    Offensively, this is the best I have seen us for a very long time. Possibly even back to LJ’s heyday - as unpalatable as that might be for some on here.

    Any coincidence we look more threatening in attack without Twine in the side? 4 goals in 2 games without him. Have the team felt they need to out everything through him when he plays.

    Armstrong is so annoying being called offside on too many occasions when we are in prime position.

    Well, pre game, and certainly after 15 mins we’d have taken a point. So to come away disappointed not to get all 3 shows what a great effort from the team.
    4 points from 2 away games is still a good return.

    Credit where it is due 2-2 would take that at being 2-0 down.
    We played some excellent football after going 2-0 down.
    Their goalkeeper was mom.
    Nicely set up for a monster game against Leeds at Ashton Gate.

    We weren’t the same once he came off. Mayulu would have been a better option than Armstrong as well.

    Possibly, but they went five at the back due to Wells niggling them. There’s a lot he does off the ball, and comes back when needed.

    Armstrong never got off the bus, lethargic and 3 times unnecessarily offside.
    Obvious why they pick Wells, although if he's the best we've got it doesn’t say much about the £6million we spent on Armstrong and Fally.
    Fully deserved point, a bit unlucky not to come away with a win.

    I suppose a draw was a fair result and we gained 4 out of 6 points on the road and that's good in my books. How much longer will it be before we field a team that can play a high tempo game every time out? The subs did make a difference today but I question Armstrong replacing Wells today as it would have been a feather for Nakhi if he got the hat trick. Twine and Mayulu look to be off the radar for a starting place and when you look back on the efforts to sign them both, currently they both look poor purchases and I wonder how that money could have been better used? There are and were times when we played the way we all want to see which makes me wonder if the January transfer window has already targeted some replacements to make the squad more competitive? I damned well hope so.

    I’d start him over Anis v Leeds. He's impressed me in all but one game he’s played.
