Absolutely not a criticism of Winks here but I wish he was a bit more adventurous, he's miles above this level. He plays everything so safe, just want to see him ping a few balls through when we are on the break, or arrive outside the box and have a shot from 25. He's good enough.

Would be lovely, like you say he’s got the ability. But I think its a tactical decision. At least one midfielder has to sit and protect against counter 

[egg_fried_rice]

been well on top, but decision making and quality in the final third needs to improve.

[Tielemans63]

Need Mavididi and KDH to improve their final ball. That's the key to this game imho

[Izzy]

No drama. Still fancy us to win 2-0

[trabuch]

I think we'll grind them down in the 2nd half.

[Master Fox]

Nige got us by the scrotum here. BC decent team. 

[Guest kristianity77]

Not overly impressed today.  Plenty of the ball, and plenty of neat passes, but it's almost like we are trying to walk the ball in to the net when the 18 yard box permanently has 10 Bristol players in it. 

[whoareyaaa]

not bad need Kasey on and Nacho

[Chrysalis]

I need to stop watching our games, the games I missed we were scoring more, now I tune in, its back to looking clumsy in the final 3rd, midfield and our own third the play is fine.

 

In final 3rd it needs to be one touch, too many delays.

We scored after 20 seconds the other day

Right but that's not evidence that we have been sharp in the first half over the course of more than a decade lol. In most games I can remember we more often than not take far too long to really get going.

[Oldblueyes]

And Enzo gets upset with the home crowd. Open your eyes and look at the score and see why the crowd gets slightly frustrated.

[TommyK]

Some half openings. But not quite enough yet. Need to be better in the final 3rd.

FoxesHub is still b0rked for me.

I had problems on my iPad using Safari. Switched to Microsoft Edge and it’s been OK. Full screen works as well.

[Master Fox]

Why is Nige on crutches ? Fighting Wolves off in the woods again ? 

[foxfanazer]

Dominant half despite that little scramble. Need to sharpen up that final ball but it has to be said they're defending like their lives depend on it. Still confident we'll win

[Tuna]

Every home game will be like this, we have to find a way to get the goal.

[Clarkey123]

Vards looks like a passenger. Dosent look near to getting the ball or making a penetrating run when we break

Bit cliche but have you tried logging out of the site and then logging back in again? It’s helped some before when it’s not worked  

[Scotch]

Just need patience. Bristol City have defended very well in terms of shape and concentration. It's very hard to do that for 90 mins, they will tire and make mistakes.

Our attacks fall apart when KDH & Ndidi get the ball

Totally. The 8's have to do more, and move the ball much earlier.

[Guest Kopfkino]

The decision making and quality on the crucial passes have been woeful. Again attention to detail missing on the pass that actually matters

[adejo92]

Final decisions have been pretty awful & almost payed the price against a team that's offered absolutely no threat.

 

Need to get a goal early.

Thought the same

[Guest Manini]

Both wingers have got stuck in well and won the ball back countless times. Winks excellent again, Faes and Doyle both good. KDH just lacking slightly for me but he’s been in some good areas still. 

[WigstonWanderer]

Final balls have been crap. All aimed at Vardy but he doesn’t seem to be able to find any space.
