    Who have been Bristol City's five best players this season?
    Laurence Morgan

    The Robins are toiling near the bottom of the Championship table after a promising start to the season.

    1. Tammy Abraham

    It’s difficult to start anywhere else. The nineteen year old Chelsea loanee, with lightning reactions and a poacher’s instinct, is third in the Championship scoring tables with eighteen goals in his first season of men’s football.

    2. Lee Tomlin

    After inspiring City to Championship survival last season, most would agree that Tomlin has failed to hit the same heights following permanently switching from Bournemouth. However, in a struggling side, he has still provided moments of magic, like his free kick against Aston Villa in August.

    3. Josh Brownhill
    There is plenty of competition for midfield places at City. However, alongside Bundesliga veteran Jens Hegeler, 21-year-old Brownhill has made the place his own, covering a huge amount of ground every game and generally impressing in all areas.

    4.Hordur Magnusson

    Icelandic international Magnusson has recently been out of the side recovering from an injury. Prior to this, the defender had brought a cultured style and calmness to City’s defence – though the man in his place, Bailey Wright, is also gaining praise from fans and manager alike.

    5.David Cotterill

    Cotterill only joined on loan from Birmingham on January transfer deadline day, which shows how slim the pickings are for City. However, in a few games, the 29-year-old winger has already chipped in with assists, a high workrate and a keen eye for deadball situations.

    100% Tammy without his goals, we would be relagated already.

    Can't argue with Tammy.

    I quite like O'Dowda though. We seem more 'positive' when he plays.

    I may be in a minority here, but I have been really disappointed with Tomlin this season. Ok, being played out of position may have had a lot to do with it, but he just doesn't seem to be the player he was last season by a long chalk. He would not be no' 2 for me.

    Tomlin has been a disappointment. Become beyond poor regularly maybe more regularly than his good games.

    Abraham without a doubt
    Hegeler or O'Neil maybe, and then you will struggle to find another outstanding candidate.

    However, next season is Taylor's for the taking if he steps up to the plate

    Still not relegated though are they? Plus in hindsight if we never had Abraham we probably would not of sold Kodjia so no one can comment on what if they didn't sign. So you're a Nellie as well

    I stated not relegated yet you reiterate it, though as a question ... what has hindsight got to do with Kodija and Tammy to do with my comment they are almost there?
    ROTHERHAM is 5 wins and a draw from safety and played 2 games more so just 13 games 39 points to avoid relegation ... they are a no bet to avoid relegation if you think they can then most bookies will give you 15,000 -1
