FT: BRISTOL CITY 0 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[Don Corleone]

The defence and keeper were excellent again, Nelson has become a very good Championship defender this season. The whole team worked very hard.

It’s a dilemma with Paterson, there are calls to start with Glatzel or Ward but both players make a better impact when they come on as a sub than when they start. Probably better to keep Paterson up front than having him as the impact striker

Some players looked shattered at the end- Hoilett and Sanderson looked tired. Ralls Vaulks and Bacuna are not the most skilful but they are very fit and work very hard and Bacuna has a very useful turn of pace

Margins are fine, Bristol city score with that free header and we’re all on here berating the players , instead it’s a great result and always nice to our one over the Wurzels

The margins have been fine in all three victories, but on each occasion I reckon City have looked comfortably the fitter, stronger and hungrier side, and they have taken some of their chances really well. To me, Derby look the only real threat now as regards sixth place, and they have lost several key players to injury and suspension, so it's looking pretty good.
