00:00Bristol City head coach Liam Manning has praised his side's performance

00:04in their 1-0 home defeat to Swansea City in the Championship at the weekend.

00:09The Robins missed the chance to go into the Championship play-offs with the loss against

00:14the Swans but Manning was clear in that his side carried much threat for the majority of the game.

00:20He made clear that the Robins were very good on set pieces in parts of the game and that others

00:26were good in open play but that a sloppy five minutes contributed to their downfall in the game.

00:32He added that they have to now learn how to translate strong performances

00:36into wins, something they have struggled with in large parts during this season.

00:41The opportunity for Bristol City to move into the play-offs may have gone for this occasion

00:45but it is likely that because of how tight the Championship is at this stage of the campaign

00:50that they will get more chances if they are to continue picking up points at the rate they have

00:55in recent weeks.
