Bristol City (A) Match-Thread

[Tuna]

What has Enzo been working on the last two weeks?

[Ricey]

They are coming at us, which in theory should suit us, but we are just devoid of any confidence or composure.

Do think Fatawu and Mavididi are both victims of their own success tbf. 

 

Start of the season it seemed like everyone wanted to defend very narrow against us. Our wide players got so much time and space to work with. 

 

As soon as people realised the quality they had they've been marked extensively. A minute ago Mavididi was three on one down that channel and we don't have a full back threatening to overlap. 

 

With Doyle and Ricardo we've got two greater passers behind who can then exploit the gaps that are elsewhere and pick out free players. 

 

JJ and Hamza generally gonna do that less.

 

There’s nothing like the sight of Hamza on the ball with his head up, picking out a runner with a brilliant through ball.

 

Happens exactly as often as a solar eclipse, but far less predictable.

Shite go 3-5-2 with someone closer to Vardy. Two weeks off and it looks like they played last night.

Not great.

 

Did I see that stat that's the most shots Bristol City have had in a 1st half all season?

 

Isn't the way we play supposed to limit their chances, shots and play?

Allows us to control the game apparently 

[The Doctor]

Piss poor game, basically no running to support players, KDH looks like he's jus counting down the minutes until he leaves and you'd wish we could do the same for Faes and Choudhury.

 

Get Ricky on, I'd be considering Wanya for the sake of some work rate as well tbh

[StevieH]

Maresca needs to earn his wage now. Performances have dropped dramatically since beginning of season. Not looking anywhere near sharp enough.

[Sly]

I’m at West Midlands Safari Park, with zero signal and a sore Achilles. 
 

Bu the sound of it, I’m winning not being able to watch this game.

One clean sheet in the last 12 for them but obviously we're making them look fantastic. 

They don't look fantastic do they, both sides look poor

1-0 wins in the 101st minute?

[ronnup]

Very poor. Only having 2 wingers he will use is really damaging 

[Clever Fox]

We need to get Winks further forward and put someone in his position as he's the only one with the Passing ability to open them up.

Yep, we've lost the buzz to even counter attack at will. It should suit us, but we don't seem to want to get forward like before. 

[Kasey Keller]

Leeds and Ipswich sat watching that being served up….

[The Guvnor]

Bristol are closing us down extremely well but that’s because we are so fcuking slow with the ball.

I reckon with a couple of tweaks, we could absolutely control the second half..

Yeah, but it's Enzo.

 

You've got another 35, 40 minutes to wait until the reminder on his phone pings.

In the second half I meant just fall asleep like my cat Milo

[Shamomoa]

That was a shocking half they need to up it in the second half! Unfortunately (or fortunately) ill miss the second half! Need to get the 3 points!!!

[Fazzer 7]

For the life of me I can't see how the Faes can be a Belgian International. He shouldn't be starting in this side let alone Belguims. For christ sake put Coady in. The confidence in this side is through the fkin floor. Unless something changes drastically in the next 45 the best we can hope for is 0-0.

[Always Next Year]

Lucky not to be behind

[Gav_LCFC14]

He's just going to keep playing the same way. Insanely stubborn.

[Number 6]

Very poor quality. We just look completely lost of any confidence. Be very happy if we can pinch the win here because the performance so far doesn't deserve it.

[Kasey Keller]

Mavididi just stands watching instead of passing and advancing down the wing or into the box.

[Clever Fox]

Wilf is having a breather today after all his travelling. Mostly ineffective today.

[TMELcfc]

On and off the pitch, dog muck
