Wolf Island Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Don’t need him got four keepers all better than him. Worth a punt not a big deal it didn’t work out. All the best with your future endeavours Mr Lucic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you’re being sarcastic....but for those who do think he was the back-up to Bayern No1 Manuel Neuer....he wasn’t! He sat on the bench for a couple of European games, otherwise played in the Bayern 2nd team. Shame - thought he had the makings of a good keeper.

(2 appearances for City & a youth game) I don't mind him leaving, I completely trust our management's decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only played a couple of games for us, it’s a shame it didn’t work out for him or us....do you really think we deduced his ‘attitude’ from his DNA? This talk of DNA around the club is getting too much, it’s a term bandied around like ‘the project’ - it doesn’t mean a lot and I’m pretty certain we haven’t got a team of scientists measuring our club’s employees’ DNA...

I have no idea but it would be nice to see one good enough to sit on our bench/challenge for start soon if that's true and not coach speak.

I really hope nobody’s been listening to Mark Ashton’s interviews and genuinely believed he’s talking about actual DNA. If so, they should probably make it a priority to buy themselves some new jeans... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. I’m one of those who thought he looked great on his debut at Fulham and hoped he had the potential to be our future number one but I did not see him day in/day out in training and definitely trust the club’s judgement over mine. We have two other young keepers with potential and obviously the club think they are more likely to make it in the long term. Good luck to Lucic elsewhere but this helps clear a path for O’Leary or Wollacott to show what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could make it....whether that’s at this level who knows, but he’s gone into a struggling side at Solihull Moors, and kept a series of clean sheets (9games, 5goals conceded, 4clean sheets), to lift them from bottom 24th to 21st.

Yes I can, just don’t see why we are using the umbrella term ‘DNA’ to characterise a player, it’s being used so much. Sure we can investigate a player’s attitude, commitment, values, off field persona etc, but to call it DNA constantly is annoying. Bit like on here last season when just about every post (ok I exaggerate) included ‘agenda’, delusional’, ‘the project’ etc - argh! First world problems eh?!

Everyone we have here now has proven themselves to have the right attitude, commitment, values, off field persona, social life, family set up, lifestyle, etc. for Bristol City, and we’re really aiming to establish a clear attitude, commitment, set of values, off field persona, social life, family set up, lifestyle, etc. that becomes synonymous with Bristol City” Or... ”We need to make sure anyone we bring in has the right DNA. Everyone we have here now has proven themselves to have the right DNA, and we’re really aiming to establish it as the expected ‘Bristol City DNA’.” Nope, me neither. I’d understand if it were a new-fangled term that we’d invented and were pushing, but ‘DNA’ has been used to mean “the fundamental characteristics” of things or people for generations. Bristol City haven’t coined this usage. It’s become a buzzword for us, sure, but it means what it means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
