Shows how ******* about with the ball with your CBs counts for ****-all. Imagine thinking you are the best head-coach in the world, yet can’t work out how to defend 31% possession! Love it! 1 Quote Link to comment

paignton red Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Just been reading their forum "We were dreadful..what's worse is that Bristol City didn't really look that great" Nothing about we sussed them out and nullified them. Arrogant tossers. 4 1 Quote Link to comment

Arrogant tossers. I may be wrong but I would like to think we were more complimentary when we got totally outplayed by Leeds. One of the most one sided 0-1s you are likely to see. This is one down side of a long successful run, it does lead to a skewed view of things. We see it on here after a short successful run!! 2 Quote Link to comment
Mr Popodopolous Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 (edited) Fair play, he gets some deserved stick at times but Martin was pretty even handed and gracious here. Praiseworthy even. https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/russell-martin-runs-rule-over-9099111 Edited February 14 by Mr Popodopolous 5 1 Quote Link to comment
pj76 Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 This game shows how much stronger Leeds are right now. As does pretty much every Leeds game. Very early on we looked comfortable with Southampton having the ball. They were doing neat triangles with their keeper outside the area. Fine by me. They never really got beyond that.

They were doing neat triangles with their keeper outside the area. Fine by me. They never really got beyond that. Think we saw two different styles. One fast, physical, powerful - with skilled players The other, measured, probing, a tad lightweight - with skilled players if you asked me who I thought we might get a result against pre-match, it was Southampton. We’ve shown in recent weeks we are organised enough to nullify West Ham, Forest and now Southampton. But Leeds are exactly the team style we struggle against no matter the skill of the opponent. 1 Quote Link to comment

In simpler terms, Leeds (at least the Leeds I watched) make a lot better use of the players at their disposal, especially the forwards. Southampton have similar players in Brooks, Sulemana and Edozie but didnt utilise them anywhere near as efficiently. Edited February 14 by George Rs 1 Quote Link to comment
mozo Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Edozie looked quality and he caused us problems, but they didn't get him on the ball enough. Fortunately, his two chances didn't go his way. Quote Link to comment
Davefevs Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 One other thing on reflection: is fatique a mental thing? and I don’t mean mental fatigue. Not a sausage on players being fatigued last night, they running hard to the end, subs made at timely points admittedly. But did Saturday’s win give us more energy “in our heads”? Southampton looked leggy, not us. I’ve said quite a few times of late, I think Manning rotates better than Nige (damn I mentioned him!), but for all the talk of schedule and fatigue it wasn’t evident last night? Of course you watch us blow out of our arses on Saturday! Quote Link to comment

redsquirrel Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 what is ubj, stumbled across this on microsoft news,subtitles are hilarious, call big Rob rodnicky Russell Martin runs rule over 'energetic' Bristol City as Southampton's stand ends in BS3 (msn.com) Quote Link to comment
cidercity1987 Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Love the Southampton fan on their forum claiming Mehmeti was offside as it was 'only a deflection off Smallbone' Imagine being offside from your own ******* pass , impressive Quote Link to comment
