'We know exactly what to expect from Cardiff'
Bristol City defender Aden Flint has been looking ahead to this weekend’s derby.
He’s expecting a bit of the rough stuff from Neil Warnock’s side when the two teams meet at Ashton Gate on Saturday.
Here’s what he said in an interview with the Bristol Post...
“I think we know what to expect against a Neil Warnock team.
“We’ve played against them enough times now and Rotherham was a good example last year.
“We know what his teams are all about; it will be tough, it will be physical and there will be plenty of balls coming into our box.
“We will need to be switched on to that and it will be a case of us having to earn the right to play our football.
“We have a big squad now that the new boys are here and that should help us compete physically. Cardiff are a big, strong physical team and we now have the players to counteract that.
“Neil Warnock sides have been doing it for years and they put it on us at their place. I think it shocked us a bit, but I’m sure we’ll be ready for it this weekend.”

What a turnaround to hear opposition say "Cardiff are a big strong physical team" when you think back to first part of the season there was no fight or determination in any Cardiff players.

'Big strong physical team'?
Not sure I agree with that. We haven't got anyone in the midfield over 5' 10" and weighing more than 80 odd Kg.
Zohore up front is a big lump but hardly physical.
Peltier tackles hard and I would only describe Morrison and Bamba as being anywhere close to being physical!
