, Wade Elliott or Gillett for next season it would be the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagstaff was our 3rd top scorer, bobby needs confidence which I believe he will start next season with, Marvin brings true passion in midfield.The two Elliot's?...afraid they have both had their day and been decent players but to keep them?..The boss will get Marv off the wage bill and Elliot mk2 is a stop gap-no more.and as for Gillett,one good game and he is the answer?..jury still out at best..will be keen to see how Kelly shapes up as could be what's been missing.a lot of work to be done on the 'project'..let's face it many doubt the credentials of SC and fear another bottle job by the board so could be a rocky old ride.
