No , I still think he’s too lazy . Don’t chase back . Godden is our main target man who moves around and looks for the ball more than Walker .

I’m not on about him scoring goals I’m talking about him putting more effort into the other part of his game .

I've not seen us press like that before, I imagine that's how city will approach games now until the season end...
The press yesterday genuinely knackered Brentford, one of the best passing sides in the division, and best counter attacking side in the league, they struggled from start to finish to deal with us.
We pressed very very high Compared to normal and were relentless in our pursuit of the ball , Kelly sat in the hole and hamer helped ohare, Biamou and Walker, da Costa and Maccallum... It worked perfect, they couldn't play their game at all.

Testiment to the fitness levels too, remember Bristol City opening day, lads looked cheesed... Come a long way.

We have to surely play this way all season now, Barnsley show that it's effective and can make up somewhat for ability and force mistakes / turn overs of possession...

Would hopefully see us finish the season strong

We had 38% possession but it felt like we were always on the ball, weird but great to watch.

Defenders did alot less pass side to side in our own half and we tried to play the matcH in their half.

Effective, very effective

Reading the Brentford forum, they say they should have sucked us into the high press then knock it over our pressing players into the space to run on to. Seems like a good option to push the high press back.
