Pointless stat alert:

Scored 9 in 18 games against us and the only club he's scored more against is Blackpool. First goal was in 2006. I remember watching him on Sky back then with my Dad at skittles!

Horrible to play against, but I'd loved to have had him in our team over the years. 

Sky clearly scrolling through OTIB for its stats tonight. Lazy. 

[Super]

Decent enough start.

Yes, like to see Weimann getting a bit more on the ball though.

typical awful shot from JD

He is one of the worst shooting football  players i have seen, continuously dragging the ball past the keeper's left hand post.

His two goals for Bristol City, have been a miss hit cross against Stoke, and a 2 yard tap in.

For me, I would be looking to improve in the LWB position in the summer, and he's definitely not playing well enough to justify a new contract as one of our higher paid players.

[Andy082005]

How we playing so far?

He's not really hit form this season so far

[downendcity]

Who is George Taylor that the commentator has playing for us?

Imagine he is on a undeserved high salary also...............need to get rid IMHO

Pearson clearly rates him and to be fair, I think we have bigger priorities to fill in the squad

[Lew-T]

Playing well but again too many aimless crosses.

[Bris Red]

Look good so far

[Lanterne Rouge]

They look decidedly shaky at the back.

[One Team]

Alex Scott looks 5 yards and several thoughts ahead of everyone else. 

[old_eastender]

Poor from Sykes then, could have cost us.

[And Its Smith]

The cross counter is back. 13 so far. 1 successful. Frustrating as other than crosses we are playing well

Norwood can`t deal with him at all.

[Portland Bill]

Too many aimless crosses into the box. Crossing for crossing’s sake. Not even from areas where the cross is likely to be dangerous.

We need some guile, one two’s etc, get to the by-line. We are very predictable imo.

 

[old_eastender]

Excellent driving run from Pring

[Super]

We need to make this pressure count.

[Bris Red]

Fair to say we are all over them

[old_eastender]

Great covering back from Wells to stop their break

But their keeper has had little to do.

[ProfitInMyPocket]

They're wary of us on the counter hence their passiveness but they've got the quality when a chance comes to take it.

 

[Lanterne Rouge]

Superb recovery run from Nahki. We were in big trouble if he hadn`t done it.

[Lew-T]

Stop crossing from 50 yards out.
 

Please. 

[NewquayRed]

If we had a wide man that could cross we'd be a proper threat for anyone in this division
