Bagan brilliant tackle
We’ve had 27 CBs this season and Joel Bagan is the best of the lot. Who’d have thought, not me.
1-1 FS.
Still feels like a loss.
Changes made the difference but far too late.
Riza's tactical pedigree in question.
The only time we get in behind them we score a goal, that was the only attack where we actually turned Bristol City defenders,and look what happened. Great ball by Ashford, lovely weight, the kid lifted his head, imagine that.... Well done Salech for being there....
Not sure whether that's a good thing really....Quote:

Great game from Joel Bagan…he’s really impressed me lately.
Great run and ball by Ashford but El Ghazi and Willock, both who did nothing, started or came on before himQuote:

It was nice to see one of our strikers tap in from a yard out, and i mean that, it at least means that there was a passage of play instead of the cut inside stuff that constantly comes to nothing.Quote:

Yup, although we need points, and that to me is a failure today, they weren't very good and we couldn't get around them until injury time. For me, that's poor. If i was ever good enough to play in that City side then i'd be walking off that pitch gutted. We need a run now. :thumbup:Quote:

We scored from the left, space afforded to us as oppose to the BC defending on the right, they probably saw what Willock offered!
The goal really was quality and as you said, Salech from a yard finishing it off is as good as a 30 yarder 👏
Edit: Defo needed the win though and will be interested to hear Riza's after match comments.
an even game, a few with some credit and some good character shown to fight for the equaliser.
it'll be very tight come the end of the season though
I suppose it feels better becaue it didn't look like it was going to happen, but i really did think that Bristol City lacked quality. How the hell they're in 7th position based on that performance is beyond me.Quote:

If he can do it consistently then we have a much better chance.
If only it went to penalties......
Deserved that at the end. Bagan did well, Ramsey was class when he came on. Ashford has the makings of a really good player, I think he's better than Alves, who had plenty of good moments. Strange game from Colwill, they literally couldn't tackle him to get the ball off him but he had one of those games where he's trying to do everything himself. Almost scored a great goal though and I loved watching him.
Every point counts now
Colwill is a real enigma, he went on some incredible strong runs and looks so good on the ball but it never seems to result in anything . I do wonder if he was in a better team more would be made of his play
Ramsey looked very good on the ball and played some incisive passes towards the end
Bagan defended well in his unfamiliar position and NG has to stay at right back now
Mannsverk worked hard though faded
No loss if we never see El Ghazi or Willock play again, neither contribute anything , just use Alves , Ashford and Tanner when fit in the wide positions ( and maybe Robinson and start Salech up front?)
Riza needs to be replaced by an experienced manager.
That's it.
Ashford must have been gutted to miss out on a Derby v Bristol City and he's just thrown on in hope at the end.
Poor team selection , too slow with subs.
Ultimately it's the boards fault for putting him in charge.
We need wins not last gasp draws.
Ramsey and Ashford to start against Plymouth. Maybe Salech too.

Tap in for Salech, but great movement to get in the right position and a bit of space away from his marker.
He does seem to have that knack of taking up the right position, and getting a perfectly weighted touch.Quote:

The new players all showed a bit. I’m confident we can stay up.
Ramsey looked quality when he came on. I hope he can stay fit and the extended time off allows that.
Let's not get into comparing who is the best between Ashford and Alves. Both of these young players have excellent futures ahead of them, if they keep on the same trajectory.Quote:
