Lee Tomlin:

The first name on the summer wish list for many Bristol City fans is Lee Tomlin, who has made quite the impact since joining on-loan from Premier League side AFC Bournemouth.

Tomlin made 18 appearances and scored six goals, including a winning 90th minute free kick at Craven Cottage, and a superb flick and volley against Huddersfield Town.

The fact that Bournemouth have retained Premier League status may mean that he moves to City, and Lee Johnson has certainly made his desires to sign the 27-year-old clear, but the matter may well be out of his hands.

What is apparent is Tomlin’s skill and footballing intelligence. He can play as a striker, out wide or even behind a front man. Bristol City looked immeasurably more potent going forward with Tomlin in the side.
