What a sight to behold. Now hoping Preston, Rotherham and Stoke can do us a mighty big favour tomorrow.
Is Archie really only 17, love the fact he's added that bit of aggression now, he won't get pushed around. Gruev is really making the position his own. I think Rutter has to realise you can pass to someone else other than Summerville.
Meslier - 7. Not much to do again as the defenders kept him redundant. Did manage a good save with Bristols best chance. Gray - 9. Exceptional for a 17 year old playing out of position at full back. Was very good in midfield too. Rodon - 9. Led the team and was completely dominant yet again. We need to find a way to finance a permanent move for him this summer. Ampadu - 8. Perfect foil for Rodon. Had a dodgy moment 2nd half but recovered well. Firpo - 5. Not the attacking force we have seen recently and gave the ball away dangerously on a few occasions. Couple of unnecessary fouls thrown in after overcommitting. A few blocks in his own area bumps his score up. Gruev - 9. Great cover, neat passing, good awareness and a grafter. His influence is growing in that holding role. Kamara - 8. Back to his best. Much better than recent performances and but for a heavy touch should have scored. Georginio - 8. Lots of room for him to operate but never quite made the most of it. Missed a good chance 1st half. His talent and influence on the game was obvious but the end product was missing. Summerville - 9. Did everything but score. Outstanding workrate. Gnonto - 7. Very quiet 1st half. His goal sparked him in to life for 20 minutes and he looked like last seasons player for a spell. Defensive work was very good and infectious to others. Looked tired when dragged off. Hopefully the goal sparks some confidence in to him. Bamford - 5. Made plenty of runs and never got the service. Got an assist. Other than that he was poor on the ball and struggled to have an impact. Subs. Anthony - n/a Byram - n/a Piroe - n/a
I guess our Irish friends are getting well oiled tonight. Leeds win and they stuff the frogs in their own backyard .
Let's be honest mate, only poor finishing from us was the only reason it wasn't 5 or 6, score wise you wasn't blown away, game wise we were a different class. Hope you find your form against the Saints though
Job done. 17 points clear of 7th place. Was it us that made them play badly because so many suppoerters say that when they lose to us? To be fair it was a quick turnaround for them.
I've only seen Bristol City a handful of times this season and we made them look very ordinary tonight. They are better than that. I'd like to think we made them look poor.
Last 5 league games we’ve restricted the opposition to 6 shots on target. Archie Gray out of position - When you are 17 are you out of position or still learning and discovering your best position Summerville was great off the ball tonight, he didn’t get knocked off it easily either when in possession. Great win and clean sheet, an interesting weekend ahead
No shame, we were beaten by a better quality side, well done you, have a good season and cheers Elland for the contact, congraats.
This year we've played 7 games. We've won 6 and drawn 1. Firpo played in all the wins, he came on against Brum in the 18th minute. He didn't play in the draw against Plymouth. In those games we've scored 14 and conceded 2. He's got 3 assists. Don't you think it's time you gave him a break ffs? He's not perfect by any means but we do seem to be playing well when he's in the team. Giving him 5 is a piss take.
I thought we played really well sort our scoring boots out this team goes up automatic. The league is sorted already to me the top 4 are the only ones challenging the Prem spots and my money is on the 3 going down will go back up.
The defence was brill tonight, so much so Meslier only had one save to make and i closed my eyes please log in to view this image
Another thing everyone thinks Leicester are going to blow this league away they really not. They've had no pressure so far this season a couple of losses and they right back in this. Lose a game before they play us and if we beat them its down to 3pts they are far from home and hosed.
