He's not shocking, he's just a young lad who will blow hot and cold and had a big hit to his confidence a few days ago. I'm not sure if he'll become a quality Championship player for the record, but he's not shocking by any stretch of the imagination imo. 11 Quote Link to comment

Now now, if you play really well but miss a one on one, it means you’ve played terrible and are awful. They are the rules. In the same way that if you play poorly and score a pen, you’ve played well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

mozo Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Well, we've been good in defence, good in midfield and great in attack... other than that we've been rubbish. 1 Quote Link to comment

All forwards at all levels go through it , by hooking him won’t do him any good either , I know it’s hard but really need to keep him out there and hopefully he nicks a goal from somewhere, that’s the only way to get his confidence back Quote Link to comment
Alessandro Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Well! It's a pretty nice first half - feels like the game isn't quite done yet though... Ironically, it's football reminiscent of Nigel Pearson that has got us the two goal lead - credit to Manning for the set up, we looked like a swarm of angry wasps combined with awful hesitancy by the Boro defence saw us snatching the ball twice in quick succession for 2 excellent goals. Knight composed, James classy. But from there, less good - Boro doing as you'd expect and sorting themselves out somewhat and then dominating possession for rest of half. They had a number of crosses, particularly down our left. - but on the whole we've been solid at the back, Max only needing to make one decent save. Credit for limiting their chances. When we did play a bit of Manning ball out the back, we've broken their press fantastically at times - but get well into their half, turn back and lose possession - very frustrating. Our best chances came on the counter or looking for another high steal. Quick mentions: - Tanner - deserves that RB spot for me right now. Cornick - best half I've seen from him - dominant in the air, running the channels well, good on the ball...set up Bell for a fantastic chance which he should have buried and ended the game. Next goal crucial. 2 Quote Link to comment

W-S-M Seagull Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Sometimes I swear people forget that footballers are human beings. Think we've discovered in this thread those that gave Bell shit for his penalty miss. Bell is a life long Bristol City fan. You will struggle to ever find a player of ours who it means more to than him. He's exactly the sort of player I want in our team! He missed a penalty against Premier league Forest just a few days ago which saw his boyhood club get knocked out of the FA Cup and miss out on a massive game at Ashton Gate. We all saw what it meant to him after the game when he was crying. Of course the poor lad is going to be a bit short on confidence. Let's get behind him ffs not give him shit for missing a chance when we're already 2 nil up. 8 1 3 Quote Link to comment
22A Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 1st half thoughts. Which formation today; it's looks so fluid. 3-3-1-3 then 3-3-1-3-1- then 4-3-3 and then 4-4-2. Whichever, it's working. Luke A appears to pose more threat than the rest of his team mates combined. Our midfield is aggressive in their play and when required, out muscle their oppos. 1 Quote Link to comment
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 (edited) Missed the first half hour as was otherwise engaged and phone flat What a pleasant surprise to see a) A sensible team selection and b) What seems like a deserved lead. Assist for Dickie, goal for James interesting. Should Knight medium term with a fair wind be aiming at 5-10 goals per season? Edit..Cornick starting is a turn-up.

TomSutton Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Cornick fantastic best half I’ve seen him have for us there should have had an assist there for bell. Look so much better when letting Pring occupy their full back and finally we are using our left side effectively. Forcing them to go wide so defensively for the most part looked in control of our box. Great half all round 2 Quote Link to comment
George Rs Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 Rapidly falling in love with Knighty, must be one of the highest distance coverers in the league. Got nice composure in front of goal as well. Tidy player. 3 Quote Link to comment

Tim Monaghan Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 We’re winning 2-0 and all I see is negative comments . Great first half performance all round. Cornick having a good game and so is Bell. Dominating again, but we’ve actually put some of our chances away. We should be out of sight, but these things happen. COYRS 1 Quote Link to comment
