Watching Bristol City v Leeds Sykes doing nicely right wing back up against tough Leeds wingers. I'd like to see him in the aquad as a right wing or full back option.
Mcguane looks aggressive and tidy as well if he coukld get a dispensation to come back to us
For a few minutes (Sykes was subbed) there were 5 Ireland-eligible players on for Bristol City: O'Leary, McNally, Knight, Sykes and Armstrong. It must be a while since that happened in Premier League or Championship?
Wasn't there a match a few seasons ago where about 10 Irish players played in the game? I think it might have been in League 1 though, Lincoln v Portsmouth or something like that.
Sykes has lost his place at Bristol City recently to their new Japanese signing Hirakawa, so good to see him getting a start today.

The Sky Sports report that Stoke have made a bid for Sykes has been picked up by Stoke on Trent Live. His season has been interrupted by a hamstring injury, but he has made 16 appearances for Bristol City, including five from the bench. He has been played as a wing-back in recent games, but probably prefers a more forward role. Stoke, having lost Tom Cannon to Sheffield Utd and Mannhoef to injury, need reinforcements up front and Jon Walters may have had a word.
He scored for them today.
