In brief: Pre-West Bromwich Albion (A)
Tuesday, September 18th 2018
Assistant head coach Dean Holden and Jack Hunt look ahead to City's away fixture with West Bromwich Albion.
Below is a summary of what he had to say ahead of Saturday's (September 15th, 3pm kick-off) Sky Bet Championship clash.
DEAN HOLDEN
- Holden says that while squad morale is high, he stressed the importance of the players not getting ahead of themselves
- Consistency is key - he said that the day-to-day, behind the scenes preparation has remained the same since the first day of the season
- Holden also reflected on City's last game against Sheffield United, saying the second-half changes gave the Robins a strong hold on the game
- He was asked about the 3-5-2 system and said the players are more than capable of adapting to new situations
- Holden said both he and Lee Johnson watched West Brom in action last Friday and said they look dangerous in attack
- He praised the City squad’s strength in depth and expects more players back from injury over the next few weeks
- With 1,500 fans travelling tonight, Holden said the away support can have an incredible effect on the players and they can help them get over the line
JACK HUNT
- Hunt is really enjoying his football in BS3 and says he has settled in well
- The right-back is pleased with the current form but reiterates the squad won't get carried away
- "Everyone is really focused on the task ahead" said Hunt, as the team look to secure their fifth-straight win
- City have done their homework on West Brom and believes if he and his teammates are on top of their game they can "cause a lot of problems."
- Hunt is looking forward to seeing 1,500+ away fans at The Hawthorns and insists their support can give the team an "extra boost"
City supporters are able to pay on the night at The Hawthorns, with 1,500+ travelling fans already heading to the fixture.
