Interesting thoughts from Leroy Rosenior in his local rag column...............

"We don’t want (Bristol) City going out there just trying to hold on, because we are not that sort of team.

I think Cardiff are that sort of team, where they smash it long and they fight and they scrap - and they always feel like they are the underdogs.

But Bristol City are a more positive side in terms of their possession and how they want to create and they have helped create an inspirational atmosphere at Ashton Gate.

City are not a side who are just going to try and nick a 1-0 - that is not how they play. They go and try and score goals, they try and be positive and they try and play good football.

There is an energy required to do that and it is so much braver to play like that than to play like Cardiff and just smash it forward and kick and scrap for it."

Do you think he's right and we are seen that way around the country?

What's more, do you think that approach (if right) will get us to finish above them - if so, can it be wrong?
plenty of lazy journalism being written about us this season when we come up against teams who try to play like Barcelona. we're a counter attacking team, that means we get the ball forward quickly and try to hit on the break. when we have possession though we still use that pace from the wings while also playing some very, very tidy stuff in and around the box (Zohore's second against Leeds is a perfect example of this)
