As i said earlier some of the stuff we play is excellent, we have some players whose first touch is a bit heavy but its getting faster which in my opinion is key. Piroe's work rate needs to be rewarded more, and Obafemi was direct today which gave him confidence. Again i think Pato was quiet and needs to get involved more higher up.

Not a game we deserved to win 3-1 if we're being honest.
Another day the aimless passing around the back and several errors doing so would have cost us dearly. There needs to be some sort of indication by now that there's a purpose behind it and there simply isn't. It's Worlds away from the previous possession based styles that we've used.
Still, biggest difference was that we took our chances and they didn't. Obafemi had an excellent game (the only one who did in the first half) and deserved more than one goal out of it. Piroe's goal will do his confidence good too.
Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Should have been four 😉
A great believer in taking anything you like to wherever you want to.

Some nervy moments for Fisher today. It’s a step up and I’m sure he’s nervous. Game time will help.
Perhaps he should have hustled Wiemman and force him to rush his shot. A very tricky off side call. I have re run this several times. Benefit of the doubt to the striker they say.

Will be quiet on here this evening
It shouldn't be. The second half was great, we had purpose, pace and looked a real threat which in the end we actually were. Still I have to ask why was Obafemi the only one driving forward in the first half? We made our own problems and it's just well Bristol are too rubbish to take advantage.
The second half it was all change. We were so much better in every department. We need to be starting games like that, we need to keep making problems for the oppo and cut out making problems for ourselves.
Again with Obafemi and Piroe on together we look more a threat and it was great for them both to score.
Not that everything is perfect. Still too much pointless passing in our own half, still not taking attacking chance and playing the so called safe pass and that led to their goal. We were on the corner of their box but instead of crossing it was passed back to central mid and it led to their goal. An observation, never give the ball to Fisher on his left peg!
Lets keep that second half going, lets take it into the next game, and the next and the next and keep doing it. lets not see that first half team again, or at least only rarely, please. At he end of the first half today I did hear boos, it was pretty poor. We are a Jeckyll and Hyde team and I only want to see Hyde please, lets be the monster that rips the oppo to pieces, not the mild mannered doctor that helps the oppo.

Won’t disagree with any of that. Grimes displaying huge non leadership skills once more. We can’t play this style without committing suicide and as you say when the press is beaten we need to capitalize on it - not pass the ball back. If we’d have lost this badly I think RM would have faced an ultimatum from his employers
