In fairness that eleven looks rather lightweight & unbalanced 

What would you change to make it less so? I mean Conways injured, Wells hasn't exactly been getting on the ball a lot, Sykes hasn't delivered anything really yet... I think the team has kind of picked itself.

Easy entry today, I finally found the sweet spot on my phone. 

There's a first time for everything

A bonus? We are playing Birmingham not Leicester. 

Two even teams that I fully expect us to try and win. To see it as a bonus is very pessimistic. We should be looking to be winning our home games.  

I don’t doubt that we will try to win; I simply think their XI looks stronger than our XI - and that’s why I’d take a point. Hopefully I’m wrong.

But he's not a striker.

Silly pass by Vyner there, sometimes he pings those well and other times he gives them the ball in the final third, I wish he'd play it a little safer in those positions, he did a few of those last season.

Just giving us a little flash of the old Vyner of a couple of years ago. Just reminding us how it used to be. Ah, nostalgia.

Birmingham look good

I'll pass on the Nostalgia, Vyner of recent is much better, leave it in the past 

[pillred]

Why do we play so many long balls out from the back ?

It's weird, Ashton Gate seems to be so quiet these days, it's pretty sad because a loud Gate can really hype the players up.

In this game it's because Birmingham are pressing us really high in our own half and stopping us playing short.

because our fullbacks have their options marked out and our CM's aren't mobile/active enough to create spaces from their markers forcing the options to disappear and then Max has to hoof it out, it's one of the issues we've had since going back to 4 at the back.
