He's been garbage for them on the whole so not sure where you've got that from. Shame, but I guess that's what happens when you've not played competitive football for six months.

Shame, but I guess that's what happens when you've not played competitive football for six months. Live in Bristol, friends with countless ST holders and have watched him play v Derby. So yeah, that’s where I’ve got that from. Made one mistake v Brum on debut in a tiny cameo, great v Derby, not bad v WBA was probably one of the only players to come out of that game with any credit, ill against Leeds so didn’t feature off the bench, then obviously tonight hasn’t gone well. Still highly rated by Bristol City fans who admittedly don’t know much about him.
Foxxed Posted 25 February 2020 Posted 25 February 2020 KDH got an assist, a goal, a card (for "excessive celebration") and surely motm tonight. He's on two goals and one assist in just under 600 minutes. I never thought much of him in the academy but he seems to be taking his chance to impress with both hands. Blackpool are 14 points adrift with a game-in-hand from fifth in the table, Josh Knight's in-form Peterborough.

Had this been in the premier league there would have beeen a muted celebration as we all waited to see if VAR decide if the ball brushed an arm. Followed by relief rather than elation.

Yes that's true. And oddly there would have been more people watching.
davieG Posted 26 February 2020 Posted 26 February 2020 Lee Johnson has criticised reported Derby County target Filip Benkovic among others following Bristol City’s weekend defeat, the BBC report. Bristol City lost 2-1 at Huddersfield Town. Their third straight defeat. Benkovic was a reported target for Derby County in January. The Telegraph claimed in late December how the Rams were hopeful of signing the centre-back. The Robins, however, won the race for the Croatia international. Benkovic has come into the Bristol City starting eleven. He ironically scored against Derby as Lee Johnson’s side beat the Rams 3-2 at Ashton Gate earlier this month. But since then he has struggled. And Johnson felt a couple of his new signings had put in an ‘upsetting’ performance in the defeat at Huddersfield Town. I feel upset. As upset as I’ve been watching one of my teams with players I’ve signed. It was a very difficult watch. was substandard. I think a couple of the new players need to have a look at themselves' Benkovic?

With Toure, Evans and Wes to learn off he should progress quickly. Now we have Bennett we can afford to be patient.

Blanchflower78 Posted 27 February 2020 Posted 27 February 2020 Benkovic struggling at Bristol. Hooked at half time and now manager come out criticising the new guys there. I know we all got excited about him returning from Celtic but standard is below championship up there if you play for Celtic. Clearly even when fit club haven't been sufficiently impressed enough to include him more often. Feels like a player who will sadly move on for very little and well put down to experience...

I'm not sure how many on here have actually watched him play to pass adequate judgement. He got subbed at half time as was on a yellow and they were a goal down chasing the game. Not sure how relevant the manager's comments are, from the looks of their Twitter a lot of the fans are unhappy with his team selections and tactics, could be trying to deflect blame to save his job? Plus with being not match fit... Still too early to say, I think.
Ric Flair Posted 27 February 2020 Posted 27 February 2020 What level is Andy King going to end up at next season? Barely gets a sniff for a struggling Championship side, it's quite sad to see. I blame Puel.

Johnson is under severe pressure at the moment so I sense deflection.

Lambert09 Posted 27 February 2020 Posted 27 February 2020 Theres a conspiracy among Bristol fans that there is a clause in his loan deal that he has to start if he's fit. I would hope thats not true, as he needs to at least earn his chance. But the fact that the fans have that theory paints a telling picture about how poorly its gone so far.

I really hope not, although I've seen no more than anyone else, I have been impressed, his passing has been as good as any centre half I've seen here and he's not scared to bring it forward, he also seems adept at finishing, hope it works out for him here.

It takes time to build a relationship with the other CBs and DMs ,its early days yet so mistakes will happen , but that's what happens with loan deals particularly with critical defenders. If it was Jonny playing alongside him mistakes would be much less likely.
Spudulike Posted 29 February 2020 Posted 29 February 2020 Benkovic dropped to the bench. If there is a clause in the loan deal that stipulates he must play then BC are going to be owing us some money at this rate.
