Match Day Thread Bristol City v Norwich

Gunn must be at half a dozen decent saves this game already

 

Gunn makes another great save.
Really under the cosh now

 

This is diabolical. No sense of structure, no game plan, no passion and no sense of team selection.

 

So so passive, we are giving each player at least 6feet when they receive the ball and then continue to stand off them.
No urgency on the ball, no running, no desire. McLean is the only one showing any positivity on the ball and he’s at CB - not had a bad game there to be fair to him. Barnes completely ineffective.

 

I keep convincing myself that things can't get any worse, but they do.
Gunny has kept us in this, but can we score? No chance

 

Maybe Batth has an injury, illness or another issue that Wagner has decided not to the world about. Agree about Hernandez & Gunn.

 

Well, at least we didn't concede in the latter part of the first half. I don’t think anybody is surprised we are losing. This season is becoming a shambles. Not sure things will improve even with Hanley, Sargent and Hwang back playing. The whole team seem disjointed and lacking any desire.

 

Perhaps buying a DM may have improved our powder puff midfield

 

Can't blame Barnes too much 3 games in a week on return from injury is far from ideal.

 

6 shots, none on target. 41% of possession. Surely there must be a reshuffle at half-time? Perhaps Batth on, MCLean midfield, Fassnacht on, Barnes at No. 10 and Idah up front. Gibbs and Hernandez off.

 

Batth is fit enough to make the bench ahead of Warner so must fit enough

 

Agreed, not his fault he’s been picked, but why Wanger can’t see how little he and Hernandez are being is beyond me. Gibbs is at least running channels and pressing with energy

 

The most bemusing thing is despite the stand off press we all seem ineffective at cutting off passing lines

 

****ing hell, we've scored, all be it an og

 

Best spell of passing from us and we score

 

Can Gianoulis try and claim that as his first Norwich goal?

 

Stream I am watching has Bristol City commentary. It's hilarious.
I know we are all biased, but they are a joke

 

I don’t know how it happens so often but particularly down the right I’ve noticed in recent games that we seem to stand up the player on the ball with 3 players and competely leave a runner to go in behind them down the side of the box

 

Yeah they’re awful. It’s grating on me everytime they say Gomez Sara or Lewis Gibbs - just making up first names

 

Rowe and Barnes off for Idah and Fassnacht
