Tanner back in contention for Luton clash
- Published
Bristol City head coach Liam Manning has confirmed full-back George Tanner is available to face Luton Town on Thursday following a spell on the sidelines.
The 25-year-old was an unused substitute in the Robins' 2-0 defeat at West Bromwich Albion on Sunday after missing the previous eight league games through injury.
"George can do some minutes," Manning told BBC Radio Bristol.
"Naturally, when you've been out for a little while and you come back you've got to be a little cautious but you also trust in the work that the boys do because they do a lot of conditioning work, so George will be in contention."
However, Manning remained guarded on how far away Bermuda international forward Nahki Wells is from returning to first-team action.
"Nahki's been out on the grass. Hopefully if he responds right we can get him back in the group training on Christmas Day, but again we have to see how he responds to today."
