Bristol City boss Liam Manning was delighted with his side as they won 1-0 at relegation haunted Plymouth Argyle.

Manning said: “Before the Leicester game we talked about resetting after the international break and an eight-game 'season'. We’ve started well with the first two results now we've got an extremely difficult game next Saturday (at Sunderland) so let's not get too carried away.”
