PELTS: A WINNING MENTALITY

Club News

Lee Peltier spoke to Cardiff City Player HD after the Bluebirds' home win over Sky Bet Championship rivals Middlesbrough.

The City defender was quick to praise the performance of the team as a whole, before looking ahead to next Monday’s Severnside Derby against Bristol City.


“It was a great defensive display – not just from the back four but from the whole eleven," said Lee. "We were very aggressive today. We pressed them and didn’t give them much time to play, and when they did, they couldn’t break us down because we were solid as a unit.

“That’s the stuff we’ve been working on and we've done it for the whole season, so it’s good to get our second clean sheet on the spin.

“We go into every game with the same mind-set, looking to win, and I think our performances at home have been really good.

“Now, we’re looking forward to Monday. I’ve played in derby games everywhere I’ve been. It gets you up and firing a bit more to have the bragging rights, but for me it’s just about getting the three points."
